You already run the whole firm. Now four teams argue with you before you commit to anything.
24 advisor seats, 28 working skills, and the memory architecture of a real firm, installed into Claude Code, the environment it all runs in. Every piece arrives plug and play, with its own instruction document.
RBD., a real one-person advisory firm, runs on this exact environment every working day, and its complimentary manual documents all of it. The box ships the whole operation.
Logged and indexed, alongside a full client workload. You install it in one business day.
So what actually changes, once it is already built?
Not a tip sheet. Not a prompt pack. An installed structure that carries what you now carry alone.
Each seat is one advisor with one job. A strategist seat does not price anything. A pricing seat does not weigh in on contract risk. Several narrow seats behave like several advisors. One general assistant behaves like whoever asked the question.
Every seat is one file with one job. All of them report to you.
Actual screens from the working firm. Numbers and client names blurred; everything else is real.
Each seat is an agent, a one-page job description for an advisor. Every sample below shows the real shape of the file. The full manifest, itemized piece by piece →
Each line states what you gain. Hover or tap any skill for the design logic inside it. Each skill arrives with its own instruction document plus a prompt pack for fitting it to your firm. The environment write-up walks every one in full.
cosYou open each day knowing the top three things that deserve you, and what to ignore.
Every decision reaches you framed, with options and a recommendation. The seat filters and drives; it never decides, and it never chases you.
assistant-charterYour calendar, drafts, and follow-ups are handled, and nothing sends without you.
A written charter separates what you owe others (the assistant) from what you are deciding (the chief of staff). Every outbound stops at a draft.
dumpYou say what happened once, in your own words, and every piece lands where it belongs.
A routing table names which file owns which kind of fact, so nothing is logged twice or filed nowhere. A fresh dump outranks any older record.
retireSessions end clean, and the next one starts already briefed.
A closing ritual moves only what earned keeping into permanent memory. Short sessions restarted clean compound; one long session drifts.
capability-scoutYou find out what the system can do that you are not using yet.
It reads your actual usage against the installed inventory and names the gap, so the machine you paid for does not sit idle.
your-voiceA note to a specific person sounds like you wrote it, because the register maps to the recipient.
Voice is mapped per relationship, not one house tone. The last ten percent of every draft is edited by you, and that stays the rule.
co-writingLong documents get written with you, never silently rewritten for you.
Your own sentences are never changed without a veto. Every proposed edit is listed beside the original, and the structure comes from your motion, not a template.
concrete-proseDense drafts become sentences a reader can act on without translating them first.
The test is who does what. It hunts abstractions sitting where a person or a named thing belongs, because that is why readers bounce, not length.
house-voiceEverything you publish reads like one firm wrote it.
Register and banned-word rules are enforced by a small program at save time, not by anyone remembering them.
newsletterFinished research becomes an email your reader opens and finishes.
One finding is re-cut for the reader receiving it, and every figure stays traceable to its source file, so nothing goes out you cannot defend live.
post-sessionA client working session becomes a finished, sendable package the same day.
Each deliverable copies the format of the last document that client accepted, so what ships matches what already worked.
site-styleEvery new page lands consistent, indexed, and quotable.
One navigation standard plus structured data on every public page, so answer engines can retrieve and cite it. A working lead source, proven once already.
gtmAn offer is pressure-tested by four seats before it goes on sale.
The seats are read-only and every price is a recommendation until the owner agrees. The pricing seat argues against the funnel seat on purpose.
proposal-strategyYour bid argues what moves the buyer's score, not what fills pages.
Strategy is set before prose. Effort concentrates on the factors the buyer weights, in the order the panel reads.
proposal-voiceYour proposals read like the ones buyers already chose.
The register is derived from 558 pages of public McKinsey and Gartner proposals. Median sentence 21 words, zero contractions in the whole corpus.
rfp-responseYour response lands in the buyer's own structure, where evaluators can score it.
Submission documents keep the buyer's section names in the buyer's order, because panels score with a checklist and findability beats cleverness.
grant-writingGrant applications speak to funders in a funder's terms.
A separate lane from contracting, because a funder reads for mission fit where a contracting officer reads for compliance.
scope-adversaryYou sign knowing what the scope will actually cost you.
It reads your agreement the way the client will read it in month three, and prices every unpriced ask before your signature makes it free.
key-accountYour most important relationship gets a staffed team of its own.
A context keeper stays separate from the writer, so advice comes from current facts on file, not from a memory of them.
qaNothing ships with a claim that fails a live challenge.
A fast mechanical check runs on every save and a slow judgment pass runs on request. Both, never just one.
bid-reviewYour draft is scored before the buyer ever scores it.
Defect passes run on every bid because they never stop finding. Scoring panels run only where the buyer published weights, because scoring saturates.
legal-qaYour agreement is attacked before the other side gets the chance.
One seat checks your standing protection list, one simulates opposing counsel, and one rewrites your asks as rules that benefit every party, so they survive review.
distillA pile of one-off observations becomes a standing rule.
The pattern is written into the exact place it would fire next, so a lesson costs its price once.
boardA decision gets argued before the money is spent.
A standing contrarian seat is built to disagree on purpose, and the disagreement lands on the page where you read it, not after the spend.
model-cost-optimizerRoutine work stops running on premium rates.
Each task routes to the cheapest model that passes the task's own check. Escalation requires a measured failure, never a hunch.
system-overviewAnyone can see your whole machine on one page.
The map regenerates from the files themselves, so it cannot drift from what is actually installed.
ui-ux-pro-maxAnything with an interface ships at a professional standard.
Design is decided against a written standard, so quality does not depend on taste on the day.
world-class-web-appWeb work ships production-grade, and done means verified.
Build standards carry their own verification steps, so a finished claim is a checked claim.
The box installs a custom Firm Memory System, a dedicated, automated second brain that makes your AI immediately intelligent, fully context-aware, and aligned with your operations.
Ready to plug this architecture into your current workflow?
Megan Starkey is CEO and Principal Consultant of RBD. and the author of The Intelligence Organization. She built this to run her own practice first.
In week one, the engineer seat wrote a confident diagnosis with five claims in it. The auditor seat checked each one against the actual files. All five were made up.
The inspector caught the mechanic inventing a repair on day one.
> systems-engineer: pipeline diagnosis complete > systems-auditor: verifying 5 claims against live state... ✗ claim 1: log path does not exist ✗ claim 2: referenced entry never written ✗ claim 3: tool never actually run ✗ claim 4: fabricated ✗ claim 5: fabricated > underlying state, checked directly: mostly healthy
Reconstructed to show the shape of the check the auditor ran, not a literal log excerpt.
Megan posted what her setup had replaced, and the builders in the room asked how. The answer is documented in full, in the open, before you pay for anything.
Every anchor is a price RBD. actually charges elsewhere. Not a manufactured bonus stack.
| Component | The benefit | Honest anchor |
|---|---|---|
| Chief of staff (intake and routing) |
New information files itself. | A $99/mo tracking tool still leaves you sorting. This sorts. |
| Advisory board (standing contrarian seat) |
A standing second opinion, before you commit. | The live version sells at $1,500/mo. This ships the pattern. |
| Go-to-market team (offer, pricing, research, design) |
Four seats pressure-test every price and pitch. | One hour of this sells at $2,500. This ships the seats. |
| Systems team (architect, auditor, contrarian) |
Nothing is done until something checks it. | The live version is the $750 Build Session. This ships three roles. |
| Working skills (28, proposal strategy to the daily dump) |
Repeated judgment calls run the same way every time. | Priced like RBD.'s own $129 templates, five of the 28 alone are $645. |
| Memory & routing architecture (knowledge graphs, starter doctrine) |
What you learned the hard way governs next time. | Taught as a course, $249. This ships the finished structure. |
| Teaching guides (from curriculum delivered to paying clients) |
The walkthroughs paying clients received. | Already delivered inside paying engagements. |
Build Session $750 + just five of the 28 skills at $129 each + the $249 architecture + one month of a $99 tool = $1,743. All of it, assembled: $297, once.
