Your Roundtable 8 / 8 seated
Should I raise a seed round now or wait six months for better traction?
Seat 01 — The Operator
channeling Andrew Carnegie
Traction is a story you tell after you have capital, not a precondition for getting it. Raise while the narrative is fresh.
Seat 04 — The Skeptic
channeling Marcus Aurelius
Examine why you want the six months. Is it prudence, or fear wearing prudence's coat?

In session

One question. Every seat weighs in.

Your board doesn't converge on a single bland answer — each seat brings its own lens, and the disagreement is the point.

Question to the table
"A key employee just gave notice. Do I counter-offer, or let them go and backfill?"
HF
Seat 02 — The Loyalist channeling Henry Ford Operations

The moment someone announces they're leaving, the counter-offer is a discount, not a fix. Whatever drove them out is still there next quarter. Backfill, and ask louder what the exit is telling you about the seat itself.

CC
Seat 07 — The Diplomat channeling Catherine the Great People & influence

A court that never negotiates loses its best courtiers to rivals who will. Make the counter — but tie it to a changed role, not just changed pay, or you'll be back here in a year.

How it works

Set the table once. Convene it anytime.

Three steps, and your board is standing whenever you need it.

01

Seat your eight

Search thousands of figures by name, era, or domain and assign each to one of your eight seats — swap anyone, anytime.

02

Bring your question

Ask in plain language, from a hiring decision to a pricing strategy. Pull in the whole table or a single seat.

03

Weigh the counsel

Each seat answers from its own reasoning, on the record. You decide — the board only advises.
