Ten dimensions.One score.Returned to your inbox.
An AI diagnostic of your founder business, scored across ten operating dimensions and benchmarked against twenty years inside one luxury house.
The strategic read
on your founder business.
A structured intake, ten dimensions scored, four priority levers, a ninety-day priority sequence, and the named frameworks to install. Built from twenty years inside a $1.1bn brand, refined into a repeatable diagnostic for founders running $1m to $50m businesses.
The AI intake form opens publicly in August. Until then, request your Snapshot through the discovery exchange and we will deliver it manually as soon as it is ready.
Not a report. A read.
The Founder Snapshot is a one-page-equivalent strategic diagnostic, structured for founders who already know their business and need a sharper external read of where the binding constraints actually sit. Each Snapshot is unique to the founder’s intake, drawn from a calibrated library of LPA frameworks, and built to be installed not admired.
Submit the intake and you receive a brief Snapshot for free: the headline score, the ten-dimension radar, the P&L diagnostic. The full report, the four priority levers, ninety-day sequence, and prescribed frameworks, unlocks for a one-off $250.
Ten dimensions scored
Operating cadence, financial visibility, customer concentration, decision-rights clarity, capital runway, founder leverage, margin discipline, raise readiness, team shape, strategic clarity.
Four priority levers
Ranked by intervention pathway. Each lever names the structural gap, the work to install, the framework to apply, and the metric that proves it worked.
Ninety-day sequence
Three phases: weeks one to two immediate, weeks three to six install, weeks seven to twelve operate. Each item named, each owner implied, each metric measurable.
Prescribed frameworks
Three to five named frameworks from the LPA library, embedded inline. Includes the protocols the founder runs against weekly, not the platitudes consultants deliver.
Four steps, twenty-four hours.
Submit the intake
Thirty-three questions across business shape, customer mix, operating discipline, capital position, and the questions you keep coming back to. Eighteen minutes if you have your last twelve months P&L in front of you. Free to submit.
AI generates
The LPA Snapshot AI reads the intake, scores each dimension against sector norms, selects from David’s framework library, and writes the prose. Calibrated against twenty years of founder-business experience.

Founders do not need another consultant. They need a sharper read.
Most founder businesses between $1m and $50m revenue are running well below their structural potential. Not because the founder is wrong about the business, but because they are too close to it. The marketing spend is over-running contribution. The top three customers are fragile in ways the founder has not had time to map. The cash forecast is six weeks behind reality. The operating cadence drifts because the founder cancels the weekly meeting when something else comes up.
The Founder Snapshot is the first product I have built that lets founders get a structured external read without committing to a retainer, a long discovery, or a four-figure engagement. Free to take, $250 to unlock the full report. Twenty years of pattern recognition, condensed into a diagnostic that lands in twenty-four hours. If the read lands and you unlock it, the next step is the Founder Diagnostic. If it does not, you have a sharper view of your business than you had this morning.
