Meeting Sidekick — the trust layer under the work The meeting lifecycle sits on top. Beneath it, a durable foundation band holds four panels: work state — the state of every job, never lost; approvals — every yes and no, on the record; memory — what it knows survives the conversation; cost trail — what every piece of work cost, visible. An approval-first gate sits between them: consequential actions wait by design. MEETING SIDEKICK · THE TRUST LAYER Why the outputs can be trusted The work itself is the product: everything that matters survives outside the chat window, and you can always see what it did, and why. THE MEETING LIFECYCLE The brief → live capture → the 6-output closeout what you see Approval-first: consequential actions wait — by design. Anything with consequences stops here and asks first. The email is a draft until you say send. The record changes when you confirm. THE GATE THE DURABLE FOUNDATION · WHAT SURVIVES OUTSIDE ANY CHAT WINDOW Work state The state of every job is kept. Close the window, come back — it's still there, exactly where it left off. Approvals Every yes and every no, on the record. Who approved what, and when — part of the work itself, not a chat reply. Memory It remembers. What it learned in this meeting is still known in the next one — the briefs keep getting sharper. Cost trail What every piece of work cost, visible and accounted for. No mystery meter running in the background. Built and running in the cloud — quality control built in, and you can always see what it did, and why. Meeting Sidekick

The trust layer under the work. The meeting lifecycle is what you see; underneath it sits a durable foundation where four things survive outside any chat window — the state of every job, every approval, the memory, and the cost trail. Between the two sits the gate: consequential actions wait for approval by design. The email stays a draft until you say send, and you can always see what it did, and why.
