AI Documentation Sprint
5-day sprint · bus-factor first
We turn a senior person's undocumented knowledge into owner-independent runbooks, with an honest coverage map rating every system green, amber, or red, handoff-tested by someone else.
- Owner-independent runbooks: prerequisites, steps, failure modes
- Forward specs for what's being built next
- Expert-verified: gaps flagged, never fabricated
- A bus-factor coverage map of what's captured vs. at-risk
From $3,5005 business days

- Honest, pre-agreed red/amber/green thresholds with trend
- Documented so your team could run it, plus a 30-day check-in

How these are built
Every engagement runs on a documented method: the same guardrails that ship inside the Architect's toolkit, applied by hand to your real material. Samples show the format of the deliverable and use illustrative, non-client data. As a new practice, pricing is set per engagement before any work starts; you approve scope and cost first.
A glimpse of the method: the Decision Ledger

Illustrative: the format every brief ships with, not a client engagement.
