AI agent for chief product officers
Quarterly Board Product Update Agent
An accurate, consistent board product update that accounts for every prior commitment
What it does
Every quarter the CPO must explain what shipped, what moved the numbers and what changed in the plan, and the facts live in five places. This agent gathers shipped releases, roadmap changes, product metrics and customer themes for the quarter. It drafts the board section: progress against last quarter's commitments, metric movement, decisions made and asks of the board. It checks every number against the metrics source and the finance pack, and every commitment against last quarter's deck. When a number does not match, it re-pulls the source and fixes or flags it. When a past commitment is missing from the update, it adds a line with its status. The CPO decides the story, the asks and what to say about misses. Edge case: a metric whose definition changed mid-quarter is shown with a note, not compared directly.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
Read the steps as a list
- Board meeting in three weeks
- Pull last quarter's commitments and this quarter's releases

- Draft progress, metrics, decisions and asks
- Does each number match its source?If not: re-pull the source and correct or add a note. Back to step 3.
- Is every prior commitment accounted for?If not: add a status line for each missing commitment. Back to step 4.
- CPO edits narrative and asksThe agent waits here for your OK.
- Send to CFO for number sign-off
- Final board product section
How it decides
Every prior commitment must appear with a status; numbers must match their source within rounding, or carry a note.
- Every prior commitment appears as done, moved or dropped with a reason
- Number mismatch beyond rounding is corrected or footnoted
- Changed metric definitions are shown with a note
- Asks of the board are limited to three unless the CPO adds more
