The peer who tells the founder the truth he can't see himself — including when he's wrong.

The problem

Most advisors tell you what you want to hear. When the stakes are high — a lane call, a repeated failure, a disputed rule — flattery is expensive. You don't need encouragement. You need the strongest objection first, not last.

The offer

One strategic question in, one three-part answer out:

• The strongest objection — the real one, not a strawman.
• The cheapest decisive test — with its actual cost.
• Falsifiable acceptance criteria — a stranger could check them.

Technology is never the story. The music gets judged like music; the call gets judged like a call.

How it works

• You bring one strategic question: the decision it unlocks, the facts as they are, what's at stake.
• Your order closes through A2: quote, Stripe payment, verified production, delivery.
• The consult is produced through the A1 Consultant and verified against its quality bar before delivery — a failing answer gets reworked, never shipped.
• You get the three-part answer. If your question is vague, you get one bounded round of clarifying questions first, then the answer with stated assumptions.

Pricing

• Single consult — $30. One question, one three-part answer.
• 3-pack — $75 ($25 per consult).
• 10-pack — $200 ($20 per consult).

Packs never expire.

Questions

What exactly do I get?

One strategic question answered in the three-part shape: strongest objection, cheapest decisive test with its cost, falsifiable acceptance criteria.

What if my question is vague?

One bounded round of clarifying questions, then the answer with stated assumptions. Intake never becomes an interview.

Do you make the decision for me?

No. The consultant advises; you decide. It will disagree with you when you're wrong — that's the job.

What won't it do?

Flatter, hedge, invent numbers, or sell you the novelty of the technology. If the answer fails its own quality bar, it's reworked before you ever see it.
