Feature Guide: Executives

**What Starting Monday gives you - one page**

Core features

Company Intelligence Scanner

Monitors every company you track - every 48 hours - for signals that precede a senior search: executive departures, funding events, 8-K filings, leadership restructuring, and career page activity. When signals cluster into a pattern, the platform names the opportunity and alerts you before the role is formalized. This is the window that matters at the C-suite level.

Daily Morning Briefing

Each morning you receive a digest of: new signals on tracked companies, pending follow-up actions, and your pipeline status. Installs the daily operating discipline that keeps a search active even when you are fully employed. Delivered via email and in-app.

Active Pipeline Command Center

A single view of every company you are tracking: last contact, next action, signal freshness, and pipeline stage. Surfaces conversations that are going stale, follow-ups that are overdue, and timing windows that are narrowing. Acts as your CRM without requiring you to maintain it manually.

Prep Brief Generator

Before any coffee chat, intro call, or interview, generate a role-specific prep brief. The brief includes: company context, likely mandate framing, probable interview questions for your target seat, suggested talking points, and positioning guidance. Takes 5 minutes to generate; replaces 2-3 hours of manual research.

Persona Routes (role-specific guidance)

Choose the executive persona that matches your target seat: CIO/CTO, CISO, CDO, CPO, COO, VP Technology, or general C-suite. Each route surfaces role-specific search framing, interview arc patterns, and board-level positioning guidance calibrated to your target title.

Active vs. Intelligence Mode

• **Active search:** Full daily cadence, all signals, pipeline tracking, outreach prompts. For executives running an intentional campaign.
• **Intelligence mode:** Reduced cadence, ambient signal awareness, no outreach prompts. For executives who want market intelligence without an active campaign footprint.

Coach Visibility Controls

If you work with an executive coach, grant them read-only access to your pipeline and prep quality. You control exactly what they see. Your coach cannot see anything you have not explicitly shared, and nothing is visible to your current employer.

Outreach Tracking

Log every message you send: introduction request, referral follow-up, coffee chat. The platform tracks response rates, time-to-reply, and follow-through gaps. Surfaces the conversations most worth a second touch.

What-Changed Summary

Before any follow-up conversation, view a what-changed summary: what has happened with that company since your last interaction, new signals, team changes, and relevant news. Walk into every conversation more current than the person you are meeting.

Interview Arc Tracker

For active interview processes, track each round: prep brief completed, confidence score, key themes from prior rounds, questions to ask, and next steps. Keeps your interview campaign organized and your preparation quality consistent across rounds.
