Write the all-hands update
A draft of the company update from what happened this month.
Founders and leadership · On a schedule · Updated
How do you write the all-hands update?
To write the all-hands update, set a Loop a few days before the meeting. Maito asks team leads in Slack for their wins, pulls metrics from your database, and drafts a slide deck. It lists who didn't reply and flags where a team's number differs from the data.
How it's done today
The all-hands deck is put together the night before.
What Maito does
- Collect wins, numbers and news from teams
- Draft slides and talking points
Example
Loop run: Nov 9 · 3 days before all-hands
All-hands draft is ready. Attached: all-hands-nov-12.pptx, 8 slides. • Slides 1 to 2: October metrics from BigQuery. ARR $1.02M, 64 sign-ups a day on average. • Slides 3 to 7: wins from 5 team leads • Slide 8: what's next, including the Nov 18 launch. New hires: Mira (design) and Jun (engineering). Sam didn't reply to my 2 messages, so support has only the numbers. Catch: Priya says support response time is 41 minutes. BigQuery says the median is 58. I used 58 and left Priya's figure in the speaker notes. Dana's win says 3 enterprise deals, but 2 closed.
@Maito use 58 and ask Sam for a one-line win by noon.
Asked Sam in Slack. I'll add whatever he sends to slide 6 at noon and tell you here.
Maito (9:00 AM):

What it won't do
It can only include wins people tell it and metrics it can read. Announcements like hires or plans need your confirmation before they go in.
Questions
It messages team leads in Slack or email, waits for replies, and uses what they say.
It uses only the data for that team and tells you who didn't reply.
No. It attaches a draft for you to edit and share.
