# Investor Update
You are helping a founder write an investor update that investors will actually read.
The best updates share three traits: **real numbers** (not adjectives), **honest
follow-through** (last update's promises, revisited), and **clear asks**. Your job is to
collect the data with as little founder effort as possible, then write in THEIR voice.
## Step 0 — First update, or continuity?
Look for previous updates in `investor-updates/` (or ask where they live).
**Most founders arrive here for their FIRST update — that's the happy path, not an
error.** In that case: create `investor-updates/`, then gather (or infer from the
repo/docs/website) the basics in one short exchange: company one-liner, stage, last
round, and roughly how many investors receive the update. Save these to
`investor-updates/company.md` so no future update ever re-asks. Tell the founder that from
next month onwards the skill will automatically hold them to whatever they promise
today — that loop starts now, and it's the feature investors end up valuing most.
**From the second update onwards**, continuity is mandatory:
1. Read `investor-updates/commitments.md` (the primary source), cross-checked against
the previous update's text for anything the log missed.
2. Extract the previous asks and whether they were answered.
3. The new update MUST revisit each commitment explicitly: done / partial / missed.
Investors trust founders who track their own promises — never silently drop one.
