The Decision Memo Builder
Saves to this browser automatically

Write the memo. The meeting writes itself.

Fill the fields on the left. Watch the memo build on the right. Send it the day before, and your call opens on the real questions instead of the recap.

📄 No memo, no decision. The page does the thinking. The meeting does the deciding.

The memo discipline comes from Sharran Srivatsaa, President of Acquisition.com, whose rule is simple: no memo, no meeting. We turned that idea into something you can fill in and watch build.

1

The header and the ask

The Re line carries an instruction, not just a topic. End it with the request.

2

The framing line

One line that sets the altitude. The rule you follow, or what the last memo decided.

3

The point in one line

If they read nothing else, this is the sentence. The whole memo in one breath.

4

Context

The full picture, cold. Write as if they know nothing, so the call assumes they know everything. One point per box.

5

Locked

Already decided. Not up for debate. This protects settled ground from being reopened.

6

Open, for the meeting

The only reason the call exists. Keep it to five. More than five is two conversations.

0 open questions

7

The closing line

What becomes true once these are answered. Tells them what their reply unlocks.
