The Founder's Claude Automation Guide

The free 90-day roadmap is the outline. This is the full depth: setup walkthroughs, the complete workflow library, copy-paste templates, appendices. Everything it takes to build your founding team of AI cofounders and run it as CEO.

What's different from the free roadmap

Roadmap (free)

The shape of a 90-day plan, one example of each play, enough to start this week.

Guide ($49)

Setup walkthroughs end to end, the complete workflow library shelved by role (Growth, Ops, Brand, and cross-role), copy-paste templates for the company brief and every role file, a troubleshooting appendix, and the 90-day plan expanded past what fits on one web page.

What's in it

Part I: Why a Team, Not a Toolkit

Founder fallout kills startups, and a solo founder can't hedge it by adding human cofounders. So you build the hedge with AI: three AI cofounders (Growth, Ops, Brand) plus you as CEO. What you set up in Claude to run them, and why it works for any business, not just software.

Part II: How a Role Works

The anatomy of one AI cofounder, learned once: its own memory file (its mandate) and its own playbooks (its recurring jobs). What stays shared company context (PRODUCT, USERS, GOALS) and what each role owns (VOICE, ICP, OFFERS, CLIENTS, and the rest), plus which surface each role lives on.

Part III: Hiring the Team (the 90 days)

The full 90-day plan. Phase 1 hires the team one cofounder a week. Phase 2 puts each cofounder to work against your real jobs and introduces the chief of staff. Phase 3 makes it durable: the coordinating session, the approval gate, and the recurring cadence.

Part IV: The Playbook Library, by Role

Every workflow, shelved by who runs it: Growth's (outreach, proposals, content), Ops's (the weekly review, the report, shipping with Code, hiring), Brand's (voice and consistency), and the cross-role plays the chief of staff routes.

Part V: You're the CEO

The human role. The approval gate as the job, clearing approvals from your phone with Remote Control while the team keeps running on your machine, and keeping each role's brief sharp as the business changes underneath it.

Appendices

Copy-paste templates for the company brief, all three role files and their sub-files, the chief-of-staff brief, and a starter approval-gate policy, plus a troubleshooting section built from real failure modes, by role.

Is this for you

This is for you if

  • You're past the idea stage and want the complete setup, not the sample the free roadmap gives you.
  • You'd rather read a finished playbook in an afternoon than piece one together from scattered posts.
  • You want the setup walkthroughs in full, not the shape of them.

Skip it for now if

  • You haven't read the free roadmap yet. Start there. If it doesn't click, the guide won't either.
  • You're pre-idea. Come back once you have something to point Claude at.
  • You want a general AI-tools comparison. This is Claude only, on purpose.

Jamey Warren. He ships Warren Labs' products (an audio plugin validated against Apple's test suite, a support tool) and this site by directing Claude instead of hand-writing every line. The guide is written by running the 90-day sequence on his own businesses, not compiled from theory, and the setup is logged as it happens in the Build Log.
