Orchestrator

Orchestrator is a tool built for that problem. Every project moves through a fixed lifecycle (idea → consolidate → mock → pre-market → dev → marketing → live) and the app tracks where each one sits. A daily ranked inbox pulls the single most important next-action across all active projects to the top. An AI reviews each playbook item and adds a nudge explaining exactly why that item is blocking and what to do. Stage promotions require an AI gate review before a project can move forward; manual decisions (park, kill, pivot) are recorded in an audit trail so nothing disappears silently.

The naive approach (show everything, let the user decide) is the failure mode this tool is trying to fix. The ranking formula multiplies how long a project has been untouched by a per-stage weight (late stages score higher, since a near-live project going cold costs more). The result surfaces the item where inaction is doing the most damage. AI nudges are fetched lazily on first render and cached by input hash against a hard daily spend ceiling of $0.17. The same question never costs twice, and AI features stop when the cap is hit rather than running up an unexpected bill.
