LedgerBridge Document Set and Planned Docs
active
Edit Selected
LedgerBridge documentation structure captured on 2026-03-20.
Project path:
- `/home/svc-admin/ai-projects/projects/ledgerbridge`
Current documents in the LedgerBridge project directory:
- `SCRIPT_BEHAVIOR.md`
- technical explanation of what `process_reports.py` does
- inputs, outputs, logs, normalization behavior, failure handling, cron schedule
- `BUSINESS_EXPLANATION.md`
- business-language explanation of the project
- what problem it solves, why it matters, who would pay for it
- `FIRST_OFFER.md`
- smallest sellable version of the offer
- 2 files in, 1 report out, narrow service framing, early pricing
- `FIRST_CUSTOMER_PROFILE.md`
- defines the first buyer more narrowly than just “small business”
- focuses on buyer types like owner-operator, office manager, operations lead, or bookkeeper
- especially relevant fit: small e-commerce operator or admin-heavy small business manually reconciling recurring exports
- `OUTREACH_MESSAGE.md`
- includes short outreach copy that can be used in email, DM, Facebook, LinkedIn, or a local business contact
- purpose is to reduce hesitation and get real workflow examples from potential buyers
Requested/important documentation set for tightening LedgerBridge toward production:
- `POSITIONING.md`
- should contain one sentence for what LedgerBridge is
- one sentence for who it is for
- one sentence for the outcome
- one sentence for what it is not
- purpose: prevent the project from drifting into vague generic automation positioning
- `FIRST_CUSTOMER_PROFILE.md`
- define the exact first buyer, not just “small business”
- examples discussed:
- small e-commerce operator
- office manager at a 5-20 person company
- bookkeeper reconciling sales/refunds manually
- `OUTREACH_MESSAGE.md`
- should contain a short message that could actually be sent
- channels can include email, DM, Facebook, LinkedIn, or local business contact
- purpose: remove hesitation when it is time to start outreach
- `CUSTOMER_DISCOVERY_QUESTIONS.md`
- should capture questions like:
- what files do you export now?
- how often?
- who cleans them?
- how long does it take?
- what mistakes happen?
- what would success look like?
- `DELIVERY_MODEL.md`
- should define:
- how files get in
- how reports get out
- where logs live
- who gets notified on failure
- purpose: service delivery is what the customer experiences
- `ROADMAP.md`
- should stay grounded, not startup fantasy
- staged reality discussed:
- phase 1: one customer, two files, one report
- phase 2: config-driven mappings
- phase 3: customer-specific templates
- phase 4: dashboard or portal if justified
Operational note:
- as of capture time, `FIRST_CUSTOMER_PROFILE.md` and `OUTREACH_MESSAGE.md` already exist in the project directory
- the remaining high-value docs still to create are:
- `POSITIONING.md`
- `CUSTOMER_DISCOVERY_QUESTIONS.md`
- `DELIVERY_MODEL.md`
- `ROADMAP.md`
Intent of this document set:
- tighten LedgerBridge into a narrow, saleable, production-oriented service
- reduce ambiguity around offer, buyer, outreach, delivery, and evolution path
- keep the project grounded in one real workflow before expanding scope
