Show HN: CEO, Decision Making as a Service

I wish there was some samples of decisions you've made, on behalf of your customers, and their outcome - on the site!

Aside from being a new venture, we don't think that's relevant, oddly enough. We're here to make the decision for you, and hopefully leave a satisfied customer. Other decisions we've made are not relevant to yours.

That's not how it works. If you want me to trust you with decision making, I need to know who you are. If you are selling me a CRM software, may be I don't need to know who you are. Your business model will depend heavily on reputation and results for previous clients.

$100 is too cheap. The whole point of big 4 consulting is to show up in suits, analyze the context and recommend a decision which was already pre-determined by the CEO. Except that now the decision carries more weight because it was made by a team of highly educated independent external consultants which charged $X,000,000.

Congrats on automating McKinsey, you need to emphasize the CYA benefits more on your landing page.

Executive decisions without boardroom shenanigans I like it!

An "about" page would help

We're intentionally not trying to sell you on our credentials. We stand behind our satisfaction guarantee, and want to provide an objective as possible decision for you. Our only goal is to make the best decision! We've got no other skin in the game.

But I can't really trust you I you don't even try to convince me you are not in fact one high-schooler from - say - Cagliari, Italy.

How is this not flagged??? How can you decide something you don’t have context of?

I think that's kind of the point: analyze the context, make an impartial decision.

Correct, we think by not bringing any external context to the decision making process, we can provide our customers with a positive outcome more often than not. That's it, we're here to decide thorny issues.

Except you have very little context, and you get all of it from a person who's desperately incapable of deciding.

this seems like a joke ...

It's funny, but it's not a joke.

We earnestly believe that most decisions are bullshit, and come laden with politics and irrelevant context. We're simply here to make the call for you. We don't want anything besides you to be happy with the decision we provide.
