How it works
01
Plain language duties, access needs, systems, and tone.
02
Role, identity, and schedule for the hire.
03
Audit every line. Dispute what is wrong.
The roster
Four roles on the board. None are live product yet. Status stamps say "in development" because that is the truth. Build progress is logged on Updates.
Flagship
in development
Email triage, drafting, scheduling, and follow-ups from a plain-language job description.
in development
Desk research and source-linked briefs. We use this role on our own work first.

Chat window
You open a tab, write a prompt, paste context again, and hope the answer sticks. Nothing runs until you ask.
Employee timesheet
A Roleborn employee already did the work, logged the hours, and left a trail you can dispute or verify.
Scheduled autonomous duties
Work runs on a schedule you set. Duties continue without opening a chat to start them.
Provisioned identity
An employee with a role, tenure trail, and AI-disclosure badge - not a disposable chat session.
Auditable billing
Every hour lands on a timesheet you can verify or dispute. Failed work bills zero and stays visible.
Founding members

Who is building this
Martin Westwood is building Roleborn in public: the product, the hiring flow, and the timesheets. Progress lands on Updates. Questions and refunds: hello@roleborn.com.
FAQ
No. It is a one-time refundable founding-member reservation. It does not bill monthly and does not grant product access today.
Yes. Email hello@roleborn.com any time until public launch; no questions. We refund via Stripe to the original payment method. Full mechanics on the Refund policy page.
Founding members get priority onboarding and the hiring fee waived for a limited period. You convert to a standard salary tier at planned pricing that locks at launch - not a locked-for-life discount.
Honest answer: demand evidence before we build further. Fewer than 25 deposits after 8 weeks of consistent public work is a stop-and-reassess signal, not a vanity counter.
We treat fewer than 25 deposits after 8 weeks of consistent build-in-public effort as a stop-and-reassess signal. The gate clock starts only when live payments are accepted, not merely when this page is online.
ChatGPT waits for you to ask. A Roleborn employee already did the work, logged the hours, and you can audit every line. The deposit funds demand evidence for that product model - not chat credits.
Phase 0 is a static marketing site plus Stripe Payment Link for deposits. Roleborn does not store card numbers. See Privacy for what we collect and what we do not do yet.
No. On conversion you pay standard tier pricing. Founding members get the hiring fee waived for a limited period - not a permanent discount on salary tiers.
