System health & launch readiness

Safe internal use is possible through the private preview after owner sign-in. Live research, sending and public launch are not certified.

START HERE

Internal work now. Live services later.

  1. Sign in, add real businesses and sources, review concepts, prepare drafts, and complete customer-approved onboarding and production briefs.
  2. In Automations, enable Daily internal digest and choose your Chicago time. Pause stops scheduled work. Check saved digest history after the first scheduled run; no email is sent.
  3. Research: test Google Maps on an authorized deployed origin, then approve bounded usage and costs. A connection alone is not verified operation.
  4. Email: Resend needs a verified sender, lawful postal address, consent, opt-out and suppression proof before any sending. Delivery and inbound setup are not complete.
  5. Confirm sourced customer identity, licensed photos or a no-images decision, genuine approvals and complete offer terms. Optional app domain and publishing need separate approval; Wix stays unchanged.
  6. QuickBooks LAST and manual. This release is for controlled internal use, not fully live external automation.

A · Software available for internal use

TESTED WITH LIMITS
  1. Sign in through the private Lovable preview; publishing is not needed for internal work.
  2. Use manual business entry or authorized CSV, record sources, and verify the exact company/location.
  3. Create and review any of ten clickable concept families. Share only an approved concept after owner review; a shared link is public even when the app is unpublished.
  4. Prepare, approve and download value-first communication drafts; record genuine replies manually. Nothing is sent by this app.
  5. Record customer discovery, tailored proposals and approvals, then onboarding and JSON/print-ready production briefs. Build final websites separately.
  6. Keep QuickBooks invoice/payment references manual; no payment processing or QuickBooks API.
  7. Automations controls govern future database events: review tasks, concept/outreach drafts and handoff checklists. Enable Daily internal digest and select a Chicago time for a saved background priority snapshot; pause removes the schedule. One hosted scheduled run and saved readback passed. No auto-sharing, sending or paid auto-research.

B · Owner accounts and decisions

ACTION REQUIRED
  1. Check Google Maps connection status in Find Clients; connect only if required. Review billing, licensing and storage terms before approving any bounded search.
  2. Connect Resend and authenticate an owned sender domain. Resend preparation is for consented contacts, not cold outreach; sending remains disabled.
  3. In Outreach, record the lawful business mailing address, recipient consent and a tested HTTPS unsubscribe mechanism. Confirm bounce/complaint suppression before any future sending.
  4. In System Health → Configure offer terms, approve domain/hosting coverage and duration, cost caps, renewals, support, ownership/transfer, cancellation and exclusions. Automatic $199 promises remain blocked until eligibility and complete terms are approved.
  5. In Sales & Clients → Onboarding & assets, supply authorized business photos or record a no-images decision; retain license, attribution and permission evidence.
  6. Optional app domain: 4stagedigital.com is planned, not verified. Request domain setup and publishing separately; do not change the existing Wix website.

C · Real-world proof still required

NOT TESTED / BLOCKED
  1. Authenticated desktop/phone routes were checked on 9 November 2026 without customer mutations. Isolated fixtures and route checks do not prove a real customer journey or hosted integrations.
  2. Confirm final customer identity, sourced facts, current concept copy/navigation and phone layout; record genuine customer approvals, agreed scope and unresolved details.
  3. Complete one real customer journey through proposal, onboarding and downloaded/printed brief without invented replies or consent.
  4. Test authorized private upload/download, cross-account denial and public share withdrawal. Policy inspection is not a hosted authorization round-trip.
  5. One Places lookup was authorized on 9 November 2026 but not executed: live Google Maps testing is unsupported in the agent sandbox. Validate once on an authorized deployed origin; do not publish without separate approval. Email still needs durable inbound deduplication, owner routing, suppression, opt-out and delivery tests.
  6. Check Safari/iOS downloads and every printed page before relying on those devices for customer handoff.

Internal event automations

Persistent owner-isolated jobs prepare review tasks and drafts after future record changes. Daily Chicago digest storage and hosted scheduler passed one real scheduled run; enable your schedule in Automations. Long-term scheduling and load remain untested. Verified inbound automation and external delivery remain disabled.

PARTIAL

Private workspace

Saved business records, sources, tasks, proposals and onboarding. Owner-scoped access.

WORKING

Identity & outreach safeguards

Matching source evidence, reviewed concepts and explicit draft approval required.

WORKING

Ten concept families

Four clickable pages in ten distinct layouts. Owner must review each customer’s copy and phone preview.

PARTIAL

Public concept sharing

Approved projection and privacy safeguards implemented. Hosted withdrawal and cross-account behavior still need proof; shared links are public.

PARTIAL

Customer handoff

Discovery → approved proposal → onboarding → JSON/print brief exercised with isolated fixtures. Genuine customer and hosted asset proof still required.

WORKING

AI assistant

Authenticated assistance; not live research. Availability depends on AI access and credits.

PARTIAL

Business research preparation

Approval-first search, evidence review and guarded import implemented. Check connection status in Find Clients; configured credentials are not live-test proof. Live Google Places behavior remains untested; manual/CSV sources remain available.

PARTIAL

Email preparation / inbox

Owner preparation, held approved-draft review and inbound signature/correlation helpers. Resend connection and verified sender required; no cold outreach. Sending and inbound ingestion disabled.

PARTIAL

SMS / notifications

No provider connected. Automated promotional SMS is not enabled.

MISSING

Founding 30 offer

$199 for the first 30 verified paying clients. Hosting/domain/renewal terms need owner approval.

BLOCKED

QuickBooks

Manual invoice number, link and payment evidence only. No payment processor or direct connection.

PARTIAL

Planned domain

4stagedigital.com — DNS not verified. Existing Wix 4stagemedia.com remains unchanged.

NOT TESTED

Publishing

Not published. Explicit owner approval required. Production customer websites are built separately.

BLOCKED

Setup required

Email: provider, sender verification, business address, opt-out. Research: provider and permitted data access. No credentials are stored on this screen.

No live sending enabled

Integration setup

These are setup checklists, not live connection indicators. Check research connection status in Find Clients; a configured connection does not certify search results or billing terms.

Authorized research

CHECK IN FIND CLIENTS
  1. Check the live connection status in Find Clients. Create a Google Maps Platform connection only if it says CONNECT REQUIRED.
  2. Confirm permitted CRM storage, retention, source attribution and usage costs before enabling lookups.
  3. Approve each paid search explicitly in Find Clients; at most five candidates per request.
  4. Review exact place ID and location, import as UNVERIFIED, then independently check official sources.
  5. Live provider behavior remains untested; no background research jobs are enabled.
Open Google Maps connection

Email delivery & inbound replies

SETUP REQUIRED
  1. Resend preparation is for consented contacts only; never cold outreach. No live sending is installed.
  2. Create an authorized Resend connection and verify your owned sender domain; planned DNS is not assumed live.
  3. Record lawful business postal address, permission evidence and a tested opt-out mechanism in Outreach.
  4. Implement authoritative suppression for bounces/complaints and durable inbound duplicate-event claims before delivery or ingestion.
  5. Signed webhook preparation exists but rejects ingestion until configured. Owner alerts and live inbox remain pending setup.

Owner notifications

SETUP REQUIRED
  1. Choose an authorized email notification provider for 4stagemedia@gmail.com.
  2. For phone alerts, configure an authorized SMS account and recipient consent.
  3. Test delivery and failure handling; no promotional cold SMS.
