It reads priority pitches (see those in more detail here) and decides whether they’re ready to move forward. It looks for alignment to the company’s goals. It checks for missing information. It gives specific feedback. It doesn’t let anything pass unless it’s complete.
This wasn’t a test. It was built to be part of the execution engine inside UnbreakableOS. The system is designed to help any business stay focused on what matters most. The Gatekeeper helps enforce that.
Sometimes those goals are written down. Sometimes they’re understood, but not visible. Over time, small ideas and distractions can drift a company away from those goals. The Gatekeeper holds the line.
It asks for specifics. It requires numbers. It pushes for clarity. It keeps the work on track.
The tool helps create what I call Asymmetric Endurance™. The more clearly aligned a business becomes, the less energy it needs to stay in motion. Momentum builds. Less correction is needed. Discipline begins to scale.
The Gatekeeper works inside the system I’m releasing soon (sign up here). But you can start using the idea now. You can build your own agent.
Most of it sounds complex. But you don’t need a lab or a developer to get started. You just need rules, clarity, and a problem worth solving.
Here’s how small business owners can build their own version of the Gatekeeper - and use it to stay focused in the middle of daily chaos.
Think of it like a smart assistant that doesn’t do the work for you - it just makes sure you’re doing the right work.
You can build it using ChatGPTPlayground, a simple prompt, and a clear purpose.
Here are three examples any business can try:
Decides whether a new product, idea, or partnership deserves your attention.
What it looks for:
> Does it serve your existing customers?
> Will it increase revenue or margin?
> Can it be tested in 30 days for less than $X?
> Is it Signal, or is it Noise?
Why it helps:
It prevents shiny-object drift. It asks the hard questions you forget when you get excited.
Stops you from hiring unless a role is truly necessary.
What it checks:
> Does this free up leadership time or drive revenue?
> Is there a 90-day ramp plan?
> Can an existing tool or team solve this?
Why it helps:
Hiring is expensive. This makes sure you're not solving a strategy problem with a headcount fix.
Keeps yourself or your team from wasting a week on low-impact tasks.
What it does:
> Aligns every task to one of your three main goals.
> Removes vague or deadline-less items.
> Flags repeated busywork.
You don’t need to wait for UnbreakableOS to start using this way of thinking. You can build a prompt today that enforces your standards, your goals, and your direction. This is AI keeping you from losing your way.
The Gatekeeper is just one of many tools I’m releasing soon. If you want early access to the system or want help building your own agent, you can signup at unbreakable-os.com.
Until then, start simple...
