Extract → Memory → Recall → Act

### 01 ⬩ Receive: Start with one company update.

Forward an update and its attachments. Keep the original message alongside everything extracted from it.

### 02 ⬩ Extract: Open the email. Find the useful pieces.

Revenue, people, company asks and qualitative context become source-linked information.

### 03 ⬩ Memory: September becomes part of the history.

Write facts to their company and period. Preserve July and August. Keep the source available.

### 04 ⬩ Recall: What changed, and where can we help?

Recall the latest numbers alongside earlier updates, people and open asks.

### 05 ⬩ Act: Put the same memory to work.

Prepare a board brief, draft company assistance or review performance. These are illustrative drafts; nothing is sent.

Illustrative company and data. This walkthrough does not receive real email or run an agent.
