## Why this matters

The hardest moment in any strategy workshop is the blank page — the silence after the goals are
set, when someone has to suggest the first initiative. Ciclo fills that silence with a strategy
team's worth of thinking, ready before the meeting starts. Crucially, the suggestions don't just
autocomplete — they come with a **rationale** grounded in frameworks like Scaling Up and *Good
Strategy/Bad Strategy*, specific to *this* strategy.

## Generate suggestions across the strategy

<Steps>
  <Step title="Start with Page Insights">
    On the **Strategy** page, open the [AI Insights](/features/ai-insights) panel for a live
    diagnosis — what's strong, what's at risk — followed by specific recommendations based on the
    actual content of this strategy, not generic advice.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Suggest initiatives on the Roadmap">
    On the [Roadmap](/features/roadmap), create a new initiative and open the **Suggest
    Initiative** tab. Each suggestion carries not just a title but a rationale — which
    strategic gap it closes and why it matters now. **Add** the right one with a single
    click, ask for **more suggestions**, or **dismiss** those that don't fit.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Suggest KPIs on the Performance page">
    On the [Performance page](/features/performance-kpis), add a new KPI and open the
    **Suggest KPI** tab. Each suggestion specifies a metric name, a target value, a unit, and
    a one-line rationale for why the metric matters here. This cuts the "what should we
    measure?" conversation from hours to minutes.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Suggest actions to unblock execution">
    On the [Actions](/features/actions) board, add a new action and open the **Suggest
    Action** tab. The AI suggests concrete next steps — each starting with a verb (Schedule,
    Create, Draft) and explaining the blocker it removes. One click to add, then assign an
    owner.

  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  In a workshop, use suggestions to **generate options quickly and let the client choose**. You
  bring the facilitation and judgement; the AI removes the blank-page friction.
</Tip>

## The value you're delivering

* **The output of a multi-week engagement, in an afternoon** — a roadmap of initiatives, a KPI
  dashboard with targets, and a set of owned actions.
* **Suggestions that think, not just autocomplete** — every one comes with a strategic rationale
  the client can weigh.
* **Billable work moves up the value chain** — from drafting to advising. The judgement clients
  pay for is exactly what AI can't do.
