Deal Desk
Dumb on Purpose™ · 360AOR LLC
The tool that runs the Dumb on Purpose method on every offer, idea, and contract — so nothing gets built before it's been captured, diagnosed, scored, and priced.
Keep front of mind
Deal Desk
Capture the problem, subtract unnecessary technology, score the opportunity, and choose the smartest economic position.
Current Opportunity
DOP Rule
Capture → Diagnose → Score → Classify → Structure → Decide.

Fill from Sheet
Paste the sheet the ChatGPT project produced. The tool reads every labeled line, shows what it found next to what the job holds now, and applies only what you tick. Facts are pre-ticked. Anything the sheet marked (suggested) — scores, deal type, level, estimate — waits for you.
Nothing read yet.
Backups
The tool keeps its own restore points, writes a copy to a folder you choose every time you save, and lets you look inside any backup before you use it.
Backup folder
Pick a folder once (a OneDrive folder keeps it off this machine too). After that a dated JSON lands there automatically on every save. Chrome or Edge.
Import with preview
Open a backup file and see what's inside before anything changes.
Restore points
Kept in this browser: the last 30 changes, plus one per day for 90 days.
Opportunity Intake
Start with what happens today—not with the software somebody thinks they want.
Identity
Problem
Problem Mapper
"Show me what happens today." Trigger → Inputs → Decisions → Actions → Output → Failure.
Cost of Problem
Technology Subtraction
Every dependency must justify its existence. "Could" is not the same as "required." For each one: what happens if we remove it?
Minimum Architecture
Core vs. Enhancement
Opportunity Score
Score the business opportunity—not how exciting the idea feels. No classification is issued until all eight factors are rated.
Classification
Floors
Three factors cannot be outvoted by the total.
| Problem Severity ≤ 1 | caps at DECLINE |
| Ability to Pay ≤ 2 | caps at DIAGNOSE |
| Partner Quality ≤ 2 | caps at BUILD |
Override Flags
Hard stops. These apply even before scoring is complete.
Deal Architecture
Get paid for value created now. Preserve participation when value scales later.
Position
Negotiation Position
IP Position
Meeting Notes
Keep the chronological record separate from the permanent opportunity facts. Facts are promoted deliberately, once.
Add Meeting
Meeting Journal
DOP Advisor
AI advises. It never silently changes the score, classification, deal, or permanent record.
Transmission Boundary
Only checked information is assembled into the AI context packet. Notes, deal position, contacts, and financials are opt-in every time.
Diagnose Report
Client-facing Operational Architecture Report — the DOP Diagnose™ deliverable. Built from what you already recorded. Score, classification, negotiation, IP, notes, and AI are excluded.
Decision Brief
One-page operating decision, for you. Print or save as PDF using the browser.
Pipeline
Ideas cannot promote themselves. Evidence can.
Settings & Ownership
The app works without any network dependency. Connected AI is an optional enhancement.
AI Connection
POST JSON:
{"question":"...","context":"...","model":"..."}Return JSON:
{"answer":"..."}30-second timeout. Provider-agnostic — the API credential lives on the relay, never in this file.
Sync — your own server
Keeps every machine on the same copy through dealdesk.360aor.com/api/sync. Paste the token the droplet printed. Newer record wins if two machines disagree; a restore point is taken first.
Local Data
Everything below happens deliberately. There is no silent sync. Browser storage is per site — a copy opened from a different address has its own data. The JSON backup is the bridge.
Login
Your username and a hashed password are stored in this browser only. Auto-locks after 30 minutes idle and whenever the tab is closed.
