For the Chief of Staff who currently spends 45 minutes every morning sifting Slack, Linear, GitHub, news, and email to compile what the principal needs to know. Bureau replaces that. By 6 AM, every day.
Mark, Chief of Staff to a public-company CEO, used to spend 7-to-7:45 AM every weekday building a brief: Slack threads, Linear status changes, GitHub PRs in priority repos, Gmail from key senders, the deal pipeline, the calendar for today and tomorrow. Three weeks after switching to Bureau he stopped doing that.
Now Bureau pulls all six sources at 5:30, hands them to a briefer LLM, then to a scriptwriter, then to two co-host journalists' voices. By 6:08 AM the episode is in two tokenized podcast feeds — one for the CEO, one for the COO. Mark gets back 3.75 hours a week.

When sources land, the briefer LLM produces a 1-2 paragraph summary in the segment's beat shape. The brief gets stored. The raw payload (your colleague's email body, the Slack thread, the PR diff) is dropped after the brief is composed — unless your tenant explicitly opts into payload retention per source.
