IFOS is the Indie Founder Operating System — a lightweight system for solo and indie founders that runs inside Claude and Notion, or entirely inside Claude (IFOS Lite). No custom software required.

You built something.
Now build a system
that actually
fits your life.

IFOS is a solo founder operating system. No board. No C-suite. No one else's version of success. Just you, your businesses, and a system that keeps you moving.

This is for you if

→ You're building one or more businesses without a team
→ You've tried productivity systems that assumed you had staff
→ You know what you want to build but keep losing momentum
→ You're accountable to no one — and that's the problem
→ You're running multiple income streams and feel scattered
→ You want a system designed around your life, not someone else's ambition

What is IFOS

IFOS is built on one belief: if you inherit someone else's version of success, you will always feel like a failure — because you're playing someone else's game.

So IFOS starts differently. Before any goals or targets, you define what a good life looks like for you. Then you build a system around that.

It runs inside two tools you probably already use: Claude and either Notion or Google Docs. No new software. No subscriptions beyond what you have. One conversation to set it all up. Thirty minutes a week to keep it running.

📋 Life Brief — your version of success
🚀 The Brief — per business
🎯 Bets — 3 quarterly time commitments
📊 Pulse — 5–7 weekly indicators
🔁 Founder Weekly — 30 min solo check-in
🪨 Friction Log — capture drag, don't solve it

How it works

01

Pay once, connect your tools

One payment. No subscription. After checkout, connect Claude to Notion and Google Calendar in two minutes. Claude handles everything else automatically.

02

Run your onboarding session

Paste the IFOS skill into Claude. It interviews you, builds your operating system in real time, books your calendar, and sends your accountability email. All in one 90-minute conversation.

03

30 minutes a week

Your Founder Weekly. Five questions. Three commitments. Claude already knows your Bets and last week's commitments. You just talk.

Choose your path

IFOS works where you already work.

After payment, you'll get the onboarding skill immediately. Connect Claude to your tools and run it. Everything gets built for you automatically.

🗒️

IFOS

Claude + Notion

Claude builds your full operating system inside Notion. Life Brief, Bets, Pulse, Founder Weekly — all created and populated automatically. The thinking layer and the reference layer, working together.

🤖

IFOS Lite

Claude only

Everything runs inside a Claude Project. No Notion required. Your Life Brief, Brief, and Bets live as project knowledge. Your Founder Weekly is a conversation. Fastest setup — three steps.

Not sure? Start with IFOS Lite. You can always add Notion later.

Questions

Do I need to pay for anything else? +
You need Claude Pro ($20/month) and either Notion's free plan (for IFOS) or nothing extra (for IFOS Lite). IFOS itself is a one-time payment — no subscription, no recurring fees.
What if I have more than one business? +
IFOS is designed for that. Each business gets its own page inside your workspace. A quarterly Dashboard gives you a roll-up view across all of them.
How is this different from EOS? +
EOS is built for companies with leadership teams, boards, and weekly management meetings. IFOS is built for one person running one or more businesses alone. Different problem, different system.
How much time does it take to run? +
Setup takes about 90 minutes — one conversation with Claude. After that, 30 minutes a week for your Founder Weekly, and a 90-minute quarterly reset. That's it.
What if I already use Notion or Google Docs for other things? +
IFOS lives in its own dedicated page set inside Notion. It won't touch anything you already have. If you're using IFOS Lite, it lives inside a dedicated Claude Project — completely separate from other projects.
Can I use this if I'm just starting out? +
Yes — especially then. The most valuable thing IFOS does is help you define your own version of success before you start optimising for someone else's.
What's the difference between IFOS and IFOS Lite? +
IFOS (Claude + Notion) gives you a full reference layer — formatted pages, a visual Pulse table, a quarterly Dashboard, and shareable documents. IFOS Lite runs entirely inside a Claude Project — faster to set up, great for one business, no Notion needed. Both cost the same and use the same onboarding process.
