The Role Map: every job in your business,
written down properly.

Two files you hand to your team. Each person spends 10 to 25 minutes being interviewed by ChatGPT or Claude about what they actually do all day, and gets a written record of their own job out of it. You get every one of those, plus a read on where the hours really go and what is worth automating first.

  • Your team does the talking. Nobody knows a job like the person doing it.
  • Runs inside ChatGPT or Claude on a free account. Nothing to install.
  • 10 minutes a person on the quick version, 25 on the full one.
  • You keep the documents. They are useful long after the automation question.

Built by Raghave at SideKick Studio. I kept running AI audits for Australian businesses that stalled in week one, because no owner could tell me what their team's week actually looked like. This is the thing I built to fix that, and it is free.

The gap

Job descriptions describe the role you hired for.
The work drifted years ago.

A job description gets written once, when the role goes up on Seek. Then the person in the seat quietly reshapes the job around whatever needs doing that month. Three years on they are spending Tuesday mornings on a reconciliation nobody asked for, because that is how the last person did it.

The wasted hours live in that drift. Ask an owner where their bookkeeper's week goes and the answer is usually about 60% right. Ask the bookkeeper and you get the reconciliation, the chasing, a spreadsheet kept in step with Xero by hand, and the four times a week somebody asks her the same question about invoice terms.

Nobody has ever sat down and asked her properly. That is the entire idea here.

What it digs for

The work nobody
writes down.

The interview spends a whole section on this, because people under-report all of it. It does not feel like real work to the person doing it, so it never makes a job description and never comes up in a review.

Chasing

Five minutes here and there spent asking someone for a file, an approval or a number. It never feels like work, so nobody counts it. It is often the single biggest line in a finished Role Map.

Double entry

The same detail typed into two systems. Or a spreadsheet somebody keeps in step with the software by hand, every Friday, because the two were never connected.

Checking

Logging in to confirm something happened. The report ran, the payment cleared, the job got assigned to someone. Pure overhead, and invisible until you ask.

Fixing

Repairing things that should not have broken. Usually caused by one of the three above, and usually the reason a Tuesday disappears.

The same answer, again

The question that turns up every week and gets answered from scratch every time, because the answer was never written down anywhere the asker could find it.

How it runs

Four steps, and
almost none of them yours.

01

Two files land in your inbox

They arrive a minute or so after you fill in the form. Plain markdown files plus a page of instructions covering how to introduce this to your team and what to say when someone asks why.

02

Your team gets interviewed

Each person uploads the first file into ChatGPT or Claude and gets asked about their job, one question at a time. Quick mode is 12 questions and runs about 10 minutes. Full mode is 23 questions and runs about 25. They choose which.

03

They send you their Role Map

The AI writes it up in their own words. Where the week goes, what happens daily and weekly and at month end, what breaks, what they would delete tomorrow, and what would fall over if they took a fortnight off.

04

You run the company-wide analysis

Upload the second file along with every completed Role Map. Out comes the whole-business read: hours by activity, duplicated work, single points of failure, and a prioritised list of what to automate first.

How long the whole thing takes

Ten minutes a person on quick mode, twenty-five on full. For a team of eight that is under three hours of company time in total, and none of those hours are yours. Reading the Role Maps and running the analysis costs you about fifteen minutes once they are all back.

What you end up with

A written record of your business,
as it actually runs.

Worth having even if you never automate a thing. Handovers, hiring, restructures and performance conversations all get easier when the work is on paper.

One Role Map per person

  • What the job actually is, in plain language, rather than the ad you posted three years ago
  • Where their week goes, broken into areas of work with a rough share against each
  • Every daily, weekly and monthly task, with a rough duration and the tool it happens in
  • The invisible work: chasing, double entry, checking things happened, fixing breakage, answering the same question again
  • What currently depends on that one person and would stall without them
  • The task they would delete tomorrow, and what they would do with a free day a week

One analysis across the company

  • Total hours a week the team loses to chasing, double entry, checking and fixing, costed out in dollars if you hand it an hourly rate
  • The same job being done twice by two people who had no idea about each other
  • Where handoffs stall, named on both sides: who is waiting, and who keeps getting interrupted
  • Single points of failure, and exactly what stops if that person is away for a fortnight
  • The systems your team is manually bridging because the software does not talk
  • Every recurring task scored and ranked, from start-here through to leave-this-alone

Questions

The things owners ask
before they send it out.

Is the Role Map actually free?
Yes. Two files, no payment and no trial. I built it because every audit I run starts at the same place: nobody has written down what the team does. If you want help acting on what it turns up, that is a separate conversation and you are free to skip it.
Do I need a paid ChatGPT or Claude account?
No. The free tier of either one handles the interview fine. If your team already runs Copilot or Gemini it works there too, though I have tested it most on ChatGPT and Claude.
Will my team think this is about cutting jobs?
It is the first thing they will wonder, so the file answers it in the opening message and again if anyone asks directly. The interview never mentions automation, never suggests improvements and never comments on how busy someone is. It records the work and stops there. Telling your team why you are doing it, in your own words, before you send the file does more than anything I can write into it.
How many people should I run it with?
Everyone whose week you could not describe accurately if I asked you right now. In a 5 to 50 person business that is usually most of the team. Three people works, it is just a thinner picture.
Where do my team's answers go?
Nowhere near me. Each person runs the interview inside their own ChatGPT or Claude account and sends the finished document straight to you. I never see it. The only thing that reaches me is the name, email and business name you type into the form on this page.
Do I need to be technical to run this?
No. Uploading a file into ChatGPT is the hardest part of the whole exercise, and the instructions that come with the files walk through it step by step.
