Why Industry Packs Matter
Every Verdikt team gets the four Universal C-Suite advisors — The Founder (CEO), The Comptroller (CFO), The Operator (COO), and The Sentinel (Legal/Risk). These cover the business fundamentals that every company needs: strategy, finance, operations, and legal protection.
But the real magic happens when you add industry specialists. A generic CFO doesn't know that restaurant food costs should stay under 32%. A generic operations advisor doesn't know OSHA scaffolding codes. A generic legal advisor won't catch the indemnity clause hidden in a DoorDash merchant agreement. Industry specialists bring the domain expertise that turns good advice into great advice.
Your industry pack adds 4 specialist advisors who understand your world. The question is: which pack fits your business?

What If My Business Spans Multiple Industries?
Some businesses don't fit neatly into one category. A farm-to-table restaurant might relate to both Agriculture and Restaurants. A gym that sells supplements might span Fitness and Retail. Here's how to think about it:
Pick the pack that matches your hardest decisions. If your farm-to-table restaurant's toughest calls are about menu pricing, food costs, and staffing — go with Restaurants. If they're about crop yield, irrigation, and land use — go with Agriculture. The C-Suite advisors (Founder, Comptroller, Operator, Sentinel) cover the universal business angles regardless.
If you're on a Premium plan, you can also run specific sessions with manual panel selection, pulling in whichever specialists you need for that particular decision. But for your default pack, choose the industry where your biggest bets happen.
