Strategic Roadmap

From one-page strategy to 12-month plan in one click

Ratified canvas goes in. Four quarters, 12-16 ranked roadmap initiatives, KPIs per quarter, and one-click cascade into tasks + initiatives come out. Stop re-typing strategy into a project plan. Our AI engine does it in one coherent pass.

How it works

Start with a ratified Strategy Canvas. The roadmap generator reads your ambition, where-to-play domains, top moves, and 90-day commitments, then builds the next 12 months around them.

the AI writes four quarters in one coherent pass. Per-quarter theme, narrative, 2-4 KPIs, and 3-5 ranked roadmap initiatives with owner roles, effort estimates, and expected impact. Sequencing matters. Q2 builds on Q1, so the model thinks about the whole horizon at once.

Tick the roadmap initiatives you want to cascade. One click creates matching tasks in `/dashboard/tasks` and initiatives in `/dashboard/design/use-cases`, each back-referenced to the roadmap initiative via `source_roadmap_initiative_id`. Idempotent: already-cascaded roadmap initiatives skip.

Ratify when the team agrees. Ratified roadmaps are immutable. Regenerate to adjust, which produces a new draft at the next version. Supersession keeps the history; the exec team can always diff this quarter's plan against last quarter's.

Illustrative data

Strategy decks don't execute themselves

Without the roadmap generator

  • Strategy document and project plan drift apart within weeks
  • Tasks created in Jira/Linear with no back-reference to the strategy they serve
  • No quarter-by-quarter KPI gates: progress is vibes-based
  • Re-typing strategy into a slide deck every quarter burns exec hours

With the Strategic Roadmap

  • Every task and initiative drill-ups to its parent roadmap initiative via source_roadmap_initiative_id
  • Quarter KPIs enforce hard gates: you can't 'just move on' if Q1 didn't land
  • the AI rewrites quarters in situ when priorities shift, no manual reshuffle
  • The roadmap is one source of truth for strategy, board pack, OKRs, and tasks

What's inside the roadmap

Four-quarter structure

12 months sliced into four coherent quarters with themes that compound. Q1 foundation, Q2 scale, Q3 agents-everywhere, Q4 prove-value is a common shape, customised per your canvas.

Priority-ranked roadmap initiatives

Every roadmap initiative has priority 1 (must-ship), 2 (should-ship), or 3 (stretch). Visually distinct in the timeline so exec focus is unambiguous.

One-click cascade

Tick roadmap initiatives, click Cascade. Tasks and initiatives created in one batch, linked back to the source roadmap initiative. Idempotent: re-cascade is safe.

Stacks on Frontier Firm Designer

When a cascaded roadmap initiative belongs to a function in the Frontier Firm Designer, the link is carried through, one drill-up from task back to the org-design function.

Regenerate without losing context

New ratified canvas? Priorities shifted? Regenerate the roadmap and the AI rewrites quarters in the same version shape. Already-cascaded tasks keep their back-references.

Auditable supersession

Ratified roadmaps are immutable. Regenerate produces a new draft. When ratified, it supersedes the prior version, full history preserved.

1

Ratify the canvas

The roadmap consumes a ratified Strategy Canvas as its input. No canvas? Draft one first: the assessment feeds it.

2

the AI generates the roadmap

Four quarters, 12-16 roadmap initiatives, narratives + KPIs per quarter. Typically 18-25 seconds. Cost-guardrailed at 3 regenerations per day per org.

3

Cascade priority-1 roadmap initiatives

Tick the Q1 priority-1 boxes. Click Cascade. Tasks and initiatives materialise in the respective systems with back-references.

4

Ratify and review each quarter

Two owner/admin signatures lock the roadmap. Review quarterly: regenerate when the business shifts, not every sprint.

Strategy in one document and the backlog in another diverge within a month. Fronterio keeps the strategy in the platform, cascades the roadmap into delivery automatically, and pulls the board pack from the same source. One tree, not three.

How the Strategic Roadmap works

Included with Pro

Requires a ratified Strategy Canvas as input. Both Canvas and Roadmap are included in every Pro plan.
