shackled by your own team and feel like the business' biggest bottleneck?
here's how to extract yourself from all dependencies and get back up to 20+ hours per week, while building an autonomous and efficient team that's operationally simple and lets you take a holiday when you want
in just 8 minutes, using the same founder-extraction tools over 4,830 million-dollar business owners already use.
the team temp check™ shows you who's in the wrong role, who to promote, and where the dependencies are... without endless meetings or evaluations, so you can take a long arse holiday, and make the business run like a well oiled machine while you're gone.
companies that trust us:
your linkedin says "founder". your calendar says "babysitter".
you didn’t build this thing just to be everyone’s emotional support animal.
you hired a team. you scaled revenue. and yet - you're stuck running triage with weeks like this:
slack pings that hit like jump scares
death-by "got a sec" meetings
every hat in the closet - from pm to qa
work only gets done if you babysit it
caffeine-fueled marathons and sleep debt
weekend off? lol, as if.
these aren't personal flaws. they're system failures.
and you can fix it fast -like "8 minutes" fast.
this is not just a team assessment. it's a founder extraction tool.
extraction doesn’t only mean exyt. it means you choose when to plug in - not scramble to plug every leak.
team temp check™ is your first pry bar out:
to show you exactly where your business is still structurally dependent on you - and what to change first to stop the bleeding.
in just 8 minutes, you'll know:
where decisions default to you
which roles are structurally f*cked (even with decent people)
who needs to step up - and who needs to sit down
what's draining your time with zero ROI
what you get
(and why it works in days, not months)
the 8-minute diagnostic
a dead-simple spreadsheet built on our triple c™ model - surfaces leaks in authority + workload without a single meeting.

who we are
exyt exists to solve one problem: to get founders the hell out of operational quicksand.
we’re not coaches. we’re not motivational speakers. and we’re definitely not gurus.
we design systems that let you step out - without your biz falling apart like a car held together with zip ties.
the receipts:
$500m+ revenue under advisory
hundreds of time-rich owners across service, saas, and product businesses
40+ years combined fixing team flow + ownership chaos
created by a guy who lived founder hell
the team temp check™ was created by Andrew Sparks, founder of exyt.
Andrew built his first 8-figure business at age 23 - and paid for it with:
18-hour days
every fire routed to him
a team that couldn't move without dad's permission
he rebuild it from the inside:
clear ownership
defined decisions
escalation filters that didn't scream "founder needed"
that rebuild became exyt. then the team temp check™.
from “always on” to off-the-grid: founders who excaped
3 weeks away. zero calls. team didn't miss a beat.
Chris was the guy for every damn thing. capable team. still the chokepoint.
after the team temp check™:
spotted 3 people creating 25+ hours of founder drag
rewired roles + reset decisions
cut 32 hours from his weekly workload
took a 3-week vacation with zero contact - biz thrived
720 hours reclaimed. calendar unlocked.
"i just bought back 720 hours into my calendar this year."
- Pat Ikonomidis
from never-off to fully-out.
"i can actually step away from the business now, which i never felt. i could do before."
-JP Armstrong
burning out or breaking free? they chose free.
"we stopped waiting for a magic pill - and started fixing the right things. total game changer".
- Pamorn Martdee
fired himself from the daily ops - got his life back.
Nick was buried in decision debt. everything ran through him.
after the team temp check™:
slashed his weekly workload by 35%
offloaded all the sh*t he hated to someone capable
built space to think, plan, and actually enjoy the biz
"the biggest shift? i stopped being the bottleneck. i do what i'm good at - and others handle the rest."
- Nick Hodgson

read this if you’re thinking "i don’t have time"
exactly.
that's the problem.
this exists because you don’t have the bandwidth to fix sh*t manually.
because you’re already the bottleneck. the last stop. the glue holding this ticking bomb together.
because your family gets your energy leftovers after breakdowns.
because your team’s learned to wait, not act.
because your body’s running on fumes, but pausing feels like a death sentence.
let’s be clear: you CAN keep going like this (most founders do).
but keep going like this and you don’t get a medal -
you turn into a ticking time bomb waiting to blow up your health, your team, or your relationships.
or...
8 minutes to diagnose. 2 hours to implement. 20+ hours back, fast.
your move.

frequently asked questions
is this going to create more work for me?
no. that’s the point.
it's meant for when you've got zero capacity - not for when you're "in the mood" to optimise.
the diagnostic takes 8 minutes. there's no prep. no team involvement.
every fix it shows you is designed to remove crap from your plate, not add more to it.
do i need to involve my team in this?
nope. it's founder-only. you run the spreadsheet solo.
what if i already know where the problems are?
if knowing was enough, you wouldn't still be the bottleneck.
this make the invisible visible - with exact steps + scripts to fix it.
is this just another team assessment or personality test?
hell no. it doesn't assess people. it reveals structural f*ckery that routes work back to you.
what if i don’t implement everything?
then don't most founders get relief and 20+ hours back from fixing 1-2 leaks.
how fast will i see results?
clarity in 8 minutes. escalation drops in days. this ain't a 90-day journaling exercise. it's designed to hit now.
this is how you stop being the business
you get:
the full team temp check™ system
2 bonuses ($344 value)

or you can fix the root - today.
