You are helping a B2B founder map a buying committee for a paid product pilot that must convert to a PO.

Company / product: [YOUR COMPANY + PRODUCT]
Buyer account: [ACCOUNT NAME + INDUSTRY]
Pilot problem: [ONE-SENTENCE PROBLEM]
Target ACV if criteria hit: [AMOUNT]
Pilot window: [START] to [END]
Known contacts so far: [NAMES / TITLES / NOTES]

Produce a buying-committee scorecard as a markdown table with columns:
Name | Role (champion / economic buyer / user / procurement / security-IT / other) | Attitude (positive / negative / neutral) | What they care about | Last touch (date or unknown) | Next action (specific, dated if possible) | Owner on our side

Rules:
- Invent no fake people. Use ___ for unknown names.
- Include each role even if vacant. Mark Name as ___ and Attitude as unknown.
- Next actions must be concrete (email, meeting, artifact), not "build relationship".
- End with 3 bullets: biggest risk, who to multi-thread next, what to do before kickoff.
