Summarize the decision for your board

Find out where your discounts go

Upload your won and lost deals as a CSV and Caliper shows where your discounts go: by segment, by sales rep, and won against lost. It then names the most likely reason your prices leak and writes a step-by-step plan to fix it.

Review your portfolio and decide where to focus

Fulcrum reviews where your capital goes across business lines, products or bets. It places every unit on a nine-box of market attractiveness against competitive strength, shows which units are subsidized and which strong ones are starved of capital, and ends with a grow, hold, fix or exit call for each unit and a budget move that adds up.

Find out how your plan breaks before you commit

Paste in a plan and Pressure Test tries to break it. It lists what has to be true for the plan to work, grades the evidence behind each belief, plays out your rivals' responses round by round, and ranks the risks that are most likely to hurt you, with an owner, an early warning sign and a response for each.

Turn the chosen strategy into work your team can run

Ratchet turns a chosen strategy into work you can run. It forces a ranking of your initiatives into a shortlist that fits your capacity and a kill list with reasons, lays the shortlist out as a phased roadmap with owners and a first 90 days, designs the operating model to deliver it, and keeps a value ledger that tracks every promised benefit with dated check-ins. You keep several named plans and make every call; AI drafts each stage.

Make the big decision in confirmed stages

Strategic Decision Assistant walks you through a big decision in six stages: get the facts straight, weigh your real options, build the numbers, write the recommendation memo, plan the pre-wire of the people you need on side (optional), and turn it into a story you can present. Each stage is reviewed and confirmed before the next one runs, so nothing moves forward on a guess.

Size the market and find the white space

Surveyor sizes a market two ways, finds where buyers are poorly served, and shows where along the value chain the profit is made. The tool does the arithmetic itself, flags when the two size estimates disagree instead of averaging them, and ends with a clear move: where to play and how to get there.

Know what your competitors will do next

The Rival reads up to five competitor pages and builds a profile of each. It compares your product with them side by side, then predicts what each competitor is likely to do next and how you could respond. Use it before a pricing change, a launch or a planning meeting.

Decide who you should be selling to

The Scope helps a founder decide who to sell to. Describe your company and optionally add a customer list, then work through five stages: best-fit segments, one ideal customer profile, the buying committee, prospects to avoid, and messaging. You review and confirm each stage, then download a file that lists everything you confirmed.

Check that your work matches your strategy

Inventories a group's tools by rack (Priorities/Pillar/Pulse), then AI-scores how well execution-tool usage (Sifter, Pliers, Compass) supports strategic-tool data (The Level, governance) and stores run history.

Capture your SWOT and turn it into ranked options

The Level helps you capture a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats), run a TOWS-style matching analysis that pairs internal and external factors, and turn those matches into ranked strategic options with a simple scoring model.

Decide who decides, and how

Your Strategic Partner – Governance helps you turn saved strategic options (from your SWOT and TOWS workflow) into a practical governance model: who decides what, how you run cadences, how you handle risk, and how to balance speed with control.

Turn your standards into something people follow

The Standards & Alignment Tracker turns standards into something your team follows: load a pack, your own documents or a saved Governance model, deploy with an AI-built plan, reinforce, measure and check content against them.

Check which subcontractors are cleared to work

Track the insurance certificates, licenses and safety cards of the subcontractors on each job. The Gauge shows who is cleared to be on site this week and who is not, with the reason, and lists every document that expires in the next 30 days. Upload a certificate of insurance and the AI reads the policies and dates for you to check and save, or type them in yourself. Get a weekly email of what is missing or running out. Track up to 50 subcontractors across your jobs.
