Set performance-based targets.

Every quarter, peer companies ship faster. We benchmark your team against your peer cohort in real time, then move your targets up to keep pace. The bar isn't where you were, it's where they are.

  • Targets re-indexed weekly against your peer cohort's actual output
  • See exactly how fast the curve is moving and where you sit on it
  • Slack alerts when the cohort accelerates and your team falls behind
