One meaning for every number your company reports

We agree what revenue, active customer and margin mean with every team, and write it down so every report counts the same way.

Drag to compare. Sample data.

Is this you?

If two of these sound familiar, this service was built for your situation.

Finance and sales report different revenue for the same month

Nobody can say exactly how "active customer" is calculated

New dashboards start arguments instead of ending them

What you get

Everything below is yours to keep, in your own accounts.

KPI map

Which decisions each KPI supports and who owns it

Metric dictionary

Definition, formula, source and owner for every metric

What the audit checks

Four areas, each with a sample finding from a typical engagement.

Area 1

Definitions

Each metric has one formula, one source and one owner

Sample finding: "active customer" is calculated four different ways.
Area 2

Conflicts

Where two reports use different logic for the same name

Sample finding: finance and sales revenue differ by 8% because of refunds.
Area 3

Coverage

Which decisions have no metric at all

Sample finding: nothing tracks repeat purchases, though it drives the budget.
Area 4

Governance

Who can change a definition, and how

Sample finding: anyone can edit the revenue formula in the shared sheet.

Questions about this service

Do you build dashboards too?
Not in this service. The dictionary becomes the blueprint if you do.
What format is the dictionary?
A shared spreadsheet or Notion page your team can maintain.
What if teams disagree?
We present the options and trade-offs; your decision-maker chooses.
