Decision intelligence for product teams in the agentic era.

Six proof points up front. Eleven materials behind the gate. The Vanta for AI maturity, with a compound intelligence moat: pattern library on the surface, ranked actions in the workflow, calibration pipeline underneath.

Built by Darren Card, founder. CPTO at Lexful. Twenty years building B2B SaaS product orgs across eight verticals.

3 layers
The moat (stacked, not separate)

Surface: Pattern Library (Translation Gap, Fragility Signal, Compound Ready). Workflow: Ranked Actions (LNO-classified, archetype-conditioned). Engine: Calibration Pipeline (outcome capture, pattern discovery). Competitors can replicate any one. None can replicate the stack.

88 dims
Three frameworks, one diagnostic

Team Operations (24), Development Lifecycle (34), Product Assessment (27). Three substrates fused: operational adapters, public web, tribal knowledge. The moat is the fusion, not the unit count.

78-82%
Blended gross margin

COGS per score about $0.17. Pro COGS ~$32.50 on $299 list. Fine-tuning at the 2,000-customer inflection moves margin to 92%+ post-tune (3-6 month payback). Margin curve expands as usage grows, not compresses.

0% → 30%
Agent distribution (Battery thesis)

MCP server, Agent Skill, REST API all live. Reference: Neon hit 80% agent-originated inside 24 months. Plan: 30% by Q4 2027. If it misses, GTM falls back to inside-sales motion at Business and PLG at Pro. Both vectors tested.

$800K+
Revenue per FTE (modeled)

Pre-AI SaaS benchmark at Series B is roughly $200K ARR per FTE. Modeled at $800K+ on a 6-FTE founding team. Trajectory follows the agent-leverage curve, not the headcount curve.

Q4 2026
Pre-A milestone

≥100 paying customers, 50% Pro+ outcome data coverage, 3 patterns validated, first public pattern-validity report. Series A target Q2-Q3 2027 (≥300 customers, NRR > 110%). Real numbers, not projected ones.
