Introducing Momentum

Spreadsheets and scattered tools killing your team's vibe? Momentum brings clarity, alignment, and speed back to your workflow.

TL;DR

  • Your scattered tooling data holds untapped insights.
  • Company culture lives in daily actions—not just values docs.
  • Slack overload kills productivity; dashboards restore sanity.
  • Momentum pulls your existing tools together effortlessly.
  • Clear ownership and real-time project health—instantly.

The Visibility Problem in Growing Companies

If you’re scaling a SaaS startup, you've felt it:

  • Endless Slack pings asking for "quick updates."
  • Status meetings ballooning faster than your team.
  • Vital information buried across dozens of siloed tools.

When your company hits 50–500 people, this chaos multiplies. McKinsey reports the average employee spends up to 20% of their week hunting for info. Leadership spends even more—time you can’t afford to lose.

You need a single, clear picture, without drowning your team in new processes.

Big Ideas

1 — Your "Tooling Exhaust" Is a Hidden Goldmine

Your existing tools (GitHub, Linear, Notion, Zendesk, Slack, and more) constantly create data—call it "tooling exhaust." Most of it gets ignored, but it's packed with actionable insights.

Think of it like your car’s exhaust. Normally, it just disappears into thin air. But what if that exhaust contained fuel that could power your journey further?

Momentum captures this exhaust from your existing stack and translates it into:

  • Clear snapshots of project health.
  • Immediate flags for risks and blockers.
  • Automatic milestone tracking.

Instead of chasing updates, Momentum gives leaders instant visibility into what's on track—and what’s veering off course.

Actionable takeaway:
Stop ignoring your tooling exhaust. Momentum makes your existing data work for you—without adding friction.

2 — Your Culture Is What You Actually Do

Culture isn’t your values page or team-building retreats. It’s how your company actually operates every day.

Ownership, accountability, transparency—these values only matter if your team lives them consistently. Momentum makes this effortless by clearly surfacing who owns what, and by keeping accountability transparent.

Imagine always knowing exactly who’s responsible for every initiative, every milestone, every KPI. No guessing games. No finger-pointing.

  • Projects have clear ownership and due dates.
  • Teams have live org charts reflecting real-time responsibilities.
  • Dashboards surface trends, identify bottlenecks, and highlight wins.

Your culture stops being aspirational. It becomes tangible, visible, and measurable.

Actionable takeaway:
Use Momentum to move your culture from abstract principles to concrete daily behaviors.

3 — Death by a Thousand Slack Pings

Slack promised streamlined communication. Yet somehow, your day fills with relentless “quick questions” and “status checks.” Every interruption pulls your brain from deep work, costing productivity and peace of mind.

The cost is real: research from UC Irvine shows it takes 23 minutes to regain focus after interruptions. Multiply that by dozens of interruptions daily, and you’re facing a productivity disaster.

Momentum eliminates the noise by providing self-serve visibility:

  • Real-time dashboards update automatically.
  • AI summaries proactively surface what needs attention.
  • Trends reveal project trajectories without extra meetings.

Fewer interruptions, fewer meetings, fewer headaches. Just clarity.

Actionable takeaway:
Stop the Slack madness. Momentum gives your team the clarity they crave without constant pings.

How Momentum Fits Into Your Workflow

Momentum doesn’t ask your team to change tools or habits—it meets them where they already work. By integrating seamlessly, Momentum infers critical insights and automatically compiles them into actionable dashboards. You keep your stack; Momentum makes it smarter.
