Every metric the board asks for. Steered, not just shown.
ARR, NRR, CAC payback, Rule of 40, runway — live from the systems you already run, each on one published definition. But a number you can only look at is a rear-view mirror. Beacon puts your target, your peers, and the next move on every one.
By the board meeting, the number is late, disputed, or both.
Nobody trusted the number
Sales, Finance and the board each brought their own ARR. The meeting went to reconciling it — not deciding on it.
You saw the drift too late

The pack ate a week
