The missing line.

Nothing in the accounts states what your automation costs against what it does. The report adds that line.

Six readings. One score. One place among your peers.

The readings come from your CEO and your six function heads, and cover the automation running your company's core work.

Full methodology

Six readings, one kn0w Score.

Each reading runs from 0 to 100 and is weighted into the kn0w Score. Every reading, and the score, lands in one of four bands: Embedded, Systematic, Early-stage or Minimal.

Placed against your peers.

Same sector, same country, same size band. A placement is published only where the peer set is large enough to protect every company in it. Where it isn't, the report says so.

47th percentile

AU FinTech, 50 to 500 staff

The score places the company on the 0 to 100 scale. The percentile places it against its peers. Two measures, read separately.

How a report is issued.

Seven sessions produce the report. Three Quarterly Reviews and the Annual Report follow it.

How it works, in full
  1. 1

    Sessions

    A written form, then a recorded session with your CEO and each function head. About 10 minutes for the CEO, 45 for each head.

  2. 2

    Readings

    Weights are fixed for each methodology version and applied to every report under it. The same answers give the same reading.

  3. 3

    Issue

    Every report carries a four-part identifier. That version never changes. Corrections are versioned, never silent.

  4. 4

    Review

    Three Quarterly Reviews, then the Annual Report. Movement is stated against a named methodology version.

Your board reads it. Your next lead investor can rely on it.

For your board

The Board Summary carries the kn0w Score and its band, the weakest reading, the widest gap between what the CEO believes and what the functions run, and three required actions, each with an owner.

For your next lead investor

Lead institutional investors in your next priced round can rely on the report, once you name them in writing.
