Reading Your Dashboard
The Dashboard is built to give you the 60-second answer to "is our AI program working?" Reports is for the deep dive; the Dashboard is the briefing. Here's how to read each section, top to bottom.
The top strip — Program health
A compact toolbar showing how many Tools, Pulses and Users you have active. Hover or click any number to jump to the detail page.
This is also where the period selector lives. Everything on the Dashboard is calculated over the last 30 days by default; you can change this to 7 / 14 / 90 days as you like.
The four headline gauges
Directly below the strip, four gauges tell you the health of your AI program at a glance:
- ROI — return on spend (e.g. 7.9× means every $1 spent returned $7.90 of time-saved value)
- Hours saved — total hours your team reports reclaimed this period
- Active users — what percentage of your assigned seats are actually being used
- Satisfaction — average rating across all pulse responses
Each gauge has two numbers: the raw value (big, in the middle) and a health score from 0 to 100 (driving the coloured dial). The dial colour tells you at a glance where you sit:
| Colour | Band | Label | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🔴 Red | 0-40 | Needs attention | Intervene this week |
| 🟠 Orange | 40-70 | Okay | Watch it |
| 🟢 Green | 70-90 | Strong | Keep doing what you're doing |
| 🟢 Bright green | 90-100 | Excellent | Tell the CFO |
The reason we normalise everything to 0-100 is so you can compare metrics directly — a 78 on ROI means the same kind of "strong" as a 78 on satisfaction. Without that, you'd be holding four different mental rubrics in your head at once. More on the methodology →
Per-pulse panels
Below the headline gauges, each of your active pulses gets its own panel: The AI Pulse, The AI Review, The AI Capability Check. Each panel has:
- Its own four-gauge strip (smaller) showing the numbers specific to that pulse
- Top tools by ROI — a compact scorecard of which tools the pulse has captured the most signal for
- Plain-English insights — a short bulleted list of things worth knowing (e.g. "Jasper is barely paying for itself — 0.5× ROI vs. your org average of 6.9×")
These panels are the meat of the Dashboard. A glance at them tells you where to spend the next hour of your time.
Hiding a pulse from your view
Each panel has a small ✕ in the top-right corner. Clicking it hides the panel from your dashboard view only — data keeps flowing, other admins still see it, and you can restore it from the "Hidden pulses" strip at the bottom of the page.
Top tools across all pulses
Below the per-pulse panels, a consolidated table shows your tools ranked by ROI. Each row gives you:
- Active — users active this period / total assigned
- Satisfaction — average rating, normalised to a percentage
- Hours saved — reported hours from this tool
- ROI — multiplier, colour-coded (olive ≥ 5×, navy 2-5×, crimson < 2×)

Trend pair
Two small line charts at the bottom:
- Hours saved — daily, over the selected period
- Pulses received — daily volume of completed pulses
A falling line on Pulses received means your team has stopped responding — usually a sign the extension's been uninstalled by one or more users, or a rollout issue. Investigate before the rest of the numbers decay.
Banners you might see
Three banners can appear near the top, each telling you something needs attention:
- Trial countdown — "X days left on your trial" (only shown to owners/admins)
- Hourly rate not set — ROI stays blank until you set a blended rate
- Unverified email — we're nudging you to confirm so invites work
Each is dismissable for the session, or actionable with one click.
What's not on the Dashboard
Deliberately: verbatim comments, response-level data, and any individual identification. The Dashboard shows you team-level signal; drill into Reports for the comment streams, per-user breakdowns, and anomaly detection.
This is also why we can promise your team "no-one sees who said what" — the Dashboard literally has nowhere to show that.
