Cadence pulls your metrics from Stripe, GA, Linear, and GitHub, DMs each owner one targeted question on Thursday, drafts the full WBR doc by Friday morning, and chases every action item to closure between cycles. The 90-minute WBR becomes a 20-minute decision standup — or vanishes entirely.
15 minutes to connect Stripe + GitHub + Slack. First WBR draft ready Friday. Pilot is free for 2 cycles; $99/cadence after.
A 50-person startup burns ~12 hours of senior-IC time every week on WBR prep, attendance, and follow-up. The deck is stale by Friday afternoon. Half the room is on their laptop. 60% of action items never close. Cadence replaces the workflow, not just the slides.
You start building the WBR deck. Tabbing between Stripe, GA, Linear, and six Notion pages. Three of your owners haven't filed their updates yet — you DM them, then babysit replies.
Meeting starts. The deck reads like a metrics dump. Nobody calls out the pricing question that's been blocking GTM for two weeks. The discussion drifts to a P2 someone googled the night before.
Half the action items from Friday's WBR are still open. Nobody followed up. The next WBR's deck will have to recap them — losing 30 minutes to rehash before the new business even starts.
Connect Stripe, GA, Linear, GitHub, and Slack once. Cadence reads the metrics, asks the owners the right questions, drafts the WBR doc, and chases every decision and action item to closure — cycle after cycle.
The full WBR doc, drafted overnight from your metrics and owner replies. Five sections: Metrics vs. Target, What Shipped, At Risk, Decision Queue, Action Items. Every claim cited.
Cadence DMs each owner one targeted question on Slack — the kind a good TPM would ask in prep. Replies flow straight into the Friday draft. No more babysitting.
Every action item from Friday's WBR is tracked and chased to closure. Owners get a nudge on Tuesday and Thursday. The next WBR opens with closures, not a rehash.
The MCP ecosystem (Stripe, Linear, GitHub, Notion, Slack) hit critical mass in 2025. Claude can now ingest 30 data sources, write a coherent WBR narrative, and run a 5-turn Slack DM dialogue with each owner reliably. None of that was possible two years ago. Cadence rides that change.
You run (or skip) a Weekly Business Review. You've felt the Thursday spiral. You want the artifact you actually need, not another dashboard to babysit.
The pilot deal: 15 minutes to connect Stripe + GitHub + Slack, two full WBR cycles free, a 20-minute call with the founder between cycles. After cycle 2, you tell me yes or no on $99/cadence. No tricks, no auto-billing.
Apply for the pilot →OAuth Stripe, GitHub, Slack. Done.
Your first WBR doc lands in your inbox Friday 7am.
No seats. No tiers. No surprises at renewal.
Pay for the action items Cadence chases shut.
I spent years running Weekly Business Reviews and launch reviews on large consumer hardware programs — the kind with hundreds of cross-functional stakeholders and a thousand action items in flight at any moment. The pattern was always the same: the artifact was load-bearing, the prep was brutal, and the closure rate decided whether the org actually moved.
Every "WBR template" I've seen since is a Notion doc that gets copied once and abandoned. Every "operating cadence" tool is a project tracker in a trench coat. None of them do the work — they just give you a place to do it yourself.
Cadence is the WBR system I wish I'd had at scale, sized for a 50-person startup. If you're a founder or operator reading this, I want to hear from you — even if you don't sign up.

Founders and COOs at 30–100 person startups who run (or should run) a Weekly Business Review. If you spend 4 hours every Thursday building the WBR deck, the meeting runs 90 minutes, half the room is on their laptop, and 60% of action items never close — you're our buyer.
Four things. (1) Pulls your metrics from Stripe, GA, Linear, and GitHub on Thursday morning. (2) DMs each cadence owner one targeted question on Slack — the kind a good TPM would ask in prep. (3) Drafts the full WBR doc by Friday morning: Metrics vs. Target, What Shipped, At Risk, Decision Queue, Action Items. (4) Chases every action item to closure between cycles. Your meeting becomes a 20-minute decision standup, or vanishes entirely.
Dashboards show you charts and leave the synthesis to you. Cadence writes the narrative, asks the owners the right questions, and closes the loop on action items. It's not a tool that gives you data — it's a TPM that runs the artifact.
Cadence is built by a TPM who ran Weekly Business Reviews at scale on large cross-functional launches. The prompts, the dialogue patterns, the action-item chase mechanics are the same ones used to run launches with thousands of stakeholders — adapted for a 50-person startup. The WBR templates are open-source on GitHub; read the prompts before you sign up.
Read-only OAuth scopes for every integration (Stripe, GA, Linear, GitHub, Slack). We never read source code or PII into our models — only PR metadata, ticket metadata, top-line metric snapshots, and message text from the dialogues you authorize. Workspaces are isolated by Postgres row-level security. SOC2 Type 1 in progress; DPAs available for pilots.
$99/month per WBR cadence — most companies run one or two (executive WBR, eng WBR). Per-closed-action-item overage above the included quota, capped per tier. Enterprise tier at $2k/month adds custom dashboards and SSO. No seat pricing — Cadence charges for the work, not the head count.
GitHub and Slack are live. Stripe, GA, and Linear are rolling out to pilots in the next two weeks via MCP connectors. Claude (Anthropic) is the synthesis model. Notion / Confluence export for the published WBR doc is on deck for v1.1.
Yes — sample WBR docs (and the open-source templates) are at github.com/alexstelea/wbr-templates. Read the doc, decide if it's the artifact you want. If yes, the pilot is 15 minutes to set up.
Pilot is two free WBR cycles, 15-minute setup. Drop your work email — we'll DM you a sample WBR generated against your real stack within 48 hours.
