Delivery intelligence for teams

Don’t just know what shipped — know why things stalled and what to do next.

Align reads every system your team works in, traces blockers to their root cause, and delivers a clear digest with concrete next steps — before a delay becomes a fire.

The problem

The blocker existed for days.
No one saw it until it was too late.

Work is spread across GitHub, Jira, your inbox, Slack, and your CRM. The information to catch a problem early is always there — but nobody has time to read across all of it, connect the dots, and act.

01

Status theatre

Standups and weekly reports cost real hours and still miss what’s stuck. People summarize themselves selectively — that’s human.

02

Tool sprawl

The signal lives in GitHub, Linear, your inbox, the CRM, the calendar. No single person reads all of them every week.

03

No root cause

Dashboards show that something is late. They don’t tell you why — and they never tell you what to do differently next time.

04

Blockers hide

The thing quietly stalled for nine days is exactly what no report surfaces — until it’s a fire.

See it in action

Real blockers. Real root causes.
Any industry.

Align works wherever work leaves a trace. Here’s what a digest looks like for four very different teams.

Impact
$240k ARR at risk. 3 enterprise deals gated on the same blocked feature.
Action
48h auto-reminder on cross-team threads with a named dependency owner.
Root cause

A security review reply went unanswered for 9 days. Align found the email thread, linked it to the blocked Jira ticket, and identified the gap nobody noticed because it lived in someone’s inbox.

Business impact

$240k ARR at risk across 3 deals waiting on the same feature flag. Align connected the engineering blocker to the CRM pipeline — a link no standup would ever surface.

Actionable next step

48-hour auto-reminder on unanswered cross-team threads with a named dependency owner. One process change prevents this class of delay from recurring.

Surfaced
Marcus: 0 commits in 4 days, no blocker logged. Found by cross-referencing tickets, commits, and PR activity — not self-reported.
Automated
Daily standups, sprint reviews, retro drafts — generated from what actually happened, not what people said.
Fairness
Everyone sees the same data. Top performers surface automatically. A shared scoreboard, not a secret one.
What Align surfaces

Per-contributor velocity linked directly to tickets and commits — not self-reported. Marcus’s inactivity isn’t flagged as a blocker anywhere in Jira. Align found it by cross-referencing assignments, commits, and PR activity.

What you get automatically

Daily standups. Sprint reviews. Retro drafts. All generated from what actually happened — not what people said in the meeting. Every claim linked to a ticket or commit. Sprint retrospectives based on pattern detection across multiple sprints.

A shared scoreboard, not a secret one

Every contributor sees the same digest. Top performers are recognized automatically. No politics, no selective summaries — the data is the same for the team lead and the CEO. That’s what makes it fair.

Impact
$180k in missed campaign revenue. Fully preventable — information existed, sat unseen.
Action
Shared supplier inbox with 48h SLA and auto-escalation after 2 days silence.
Root cause

A supplier email landed in a personal inbox, not a shared one. Align found the thread, saw it was never replied to, and traced it forward to the inventory gap and the closed order window.

Business impact

$180k in missed revenue for a campaign that was planned months ago. The problem was fully preventable — the information existed, it just sat unseen in an inbox.

Actionable next step

Shared supplier inbox with a 48h reply SLA and an auto-escalation rule. One routing change closes this gap permanently.

Cause
Champion left, no backup contact. Procurement contact in the deal record had never been emailed.
Impact
$320k deal at 38% close probability. Q2 target now at 73% — CFO is watching.
Action
2 named contacts required for all deals >$200k. 5-day inactivity alert to VP Sales.
Root cause

A champion departure triggered no escalation because the deal had only one contact. Align cross-referenced the CRM contact list with sent email history to confirm the procurement contact had never been reached.

Business impact

$320k deal at risk, Q2 target at 73%. The deal data was all in Salesforce — no one was looking at it holistically because the champion was the only relationship.

Actionable next step

Multi-contact policy for deals over $200k and a 5-day inactivity alert to VP Sales. Two rules that prevent a single point of failure in the pipeline.

Impact
$87k backlog, $22k in penalties, 3 customer SLAs breached — traceable to a $200 config gap.
Action
Raise maintenance auto-approval to $8k. 3-day escalation rule for any unassigned PO.
Root cause

A PO $200 over the auto-approval limit sat in a queue for 39 days with no assigned approver. Align connected the ERP maintenance ticket to the PO record and traced the silence back to a misconfigured approval threshold.

Business impact

$87k backlog, $22k in penalties, 3 breached SLAs — all traceable to a $200 threshold gap. No one connected the dots because the maintenance system and the procurement system are separate.

Actionable next step

Raise the maintenance auto-approval threshold to $8k and add a 3-day escalation rule for unassigned POs. One configuration change prevents a recurring class of downtime.

The reporting layer

Your team already reports
to their tools. Align reports to you.

Every commit, every ticket update, every unanswered email is already a data point. Align is the layer that reads all of it and delivers insight up the chain — without asking anyone to do anything extra.

Individual contributors
Engineers, ops, sales reps
IC
They just do their work Push commits, update tickets, reply to emails — same as always. No extra reporting required.

The conversation Align is designed to enable
How it works

Connect once. Get root cause
on a schedule.

1

Connect

Link the tools your team already uses. Read-only, scoped access — nothing more.

2

Track deltas

Align watches what changed since the last digest, across every connected system simultaneously.

3

Reason

The agent connects signals across tools, identifies root causes, and surfaces what a good team lead would catch — at scale.

4

Deliver + act

A sourced digest lands in your channel with concrete next steps. Ask follow-ups in the thread.

Connects to

The systems where work leaves a trace.

Engineering-first to start — the tools with the clearest signal — then outward into how the rest of your company moves.

GitHub
Linear

Built on the Model Context Protocol — open connectors, not brittle one-off integrations.

Where we stand

Visibility, not surveillance.

Accountability tools fail when they feel like spying. Align makes work visible — which teams actually want. That’s a product choice, and a deliberate one.

What Align does
  • + Surfaces root causes, not just symptoms
  • + Delivers concrete next steps in every digest
  • + Posts in shared channels — everyone sees the same picture
  • + Replaces status meetings, not trust
What it won’t do
  • No keystroke or screen tracking
  • No individual idle-time scoring
  • No private DMs or off-channel snooping
  • No data sold or used to train models
The agent

The thinking your team lead does on Friday afternoon, automated.

Someone on your team reads tickets, threads, PRs, and emails every week to figure out where things really stand. Align is the agent that does that job — across every tool at once.

ROOT CAUSE

It connects signals across tools. A blocker in Jira, an email in Gmail, a deal in the CRM — Align reads all three and tells you the one thing causing the problem.

JUDGMENT

Reads the work, not dashboards. It reviews what actually changed and decides what’s notable — the synthesis a good team lead does, at scale.

GROUNDED

Every claim traces to a source. Reports cite the exact ticket, thread, or deal — never a guess or a confident hallucination.

PRIVATE

Your data stays yours. Never sold, never used to train models — a clean answer for any security review.
