The missing layer for managing performance

Performix is a research library and team diagnostic for leaders

See evidence-graded research for 28 outcomes, then find the condition most likely holding your team back without scoring individual employees.

Who are you here as?

Start with who you are; we suggest the outcomes people in your seat usually need to move. Every outcome opens on the model of what the research says drives it.

The path

Start with research. Add your team’s answers when ready.

Begin with the published model and your own estimates. That gives you a research-based starting point before asking the team for anything, and Performix keeps those estimates labelled as estimates. Add team answers when you need a clearer view of capability, alignment, motivation and support. The diagnostic then narrows the condition most likely constraining the outcome. For sales quota attainment, the signed-out model also ranks the three measurements that would reduce uncertainty most, so you can see what evidence is worth collecting next.

  1. Stone 1

    Walk your situation

    No data at all. Pick the outcome you want to move; the model of what moves it, built from the peer-reviewed research, plus your own intuition.

  2. Stone 2

    Add your team's answers

    Walk it again with what your team tells us in a short survey, including our measures of the conditions that drive performance.

  3. Stone 3

    Add your systems

    Walk it with data from your own systems alongside the survey. Certainty and specificity tighten with every stone.

  4. Stone 4

    Widen the data

    Expand the data points collected, adding further certainty to the model.

The same walk at every stone: your outcome's model → what matters most now → fix / check. Solid = how it works. Dashed = what feeds it as you move up.
  • Every stone is the same walk, built around the outcome you are trying to achieve. What changes is how much of your own data is in it.
  • Each stone tightens certainty and specificity: from the research and your judgement, to your team, to your systems.
  • Move up when you are ready, not before.

Two ways to buy

Buy one diagnosis, a team plan or organization access.

Plans are $49 a month per team, $399 a month for a whole organization, or $99 per diagnosis. Use a single diagnosis for one immediate decision, or choose monthly access at team or organization scope. Each option begins with the research behind the outcome and adds team-level measurement.

For yourself

Buy it as a coach, a manager or an executive. One seat, your situation, the whole path.

For the organization

The enterprise account gives every executive and manager in the organization the tool, for enterprise use and collaboration. Replace certain systems with it, or augment the ones you keep.

If you're the decision maker, or can get this to one, and you like it, you can simply buy the enterprise subscription. Same walk, same model, more people on it.

The platform

One system, three modules.

Performix has many parts — but they group into three. Each is built to work as one for Performix, and each is strong enough to stand on its own.

01The interface

See what is most likely holding the team back.

For sales quota attainment, the signed-out model leads with the condition most likely holding the team back. It shows an $80k–$140k/yr opportunity range, ±30%, labelled “research priors + your estimates · not measured yet,” then ranks the three measurements that would add the most information. Each driver shows its evidence grade and research correlation beside the estimate.

  • Per-user insight lists — the algorithm ranks what matters for you
02The built-in science

Inspect the research behind the answer.

Open an outcome model without an account to see the drivers and the evidence grade for each relationship. Download the same model as CSV for closer analysis. The grade stays with the specific link, so stronger and weaker findings do not collapse into a blanket claim that every driver is equally certain.

  • The metrics library
  • Peer-reviewed research substrate
  • Pre-built analyses, ready to run
03The data pipeline

Measure the conditions around the work.

The team measurement asks about capability, alignment, motivation and support around the work. It uses those answers to narrow down which condition is holding the team back. Results stay at team level, without watching employees or assigning individual scores.

Some organizations engage Performix as a tool. Others engage the practice that built it — to run the diagnostic with you, interpret the result, and design the intervention. See the consulting engagement shape →
