Free·12 minutes·29 questions
No payment, no sales call, no account needed to read your report.
What you get
A score on six dimensions, and the one constraint holding you back.
29 questions, about twelve minutes. Your report is scored the moment you finish — no call, no waiting, nothing to pay.
01 — Commercial & Growth
Positioning, demand generation, customer acquisition cost, pricing, margin visibility and where profit actually leaks.
02 — Operations & Delivery
Capacity, process maturity, delivery consistency and management rhythm.
03 — Cash & Profitability
Cash conversion, debtor discipline, forecasting and whether working capital can fund the growth you want.
04 — People & Capability
Hiring speed, retention, bench depth and whether you have the capability to deliver the next stage of growth.
05 — Leadership & Governance
Founder dependency, decision rights, management cadence and succession readiness.
06 — Technology & AI
System fit, data quality, integration, governance and realistic AI use cases.
How it works
From first question to scored report in 12 minutes.
01 — Answer
29 questions across six short sections. Answer on instinct — estimates are fine, and you can move back and forth freely.
02 — Score
Your answers are scored across all six dimensions and the lowest-scoring dimension is named as your primary constraint.
03 — Read
Your written report appears the moment you finish, with the constraint explained and an unbiased recommendation on the next step.
04 — Keep it
Verify your email if you want the report saved to an account, emailed, shared or downloaded as a PDF. Nothing is required to read it.
Have rough figures to hand — turnover band, headcount and the bottleneck you would name today. Your progress is kept in this browser, so you can finish later.
Nuub OS
The same scoring model our executives work from.
Nuub OS scores your answers across all six dimensions, names the constraint and writes the report. It is the same model a paid engagement starts from, which is why the assessment is a genuine first step rather than a lead form.
Only anonymised scores feed sector benchmarks. Nothing you enter is sold, and no sales call is triggered by finishing.
Quality promise
- Every figure traces back to an answer you gave, or is clearly labelled as an estimate.
- The same answers always produce the same constraint — there is no sales logic in the scoring.
- Where your answers cannot support a conclusion, the report says so.
- The assessment recommends the honest next step, including telling you if you do not need us yet.

Want the constraint evidenced and quantified?
The Executive Business Review takes the same six dimensions further: a senior operator interviews your leadership team, examines the numbers and puts a figure on what the constraint is costing you.
