Know what changed. Act on what matters.

A monthly five-minute check-in that shows what changed, where pressure is building, and what deserves attention next.

The problem

A snapshot ages. A business does not stand still.

Most businesses have plenty of data and still cannot say what deserves attention this month. A one-off diagnostic answers the question once; the questions that actually run a business are recurring ones.

  • Month 1 52
  • Month 2 54
  • Month 3 53
  • Month 4 61
  • Month 5 66
  • Month 6 69
Business Standing, month by month. ILLUSTRATIVE — EXAMPLE DATA — a position only reads as good or bad against its own history.

How Pulse works

Set a baseline once. Then a few minutes, every month.

  1. 01Baseline

    Your Constraint Check becomes the starting position.

  2. 02Monthly signal

    Five to seven minutes of numbers you already keep.

  3. 03Movement

    Compared against your own history, not other businesses.

  4. 04Next decision

    Standing, direction and three priorities — or nothing this month.

Pulse does not repeat the full Constraint Check. Signals are chosen for your sector — commercial and growth, cash and profitability, operations and delivery, people and capability, leadership and governance, technology and ai.

Six months of one business, as Pulse would hold it.

Illustrative £4m precision engineering business, six months in. A synthetic example. Not a real business, and not a claimed result.

    Standing
    Watch
    Direction
    Not yet — no previous month

    Focus: Operations & Delivery. Operations and delivery scores lowest of the six, so that is where pressure sits this month.

    This is the first reading, so there is no previous month to compare it with. The trend begins next month.

  2. 02What changed

    The same six dimensions, month one against month six

    • Commercial & Growth72 to 78 — Less pressure, 6 points
    • Operations & Delivery41 to 66 — Less pressure, 25 points
    • Cash & Profitability58 to 50 — More pressure, 8 points
    • People & Capability55 to 58 — Less pressure, 3 points
    • Leadership & Governance62 to 70 — Less pressure, 8 points
    • Technology & AI48 to 52 — Less pressure, 4 points

    ILLUSTRATIVE — EXAMPLE DATA — Comparison period: Month 1 against Month 6. Both figures use the same six dimensions on the same nought-to-one-hundred scale, so the shapes can be compared directly. Higher means less pressure.

  5. 05What management decided

    1. Month 1

      Baseline set

      First Pulse submitted; nothing to compare yet.

    2. Month 3

      Recorded action: production sequencing reviewed

      Movement observed after this point.

    3. Month 5

      Recorded action: pre-dispatch check introduced

      Movement observed after this point.

    ILLUSTRATIVE — EXAMPLE DATA — recorded actions are context in time. Movement seen afterwards is not proof that an action caused it.
  6. 06What this suggests

    Delivery pressure has eased while cash has tightened. On the evidence supplied, attention moves from getting work out of the door to getting paid for it.

    1. 1.Hold the new dispatch check in place for a second full month before judging it
    2. 2.Put debtor days in front of the weekly meeting while the order book is growing
    3. 3.Agree a capacity ceiling before quoting the next two weeks

What you get

Five outputs, held month after month.

  • Monthly Pulse brief

    In your workspace, and as a branded PDF for the board.

  • Six-dimension operating picture

    Where pressure sits, month by month.

  • Quarter intelligence

    From month three: what the quarter shows.

  • Intervention history

    Actions you recorded, held against the movement that followed.

  • Year view

    From month twelve: what recurs, what shifted, what is new.

Plus workspace access, your full month-by-month history, and self-service subscription management.

Value builds over time

One month is a reading. Twelve is an operating picture.

  1. Month 1

    Where are we now?

    Baseline set. Pressure highest in operations. No trend yet, and the brief says so.

  2. Month 3

    What does the quarter show?

    A quarter view becomes available. Operations has held as the primary pressure.

  3. Month 6

    What has changed over time?

    Standing has risen from 52 to 69. Cash now scores lowest of the six dimensions.

  4. Month 12

    What is recurring, moving or newly emerging?

    The year view opens: what recurs, what has shifted, what is new.

Questions and boundaries

No consultant is involved each month, and that is the point.

A Nuub executive does not review your Pulse each month, and the subscription includes no executive time at either the founding or the standard £199 a month rate. If you want a person to interpret what you are seeing, that is a separate, priced piece of work you choose.

What Pulse gives you

  • Evidence from your own reported months
  • Movement, stated plainly
  • Three priorities, tracked until they close

What Pulse is not

  • Not a consulting retainer. No executive time is included or scheduled.
  • Not an audit. It reads what you report, not verified accounts.
  • Not real-time. Monthly movement, not live activity.
  • Not an integration. Nothing connects to your systems, and nothing needs to.
  • Not a benchmark. You are compared with your own prior position.
  • Not specialist advice. It does not replace financial, legal or tax advice.
