Numbers vs. people

Your numbers reveal the problem only when it's already too late.

Velocity, story points, deployment time, test coverage — they describe the output of work well. None of them explains why the pace suddenly drops.

Lagging indicators

They show the past

  • Story points say nothing about how tired people are.
  • Deployment frequency doesn't catch mounting overload.
  • Commit count doesn't tell real progress from spinning in place.
Leading signal

Shows the direction before it's too late

  • An earlier read on mounting overload and blockers.
  • A clear signal of whether the team knows where it's heading and why.
  • You check whether your decisions as a manager actually help the team.
How it works

Three steps. Under a minute. No sign-up for the team.

01

Start a session

You open a new measurement and record your own forecast of the team's mood.

02

The team votes

People open a confidential link — no passwords, accounts or email required.

03

You see the trend

The aggregated trend and vote distribution appear instantly on your dashboard.

Four pillars

Four questions. No text fields. One comparison.

We only ask whether this cycle is better, the same, or worse than the last. No 1–10 scales, no essays. When there's no average to hide behind, all that's left is a simple, directional answer.

ENERGY

Energy

Engagement and readiness to take on the next tasks in the current cycle.

FOCUS

Focus

Room for deep work without the chaos of meetings and constant direction changes.

PRESSURE

Pressure

Perceived load, pace and the pressure of shipping on time.

CLARITY

Clarity

Understanding of current priorities and confidence in why we're building the product.

Why this isn't just another survey

Three things others don't bring together.

Anonymity at the core

Voting without an account or email. The dashboard shows only the aggregated distribution — never who chose what.

A feedback loop for managers

Cycle by cycle you see whether your decisions as a manager help the team or hurt it — right away, not six months later.

Forecast module

Before you see the results, you record your own forecast. Over time you learn how accurately you read your team.

Who it's for

For people who lead a team and want to know more than the numbers tell.

Team leads & teams

An unbiased read before the retro

A quick read on team mood before a retrospective or planning — no sugar-coating.

Managers

Measurable proof of impact

Whether new processes and goals genuinely make work easier — or just add load.

Decision-makers

A confidential view of the org

A read on team mood without heavy software or multi-page HR forms.

Frequently asked questions

Before you create an account

How is this different from a satisfaction survey?

We don't ask "how satisfied are you" on a 1–10 scale. We ask about the direction of change versus the previous period — it's harder to game and shows a trend, not a single point.

With a small team, are votes really anonymous?

With very small teams the distribution of votes naturally carries more information. We design Lirota to limit this and flag when a team is small enough that results should be read with caution. We deliberately don't promise the impossible.

How long does it take my team?

Under a minute per person. One link, one pass, no login.

Who sees the results?

Only the session owner — and only in aggregated form. Individual answers can't be tied to a person.

Will it flood my people with emails?

No. No sign-up, no inboxes, no reminders. The team votes through a confidential link.

How much does it cost?

A leader account and the first measurements are free — no card and no commitment.
