An early warning system for design projects.
FlowStatus connects to your design tools and automatically measures the operational signals behind the work, so you can spot a misfiring project while there is still time to fix it.
The problem
You can usually tell when a design project is misfiring. There are murmurs of scope creep and delays without a clear root cause, and frustrated teams ask for a reset and re-brief even though the work is well underway.
When deadlines are missed, design usually gets the blame, and when the project finally goes live the outcomes are underwhelming. The real culprits are often misaligned objectives, designers context-switching across too many projects, and long feedback loops. But proving that to stakeholders needs objective data that design leaders rarely have.
What it measures
Focus and context-switching
Spot fragmented focus before it affects outcomes.
Project cadence and momentum
Identify stalled initiatives while there is still time to intervene.
Iteration versus rework
See where healthy exploration ends and repeated late-stage changes begin.
No timesheets or manual surveys, just objective, always-on workflow analytics grounded in research into what affects outcomes. It gives design and product leaders a clearer view of what is happening inside their teams, and the evidence to have better conversations about it.
Teams with constant context-switching saw project success drop by a third.
FlowStatus measures the signals identified in our How Design Teams Work study: the leading indicators that show up long before the retrospective.
