You

The board wants to know why the launch moved. What happened?

The launch moved twice. Mar 14 — held for the security review decided by Sara · Slack #launch. Apr 2 — vendor delivery slipped three weeks email · Acme. Both on the timeline, with sources.Want the board-ready version? It’s drafted — waiting in your queue.
Who this is for

Built for people who are accountable for outcomes.

You do the work, and you answer for it. You shouldn’t have to choose between running the business and knowing the business.

The problem

The answers exist. They just live in five different places.

Your funder comes back with questions. You spend two days digging for answers you know exist.

“Can you free someone up for this?” — “I’ll have to get back to you.”

Every status update means interrupting the people doing the work.

A key person leaves, and what they knew leaves with them.

19%

of payroll goes to reporting and status, not the work.

2.5 hrs

per person per day searching for information that already exists.

42%

of what people know walks out the door when they do.

What project-state is

Operational memory for your organization.

project-state connects to the tools your team already uses — Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, GitHub — and builds the record automatically: decisions, milestones, risks, documents, commitments.

Nobody on your team fills anything in. They keep working the way they already work.

A dashboard shows what someone typed in. project-state remembers what actually happened — and can prove it.

Collects

Pulls the record from email, documents, chat, and code as the work happens.

Analyzes

Links decisions to sources, commitments to owners, risks to dates.

Reports

Builds the weekly report, the board pack, the funder answer — from the record, not from your team’s evenings.

Queues

Flags what’s missing, what’s slipping, and what’s waiting on whom.

This is the whole product. Ask. Get the answer. Check the sources.

Outcomes

What changes for you.

Answer board and funder questions the same day, with sources.

Do the reporting you owe without interrupting your team.

See where the organization is losing time before it costs you.

Keep what people know inside the company, even when they leave.

What it will never do
A person always sends.

Every email, report, and post stops and waits for your approval. Nothing goes out on its own.

Every answer shows its source.

You can click through to the original email, document, or message. If it cannot show you, it does not claim it.

Your data stays yours.

Export everything, any time. Run it in the cloud, on your own servers, or on your own machine.

The pilot

Start with one project. Six weeks.

Give us one important project. In six weeks, project-state builds a reliable record of it, answers hard questions with sources, and cuts the work of keeping leadership informed. We agree on three success measures before we start. In week six, you review the results.

Three measures, one of each kind — speed (how fast a hard question gets a sourced answer), effort (hours to produce what you owe), risk (what surfaced that you would have found late). Baselined in week one, measured again in week six.
