Interactive scorecard • Clear signal in minutes
Most business decisions fail for one reason: they were never clear to begin with.
The Binary Decision Scorecard forces clarity before commitment. It’s a filter that exposes false urgency, vanity projects, and hidden leverage.
What's Inside
A 7-question filter that scores any business decision across the dimensions that actually matter:
The 7 Binary Tests
- Does this create leverage (outsized output vs input)?
- Does this relieve the primary constraint in the business?
- Will the benefits compound over time?
- Does this build a moat or rent someone else's?
- Does this reduce dependency on people, vendors, or fragile processes?
- Will we get a clear signal in 30–60 days?
- Is this aligned with where the business is going (not where it's been)?
Scoring: 6–7 = Act decisively. 4–5 = Narrow or redesign. 0–3 = Do not proceed.
Who Uses This
Founders, operators, and executive teams who need to:
- ▸Prioritize initiatives when everything feels important
- ▸Evaluate AI, automation, and tooling decisions
- ▸Decide what to kill, delegate, or double down on
- ▸Separate real growth from cosmetic progress
