Org-wide answers without a status meeting.
Org-wide answers without the org-wide status meeting.
Portfolio health at a glance, a heatmap of who is overloaded, the handful of metrics leadership actually asks for, and an AI-written executive summary of what moved, what stalled and what needs a decision.
Why it matters
Status meetings exist because the data is in six places.
Every Monday, someone spends two hours assembling a slide of red-amber-green boxes from six different tools, and by the time it's presented it's already wrong. The meeting exists to compensate for the fact that nobody can just look.
Because every project, ticket and standup in Tenon lives in one database, the org-wide view is a query, not a chore. The portfolio health table rolls up every project's status, progress and stuck-ticket count. The resource heatmap shows load per person across all their projects, the thing a single-project board can never tell you. C-suite metrics keep the headline numbers current.
On top of that sits the AI executive summary: a genuinely generated narrative from live data, with proper error handling if AI isn't configured. It reads like the update a good chief of staff would write, because it's built from the same facts they would use.

A Tuesday afternoon with Tenon
The Monday slide that nobody had to make.
Before the leadership call, Grace opens Insights. The portfolio table shows Data warehouse off track with nine stuck tickets; the heatmap shows Jordan at full load all week; he is on that project and two others. The executive summary says the same thing in plain English and suggests the mobile team has capacity.
She drops the summary into the meeting page as a card. The call takes fifteen minutes and ends with one decision: move Jordan's two smaller projects to the mobile team. She records it as a decision card. No slide was harmed.
Grace, COO, 120-person software company
Questions
Common questions.
Who can see workspace insights?
Insights is an admin-level view of the organization. Access is governed by roles and by the same row-level security policies as every other part of Tenon.
How is project health calculated?
From live ticket data: progress against scope, due-date slippage, and the number of stuck tickets (idle three or more days). No manual RAG status entry required, though you can override it.
Does the executive summary use AI?
Yes. It is generated by the configured AI provider from the same data shown in the tables. If AI is not configured it says so, instead of showing a fallback paragraph.
Can I export the numbers?
The data is in your own Postgres database, so any BI tool can read it directly; the REST API is expanding to expose the same aggregates.
