What's next for KPI Compass

What it does

Small teams usually do not need another dashboard; they need a defensible next step. KPI Compass accepts a familiar monthly sales export, calculates funnel and channel signals locally, then creates a bounded operations brief: the bottleneck, numeric evidence, a time-boxed experiment, and the uncertainty that must not be ignored.

The demo uses synthetic data. In live mode, the server sends only the computed report to GPT-5.6 with a tightly scoped JSON-output prompt. The no-key fallback is clearly labeled and remains reproducible.

How we built it

The deterministic KPI-reporting prototype existed before OpenAI Build Week. During the submission period, Codex extended it into a testable web product: a responsive UI, a server route, a bounded GPT-5.6 analysis path, and automated verification tests. The input/output contract stays explicit so a model response is not treated as a source of truth.

Why it matters

The output is intentionally small: bottleneck, evidence, experiment, and watchout. A team can move from a monthly export to one measurable next action without buying another dashboard. This also creates a practical path to a fixed-scope reporting-automation pilot for small businesses.

What to try

1. Open the repository README.
2. Run npm install && npm test.
3. Run npm start and open http://localhost:4173.
4. Load the sample CSV and click Analyze.
5. Inspect the channel evidence and copy the decision brief.
