Decision-ready reports and presentations
Build the report your decision-makers see, not the spreadsheet no one reads.
SectorPrompts is a reporting tool for people who present numbers but aren't full-time analysts. For a board, a committee, a regulator, a council, or a client. Public sector or private.

From a published sample
1≥ 12 had their targets lowered for the year and still missed them, stated by neither the agency nor the regulator. Our sample report computed that figure from the three counts the regulator did publish, and shows the arithmetic. Open the sample

Standard KPIs
These are the standard KPIs for this industry. When you build a report, the questions you answer shape which of them it covers.
Your finished report or deck
A KPI framework generated for your exact situation. Your figures where you give them, our labeled estimates where you don't, and every number traceable to one or the other.

The Postal Service lowered 19 delivery targets. At least 12 were missed anyway, a number nobody published.
The Postal Regulatory Commission's FY2025 determination publishes three counts: 27 products assessed, 20 failed their targets, 19 had targets lowered for the year. Two sets of 19 and 20 drawn from 27 must overlap by at least 12: so at least 12 products had their targets reduced and missed them anyway, a figure neither the agency nor its regulator states. We entered the published counts and the Postal Service's own 10-K financials, and the report computed that number, labeled it, and showed the arithmetic. Anyone can check it on paper in ten seconds. Our figures aren't written to sound right. They're computed, and you can check every one.

Suggested KPIs
- Contract burn rate: spend pace against the contract term and value.
- SLA performance: share of service levels met.
- Cost per service transaction: efficiency of delivering a unit of public service.
- Backlog / cycle time: how long requests take and how many are waiting.
- Budget utilization: spend against appropriation, on pace or not.
- Service quality / satisfaction: whether the public is actually served well.

Suggested KPIs
- Scope 1, 2 & 3 emissions: direct, energy, and value-chain carbon; the baseline of any credible disclosure.
- Emissions intensity: carbon per unit of output or revenue; lets a board compare year over year.
- Energy intensity: energy per unit of output; ties environmental performance to cost.
- Reduction vs. target: progress against a stated commitment; what turns a metric into a KPI.
- Water and waste metrics: consumption and diversion rates; material for many disclosure frameworks.
- Framework alignment: coverage against the standard that binds you (CSRD, IFRS, SASB, GRI); keeps it audit-ready.

Suggested KPIs
- LTV:CAC ratio: lifetime gross profit per dollar of acquisition; the most-cited health metric (3:1 is the benchmark).
- Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC): fully loaded cost to win one customer.
- CAC payback period: months to recover acquisition cost; under 18 is healthy.
- Gross margin: profit kept after delivering the product; anchors real unit economics.
- Contribution margin: revenue minus variable cost per unit; what actually covers overhead.
- Break-even point: the volume or date where revenue covers fixed and variable cost.

Suggested KPIs
- Funding drawdown vs. schedule: how fast allocated funds are spent against plan.
- Milestone completion rate: share of milestones hit on time; a delivery-health signal.
- Budget variance: committed and spent versus appropriated.
- Obligation rate: funds committed against funds available; watched closely in public programs.
- Cost-to-complete forecast: remaining spend to finish the program.
- Grant / match compliance: whether matching and use-of-funds conditions are met.

Suggested KPIs
- Learning funnel conversion: how many move from interest to enrolled to completed.
- Completion / graduation rate: share who finish the program.
- Certification pass rate: share achieving the credential; the outcome funders pay for.
- Job placement rate: share placed in relevant roles after completion.
- Cost per completion: program spend divided by successful completers.
- Learner satisfaction / retention: whether participants stay and would recommend.

Suggested KPIs
- Message reach: how many of the intended audience were exposed.
- Engagement rate: share who acted on or interacted with the message.
- Stakeholder trust / sentiment: measured shift in how key audiences view leadership.
- Message resonance: whether the intended takeaway was actually received.
- Response / action rate: share who did the thing the message asked for.
- Channel effectiveness: which channels drove the outcome, so spend follows results.

Suggested KPIs
- Readmission rate: share readmitted within the window; a core quality and penalty metric.
- Patient outcome / recovery rate: whether care achieves the intended clinical result.
- Average length of stay: efficiency and cost signal per episode of care.
- Patient satisfaction (HCAHPS): experience scores tied to reimbursement.
- Cost per case / episode: spend to deliver a unit of care.
- Compliance / adverse event rate: safety and regulatory exposure.

- Program completion rate: share who finish the intervention.
- Time to case resolution: how long matters take to move through the system.
- Cost per participant / outcome: spend against results, not just activity.
- Program participation rate: reach into the eligible population.

Suggested KPIs
- Earned Value (EV): budgeted value of work actually completed.
- Cost Performance Index (CPI): cost efficiency against plan.

Already have a document going out under your name?
Want us to check your work?
Upload a finished document and we run the most skeptical review we can build against it: figures whose own stated components imply a different number, statements the document's own figures contradict, figures with no identifiable source, and leftover drafting artifacts. Every finding quotes your document so you can check it yourself, and the review tells you what it did and didn't examine. You see what the hardest reader in the room would find, before they do.
See what a review finds
Example findings from a quarterly business update. Figures illustrative.
Contradicted. The update states an operating margin of 18.9 percent, but the revenue and cost figures printed in the same document imply 17.6 percent. Both numbers are shown with where they appear, because an analyst will run this math in the first five minutes.
Inconsistent. Page 2 says customer churn fell for the second straight quarter; the churn rates printed on page 8 go up. Internal contradictions like this cost more credibility than the metric is worth.
Unsourced. A $2.1M savings figure appears in the summary with no source anywhere in the document: no calculation, no citation, nothing to point to when someone asks where it came from.
Coverage. Every review closes by stating what was read and how many calculations were checked, so a clean result means something.
Your first review is free. Reviews after that are $49 each.
Findings stay on your screen and in your library. Nothing is published or shared.
