Market position report
See what your industry's records already say about your business.
Every report comes back with one specific finding and what it is worth in money. Not a dashboard, not a score out of ten, and not a list of things you already know. One finding, the evidence under it, and what we would do about it.
Free. No call, no card, nothing to install.
What these reports found
Real businesses, real numbers, none of it supplied by them
$49,000
A year of commission, lost while four comparable stores in the same city grew.
Drinks retailer, Portland$66.84
Extra cost per visit against comparable agencies, on $3.06m of losses. Visit mix did not explain it.
Home health, Florida$37.7m
Of federal work expiring inside eighteen months, 93% of it with a single customer.
Contractor, Tacoma46.9%
How far their market had shrunk while they read it as a sales problem.
Fundraising firm, ConnecticutWhat a finding looks like
The chart usually gets there before the paragraph does
Both are lifted from reports further down this page. Every figure in them comes from a public filing, and the report names which one.
Read the second line against the first Their clients fell. The market they sell into fell faster. Those two facts point at opposite conclusions, and only one of them is visible from inside the business.
Nothing here is a decline This firm was winning more work than ever. The problem was in a column of the same records that nobody totals up.
Proof
Businesses that had no idea this was public
Every one was built without asking the company for anything. Read any of them and the question that matters is not whether it is impressive. It is whether anyone inside that business already knew.
Radiant Plumbing, Air Conditioning & Electrical
What the report told them
You already own the highest-value product structure in your industry, and you run it at $9.99 a month with 5% off repairs and electrical left out, while the published benchmark is $14.95 to $29.95 with 15% off and all three trades in.
Whether a contractor is gaining or losing ground, from permits alone. No revenue figure is ever stated, because permits do not contain one.
Built from City building permits

What the report told them
Oregon owns the spirits on your shelf, sets their price, and pays you a fixed commission. So the one part of your business the public record measures in full is the one part where you have no pricing or margin decision to make.
What a fair comparison looks like. The peer group is built from a stated test, and the stores that failed it are named in the report.
Built from State liquor sales, per store, per month
Read the reportEvergreen Fire Alarms
What the report told them
You have won $197m of federal work since 2019 and you are still winning at the same rate. Three quarters of what is left on your books runs out within eighteen months, and 93% of it belongs to one customer.
That the useful question is often about what is ahead, not what is done. This one rebuilds the book of work still on the shelf, sorted by end date.
Built from Federal award records

What the report told them
You are paid more per visit than almost any comparable agency in Florida, and you still lost $3.06m. Every visit costs you $66.84 more than it costs them, and your mix of visits does not explain it.
The richest public record we have found anywhere. Medicare-billing agencies file a full profit and loss statement, so cost per visit compares directly.

What the report told them
Connecticut publishes what every solicitor contracts to return to the charity. Against the firms doing your work for your kind of client you contract 38.0% against a 26.0% median, and you run more campaigns than the firms above you put together.
Why the comparison group decides the answer. Two new clients in six years reads as a sales failure until you count how much the market shrank.

Read the reportHelloFresh SE, North America
What the report told them
In 2025 your North America business shrank on purpose and made more money for it. In the first quarter it shrank again and made 45% less. One line in your own quarterly statement shows what changed.
That a refusal can be wrong. The US business files nothing on its own. The Frankfurt parent must break out North America, and that segment is the target.

What the report told them
You hold Trane's top dealer designation, 1921 as a founding year and more than a thousand five-star reviews. You publish no membership programme, so the one asset in this trade that compounds has nothing to compound on.
That a second report in one industry finds a different story. This firm grew while its market shrank, which is the reverse of the Austin one.
Built from City building permits
Read the reportBenchmark Bank
What the report told them
Your latest quarter shows a return on assets of 0.83% after three full years above 1.3%. Every operating line in the same filing improved. The entire move is a $8,973k provision swing.
Banks file more than anyone. Every peer in the state is measurable on the same lines, so a gap in return on assets prices itself.
Built from Quarterly call reports
Read the reportHow it works
Three steps, and you only pay at the third one.
Step one
You give us a name, we do the rest
The business name and the city is all we need. We find the records your industry files, build the report and send it over. Nothing to install, nothing to sign, no call. If no public record covers you, we tell you that instead of padding something out.
FreeStep two
You send your actuals, we rebuild it
Public records show a great deal and they never show your costs. Send us your real numbers and we run the whole diagnosis again with them in place. This one is far deeper, and it is still free. Your data is the only thing we want for it.
FreeStep three
Deeper reports, when you want them
Different questions need different reports, and those are paid. Each one needs current data from you as well, so you are never buying a second copy of something you already have.
Paid
Industries
What we can see depends on what your industry files
Some industries file a full profit and loss statement. Some file only volume. The report is shaped by which one you are, so start with yours.
| If you are | The public record holds | Which answers |
|---|---|---|
| Home services | Every permit pulled, by you and by everyone near you | Are you gaining or losing ground, and in which trade |
| Home health | A full profit and loss statement, filed annually | Where your cost per visit sits against comparable agencies |
| Federal contracting | Every award, its value, its agency and its end date | How much of your book has to be rewon, and when |
| Drinks retail | Store level sales, month by month, in some states | Whether a decline is yours or the whole market's |
| Fundraising | Every campaign, its terms and what actually reached the charity | Whether your terms match what everyone else signs |

What stops a report like this from being confidently wrong
Every number names its source
Each figure is either pulled from a named record with the query kept beside it, or worked out from figures that were. Anything else refuses to publish. A number nobody can trace is treated as invented, because from where you sit it looks identical to one.
The comparison group is stated, not assumed
The first thing anyone says is that those are not my competitors. So the test used to build the group is printed, applied, and the companies it excluded are listed with the reason. In one of these the original finding died when that test was applied properly, and the report says so.
Most of the ideas get killed
Each report tests seven or more courses of action and publishes the ones it rejected along with the evidence that killed them. Exactly one recommendation is allowed to survive. The rejected list is the part that took the work.
Find out what your filings already say about you.
Tell us the business name and the city. If a public record covers your industry we build the report and send it. If one does not, we tell you that instead, which is the honest answer for a fair number of industries.
No call, no card, nothing to install.
