Dacard.ai is your decision sidekick. We measure your team across three frameworks, surface where you’re stuck, and stay with you cycle to cycle while you move.

​
Welcome to Dacard.ai

We’re a decision intelligence platform for product teams. We score your product across 27 dimensions in 6 functions, read those scores through three frameworks, and stay with you cycle after cycle to surface the next move and trace the receipts.

​
Who we built this for

Individual contributors

PMs, designers, and engineers who want to know where their team operates today and which move pays off next.

Product leaders

VPs and directors who need portfolio visibility, team benchmarks, and a defensible read for planning conversations.

Founders and CEOs

Founders who want investor-ready receipts, competitive position, and clarity on the biggest growth lever this quarter.

Developers

Engineers building integrations, automating workflows, or wiring scoring into their own surfaces via the API.

​
What we measure

We assess every product across 27 dimensions grouped into 6 functions.

Strategy

Market intelligence, decision quality, roadmap discipline, competitive positioning.

Design

Research and discovery, prototyping speed, experience design, design-dev handoff.

Development

Architecture and systems, spec and context quality, build vs buy, delivery velocity.

Operations

Customer signal synthesis, product analytics, data flywheel, feedback loop quality.

GTM

Positioning and messaging, launch execution, adoption and expansion, pricing and packaging.

Intelligence

Quality and experimentation, team orchestration, process iteration, cost and token economics.
We score each dimension 1-5 for a composite of 27-135 that maps to your stage on the maturity ladder.

​
Three frameworks, one read

Your score lives inside three frameworks that together tell you how to move.

Team Operations

27 dimensions across 6 functions. The capability read on your team.

Development Lifecycle

6 stages tracking how you specify, ship, and learn from a build.

Product Assessment

27 dimensions reading your product itself, not just the team behind it.

API quickstart

For developers who want to score products programmatically.
We crawl the public surface of your product (URL, marketing site, changelogs, public docs), pull adapter signal from any integrations you connect (GitHub, Linear, Slack, and others), and combine that with anything you teach DAC directly. Each dimension gets scored 1-5 against the rubric described in Scoring.
The three frameworks are the canonical Path C+ read on your team. Team Operations measures capability, Development Lifecycle measures how you ship, Product Assessment measures the product itself. Each one has its own per-framework stage names. The composite that runs across all three uses verb forms (React, Augment, Orchestrate, Lead, Compound). See Three frameworks for the full read.
DAC starts monitoring you. We watch your scores cycle to cycle, push coaching cards into your backlog when a move opens up, and trace every move you ship back to the score it changed. See Reports for the receipts you get.
