For CEOs, COOs & leadership teams · 40+ people

Your goals get lost between priorities and meetings.
In a week, it runs on a system.

Nova is the operating system your company runs on — the four processes and structure that build the discipline to turn your goals and priorities into work the team actually executes, break the silos between departments, and give every team clarity on what matters. We install it, train your team live, and hand you the templates — in one week. Proven across 150+ companies.

You don't have a talent problem.
You have a structure problem.

Most leadership teams have the strategy and the people. What's missing is the structure that connects decisions to execution — month after month, without the founder in every room. Here's what that gap sounds like:

We keep revisiting decisions we thought were already made.

The same topic surfaces in three different meetings. Nothing holds the decision in place, so it quietly gets un-made.

Every cross-functional question routes through me.

You're the operating system. The team waits until you weigh in — in your calendar, your Slack at 9pm, your weekends.

This launch is slipping and I can't tell why.

Engineering says marketing isn't ready. Marketing says product hasn't shipped specs. The drift shows up six weeks too late.

No one seems to own this outcome.

Two teams assume the other has it. Senior people quietly step on each other. Ambiguity kills the momentum you're paying for.

Meetings every day, decisions made nowhere.

25 hours of meetings a week. The discussion happens. The decision doesn't. Then it happens again next week.

I can't take a week off without it all falling apart.

The company can't run without your daily presence — which means, on paper, it isn't really a company yet. It's a job you own.

The package

We don't hand you software and wish you luck. We install the operating system — with you.

Four processes, fully implemented in Nova, your team trained to run them, plus the implementation tips and the incentives playbook that align every department and make it stick. Done in a week.

We implement it

The four core processes set up inside Nova, configured to how your team actually runs. You start from a working system, not a blank page.

The templates are yours

Every process template — MBR, OKRs, priority meeting, function one-pager — handed over, ready to run on repeat. The methodology lives in the system, not one person's head.

We train your team live

A guided session that prepares your leaders to run the rituals with confidence — with the rules, the roles, and the facilitation each meeting needs to work.

The incentives playbook

A set of incentives that align every department behind the same commitments — your leadership team chooses which to implement. Proven across 100+ companies that have adopted at least one.

One week, start to running Kickoff to a leadership team running the system live — not a three-month change-management project.
See it working

Four templates. One live board. Your team, working together — with AI as a teammate.

Here's how companies run each of the four processes — live, mid-session, with the team working together and Nova AI in the room. Click through the four you'll have running by the end of the week.

How the function runs — its bets, its no's, and the rhythm that scales without the lead in the room.
The choices we're making

Bet on real-time fraud + AML infrastructure first. Best engineers on the core ledger & payments rail — not new market features.

What we're saying no to

No new card products until the ledger migration is done. No custom integrations for single enterprise clients this year.

The one capability we build once

A self-serve compliance event pipeline every team plugs into — built once by platform, used by Risk, Product & GTM all year.

Not everything is a whiteboard — the Business Review runs as a structured agenda, the priority meeting as a shared board. AI preps, drafts and spots patterns; your team decides.

What it gives your team

Your objectives become what your team actually does — every month.

This is what the four processes are for. Not more tooling — a clear line from the company's goals to what each person works on, with the visibility and discipline to keep it on track.

Objectives become monthly focus

Company objectives turn into the priorities each team focuses on this month — with the discipline and the resources to make real progress, not a goal doc nobody reopens.

Leadership sees across every department

Real visibility into what each team is working on — so leaders can adapt strategy and redirect effort while it still matters, not six weeks after the launch slipped.

Clear priorities, focused teams

Leaders give their people clarity on what matters most — so teams stay focused on the work that moves the objective, not the loudest request of the week.

Fewer meetings, more deep work

Teams find better ways to protect their time — cutting meetings and freeing space for the deep work where progress actually happens.

Cross-functional work that works

Handoffs, shared initiatives, and decisions between teams run on structure — so collaboration stops meaning endless back-and-forth.

Everyone knows who owns what

Each department's focus is clear and visible — the blurry, overlapping areas that quietly slow everything down get named, and closed.

What changes

Install the structure, and the company stops depending on you.

The same shifts show up every time a team runs these four processes on a rhythm. Not motivation. Not more meetings. Structure.

Before you ask

The honest answers.

Below 40, most teams still fit in the founder's head — informal alignment works. Past 40, the cost of missing structure compounds fast: decisions get re-made, launches slip, senior people step on each other. That's the exact moment this system pays for itself, which is why we focus it there.
No — Nova sits above them, not instead of them. Nova is your operations management system: it breaks the silos between departments, defines roles and responsibilities and the minimum path to success with clarity and ownership, and leads how collaboration and decisions actually happen. It puts AI to work as a coworker alongside your team — working automatically — and it holds the decisions, rituals, and habits that build real commitment and velocity. You'll still want a place for documents, a chat tool, and — if you use one — a project management tool. Nova connects the work above them; it doesn't rip any of it out.
That's exactly what the live training session, the implementation tips, the ready-to-use processes, and the incentives playbook are for. Rollouts fade when the rituals live in one person's willpower. These live in the structure — with owners, cadences, rules, and department-aligning incentives baked in — so they hold whether or not you're in the room.
The $3,000 covers the full install: implementation, every ready-to-use process, the live training session, the implementation tips, and the incentives playbook — delivered in a week and backed by our 30-day guarantee. It's founding-cohort pricing: we take a limited number of install weeks each month in exchange for a case study once you're running. If you continue on Nova afterward, the software is billed separately — and your first month is free.
Yes — because you're not building from scratch. The processes are pre-built and battle-tested; we configure them to your team, train your leaders, and hand them over. You leave the week running the system, then it compounds month over month.
Limited spots each month

Stop being the operating system.
Build one — this week.

Fully installed, your team trained, and guaranteed. If your company is over 40 people and ready to grow without you in every room, this is the decision that removes the reason it hasn't happened yet.
