Meet Watchtower

One system that watches the metrics that lead your KPIs

Watchtower connects to the semantic layer you already run — Snowflake, Databricks, dbt — and builds a live map of how upstream behavior drives your headline numbers. When a signal is large enough, timely enough, and valuable enough, it explains why, recommends the next action, and routes it for approval.

Watchtower maps the upstream metrics that lead your headline KPI — so the alert fires while there is still time to act, not after the quarter closes.

The Outcome Ledger

Every recommendation graded — including the misses

Dashboards stop at what happened. Watchtower stays accountable for whether the action worked: each recommendation is recorded as a claim with its reason, expected effect, and actual result, then graded honestly so the loop improves over time.

What agentic analytics means

Detect, explain, prioritize, trigger, and measure

The work is not another dashboard. It is a governed operating loop that turns a signal into accountable action and tracks whether the action worked.

1

Detect

Monitor semantic KPIs and the upstream behavior that leads them for variance and precursor signals that are large enough, timely enough, and valuable enough to review, with seasonality-aware baselines so normal cycles are not mistaken for problems.

2

Explain

Surface drivers, evidence, and plain-language narratives so operators can understand why the signal matters.

3

Prioritize

Rank insights by impact, confidence, urgency, deadline risk, and whether an owner can act.

4

Trigger

Recommend next-best actions with approvals, policy context, accountable owners, and fallback paths.

5

Measure

Record every recommendation in the Outcome Ledger — reason, action, expected effect, and actual result, graded honestly — so the loop is accountable for whether the action moved the number and improves over time.

Productized offers

Clear ways to start without a vague AI roadmap

Start with a fixed-fee diagnostic, then move only when the workflow, data readiness, governance needs, and measurable outcome are clear.

Agentic Analytics Diagnostic

$3,500 to $7,500 fixed fee

A scoped starting point for identifying the first KPI, queue, or exception pattern where agentic analytics can create measurable movement.

Use cases

Initial workflows grounded in operational work

The right first use case has enough signal, enough value, and a clear owner group that can act.

B2B SaaS Revenue Retention

Net revenue retention erodes quietly — usage dips, champions leave, and expansion stalls long before a renewal is lost.

View Use Cases

Manufacturing Variance Watchtower

Plant and operations teams need earlier visibility into throughput, downtime, quality, or inventory drift.

View Use Cases

Logistics Delay Risk

Shipment exceptions and carrier variance compound before teams know which delays deserve action.

View Use Cases

Healthcare RCM Recovery Watchtower

Denials, underpayments, AR aging, and payer friction hide inside disconnected queues.

Why Thrash

A specialist in KPI-to-action systems

Thrash Analytics is built for teams that need senior judgment, fast focus, and governed operating loops.

More specific than broad AI consulting

The work starts with a KPI, queue, owner group, and decision loop instead of a generic AI roadmap.

More governed than automation shops

Recommendations carry evidence, approvals, policy context, fallback paths, and measurement from the start.

More operational than dashboards

The system anticipates problems with leading indicators, triggers accountable work, and records honest outcome grades in the Outcome Ledger — not only visualizing variance after it happens.
