Products

Products Built for Real Business Problems

Three Summit Labs products are live in production, each one solving a real operational problem we kept seeing across consulting engagements. Plus three more in active development.

Flagship

Summit Signal

Operational diagnostic for growing small and mid-sized businesses.

The problem

Most growing small and mid-sized businesses can tell something is leaking — margin, time, capacity — but they can't pinpoint where without a structured diagnostic.

The solution

A controlled operational diagnostic delivered as a productized service. Eight modules, concrete data requirements, AI-assisted narrative, human-reviewed findings, and a designed PDF report a CFO will forward.

Key features

  • Margin Leak Detection — Which pricing rules should change first, and which customers need a pricing conversation.
  • Quote-to-Cash Analysis — Whether the cash problem is sales conversion, invoice delay, customer terms, or collection discipline.
  • Working Capital Cycle — Which terms, collections, or inventory moves release cash without adding debt.
  • Customer Profitability & Burden — Which customers deserve retention investment, repricing, boundary-setting, or exit planning.
  • Process Friction Mapping — Which workflow constraint should be removed before buying another tool or hiring another coordinator.
  • Labor Productivity & Utilization — Whether the labor issue is capacity, scheduling, pricing, role design, or utilization discipline.
  • Operational Controls Review — Which controls reduce operational risk without slowing down the whole business.
  • Automation Opportunity Engine — Which automation should be built first, and which should wait because the upstream process is not ready.

Built for

Growing SMBs (10–100 employees) in packaging / manufacturing, contractors, and local B2B service firms — businesses scaling beyond the spreadsheet.

Client Check

Contractor intelligence and operations platform.

The problem

Contractors take on bad clients because vetting is gut-call. The tool stack is fragmented, payments slip, and disputes age out into write-offs.

The solution

A combined platform: client intelligence and pre-contract scoring built from reviews, public records, permit history, and lien data — paired with full job management, team coordination, invoicing, and Stripe-powered payments.

Key features

  • Client intelligence — scores, reviews, public-record signals, risk alerts, pre-contract checklists
  • Job management — scheduling, daily logs, change orders, resources, team coordination
  • Invoicing, estimates, Stripe-powered payments, settlement portal for disputes
  • Built-in business assistant, dashboards, weekly summaries, network insights

Built for

General contractors, construction trades, and service businesses that need to qualify clients and run jobs end-to-end in one place.

Funder IQ

Grant diligence platform for foundations and grant-making teams.

The problem

Foundations and grant-making teams run diligence with a patchwork — IRS lookups, ProPublica, BMF data, and spreadsheets. Slow, inconsistent, hard to defend.

The solution

One workspace where a program officer pulls a first-pass dossier in minutes: standing, governance, financial narrative, risk synthesis, peer benchmarking. Every conclusion is source-traceable.

Key features

  • Auto-generated dossiers with executive summaries and financial narratives
  • Risk synthesis, forensic analysis, peer benchmarking
  • 990 parsing, document analysis, source-traceable evidence
  • Full grant workflow — review, decisions, awards, grantee portal, optional fund accounting

Built for

Private foundations, corporate philanthropy teams, donor-advised fund operators, and grant-makers running formal diligence.
