Product System

The operating model behind Canvasm — how strategy becomes impact and how groups become dashboards.

The Concepts describe the parts. This section describes the system — the two loops that make Canvasm an operating tool, not just a diagram:

   Strategy ──▶ Impact                Group ──▶ Dashboard
   actions/hypotheses                 audiences + access tags
        │                                   │
        ▼                                   ▼
   target / leading / guardrail        scoped operating views
   metrics, measured over a window     that respect visibility

The two loops

Strategy to impact

Link work to the metrics it should move, and trace the result.

Impact contracts

The measurable statement each bet carries — field by field.

Group to dashboard

Turn audiences and visibility into per-team operating views.

Evidence & governance

How notes, evidence, and access rules support the cadence.

Strategy-to-impact produces impact badges on dashboard metric widgets; group-to-dashboard decides which widgets each audience sees. Together they mean a team's review shows exactly the metrics they're allowed to see and the bets active on them.
