I wish I had this when I was running my last startup and we expanded from 7 to 25 employees in two months. It's the perfect tool for team leaders to bring structure to their direct reports. Too many managers focus only on output and forget the human side of management. Lighthouse shines a light on what matters for thoughtful managers and productive teams.

I agree with a lot of the sentiment here, that Id on't actually understand what the product DOES. I think the website would massively benefit from some screenshots and feature highlights. I'm not going to sign up for a trial of something that I don't understand what it does. The problem is a compelling one though.

Congrats on the launch guys! I've been using Lighthouse for over a year, and it has changed the way I do things. Allowing me to be a decent manager, and contribute individually at the same time.
