Diagnostic intelligence for Founders and Boardroom Leaders
LetNumbersTalk elevates the operating figures already sitting in your ledgers into an institutional reading of enterprise condition: 54 sector-calibrated metrics, resolved through 7 independently weighted scoring engines, into pillar scores, an Integrated Business Health Score, value-chain attribution for every strained reading, and explicit terminal-risk disclosure on cash runway and revenue concentration.
Decision intelligence held to the standard a board expects — assembled in a single sitting, open to every operator, and computed end to end inside your own browser.
Mandate
Reading against a sector-calibrated corridor
7 independent scoring engines convert your operating figures into pillar scores, then into a single Integrated Business Health Score under a fixed weighting — Financial Health 22%, Risk 20%, Market 18%, Operations 15%, Strategy 13%, Organisation 7%, Technology 5%.
Every threshold is re-based against 1 of 5 industry profiles. A services practice is read against services economics, and a manufacturer against manufacturing economics, so each comparison holds.
Where a reading breaches its healthy band, the instrument names the location in the value chain, the factors that commonly contribute, and how the pattern presents in practice — diagnostic language throughout.
Cash runway and customer concentration are monitored as terminal indicators. A breach raises a distinct Caution disclosure in the integrated report, while scores generate in full alongside it.
Structure
Each pillar carries an independent scoring engine and a fixed share of the composite. Assess 1, several, or all 7 — partial coverage re-weights across exactly the metrics you supply, so every figure you enter carries its full influence.

Figures transmitted or retained
Every input is sourced from a named artefact — Profit and Loss statement, Stripe or QuickBooks ledger, CRM pipeline, operations log — so the diagnosis rests on instrumented figures.
Where a reading falls outside its healthy range, you get where in the value chain it originates, what commonly contributes, and how it presents in practice — observation stated plainly.
Open the instrument and begin. Every figure is held in session memory and discarded the moment the tab closes.
