Introducing AlignAIQ & the MOP System
An AI-Powered Chief of Staff for Your Leadership Team
We’re happy to announce something we’ve been working on quietly for the past eight months: AlignAIQ – software that turns the proven MOP System™ (“Measures of Performance”) into an AI-powered chief of staff for leadership teams.
If you’ve followed our conversations on the NewPrism channel, you know we care a lot about one thing: helping management teams stay aligned, focused, and accountable as companies grow. AlignAIQ is putting that operating system into software, and then elevating it with AI so every leader on your team can work smarter, not just harder.
AlignAIQ is now available, but we’ve created a waitlist to streamline initial company onboarding.
Why we built AlignAIQ
Over the years, we’ve used the MOP System with companies ranging from early-stage startups to billion-dollar public companies. The pattern is always the same:
Early teams stay aligned because everyone is in the same room, on the same mission, moving fast.
As the company matures, that environment breaks down.
New leaders join, priorities drift, and old goals quietly linger in the background.
At that point, it becomes much harder for a CEO and leadership team to answer basic questions with confidence:
What are our true top priorities right now?
What is each department actually working toward?
Where are the cross-department dependencies that could derail our goals?
AlignAIQ exists to make those answers visible, measurable, and actionable.
The foundation: MOPs and the MOP System™
At the core of AlignAIQ are MOPs – Measures of Performance.
The CEO and executive team set a small number of clear, company-level MOPs that define what success looks like for a given program (for example, the fiscal year).
Each department then creates aligned Department MOPs that directly support those company-level objectives.
Instead of long, vague goal documents, you get:
A concise set of company MOPs that everyone can see and understand
Department MOPs that are explicitly tied back to those company goals
Simple, structured updates that show progress over time
AlignAIQ also includes an AI MOP Writer that helps leaders write clear, measurable goals. It guides them toward specificity, good metrics, and realistic targets—so every MOP is something you can actually track and manage, not just a slogan on a slide.
The Problems AlignAIQ Solves
As companies scale, three issues consistently get in the way of effective execution: alignment, interdepartmental accountability, and AI that actually understands your business context.
Alignment as you grow: Early on, everyone is in the same room and on the same page—but as new leaders join and priorities evolve, that shared clarity drifts. AlignAIQ gives you a structured view of top company objectives and aligned department MOPs, with simple updates that keep everyone focused on what matters most.
Interdepartmental accountability: No team hits its goals alone, yet critical dependencies between functions are usually vague or buried in emails and slide decks. AlignAIQ ties explicit dependencies to specific MOPs, so departments can clearly state what they need from each other and negotiate expectations in the open.
“AI in context,” not boilerplate: Most AI tools return generic advice because they don’t have your real goals, metrics, or constraints. AlignAIQ uses a prompting engine that securely layers your actual company context and MOPs into every interaction, so when a manager asks, “How do I get this MOP back on track?” the guidance is tailored, practical, and immediately actionable.
What you get with AlignAIQ
In practical terms, AlignAIQ gives your leadership team:
An operating system that keeps everyone focused on the most important objectives
A clear structure for defining and aligning Company and Department MOPs
Visibility into cross-department dependencies and potential friction points
Context-aware AI assistance for every manager, anchored in your real goals and plans
If you’re a CEO, COO, CFO, or department leader who wants fewer status meetings, clearer priorities, and more accountable execution, this is built for you.
