Over the past few months, we surveyed 200 early-stage startup teams to understand how they're using OKRs in practice - what works, what breaks, and where the impact shows up.

Some standout takeaways:

- 68% said OKRs helped them reach $1M ARR faster - 39% saw measurable impact within 1–3 months - 89% wish they had started sooner - Most began using OKRs around the 6–10 person mark

The biggest benefits reported were improved alignment, faster decision-making, and easier weekly check-ins.

I’d love to compare notes with this community:

- How have OKRs helped (or hurt) your team? - What do you wish you’d known earlier? - Are there better alternatives for early-stage startups?

(Full report drops tomorrow. Previewing it here first).
