About

With static dashboards, companies know what is happening in the business.

"Revenue is down 3% from last week."

But rarely, if ever, is there a clear path to a decision or an action.

This is the biggest gap in business intelligence that has fundamentally crippled companies from achieving proactive analytics capabilities.

We believe proactive analytics should be easier.

At Kater, we're committed to building a decision tree platform that captures your company's genius to define those paths to action. Through these ever-growing decision trees and a unified data model, you can now define what questions to ask, which hypotheses to verify, how to interpret the data, and finally know how to move forward after learning that revenue is down 3%.
