Great leadership should be easier.
The science of high performance shouldn't live in a manager's memory. Factor builds it into how work happens, so every leader has the tools to lead well.
About us
We build organizations designed to improve. Forever.
Turn every cycle of work into compounding organizational intelligence.
The mismatch
The world no longer moves at the speed of an annual plan or quarterly review.
Most organizations' systems haven't kept up. The work changes continuously; the systems meant to manage it change four times a year. Everything in between is decided on information that has already moved on.
- The management cadence
- 4 planning moments a year
- How fast the work actually changes
- Constantly, and it does not wait
What changed
AI makes it possible to manage at the speed of the work.
Instead of waiting for the next planning cycle or review, organizations can learn from the work as it happens — and carry that intelligence into what happens next.
What we believe
Our principles
How we work
How work turns into intelligence that compounds.
Every cycle of work creates learning. Factor captures what worked, what didn't, and what changed — then carries that intelligence into what happens next.
The next cycle starts smarter. Then it happens again.

Research
Keep extending the science.
Research on motivation, performance, organizations, and how people and AI work better together.
The science
We started by asking what actually makes people perform at their best.
That research became the New York Times bestseller Primed to Perform and the science of Total Motivation. Today, we're applying and extending that work to understand how people, organizations, and AI perform together.
