What you actually get

Insight

Your firm's numbers, explained.

Every month or quarter, you receive a performance report that goes beyond charts and tables. It explains what happened in your firm, why it happened, and what you should pay attention to next. Net revenue, overhead multiplier, WIP aging, project profitability - translated into plain English by your Business Performance Partner. No accounting jargon. No guesswork.

Partnership

A partner who understands how architecture firms operate.

Each reporting cycle, you sit down with your dedicated Business Performance Partner for a structured strategy session. Together, you review project margins, labor costs, overhead ratios, and agree on clear next actions. Think of it as CFO-level clarity without the CFO-level overhead - tailored to the way architecture practices actually run.

Action

Insight that leads to action.

Every session ends with a clear action plan tied to your firm's goals. Bill $42K in aged WIP within 14 days. Review fee proposals for projects below 2.5x multiplier. Evaluate staffing ratios before the next project phase. Actions are tracked in the Visory platform so nothing falls through the cracks. Over time, you build a record of decisions made, results achieved, and confidence gained.

Smarter workflows, human oversight.

Delphi is Visory's AI assistant. It works behind the scenes to streamline back-office workflows, surface risks and patterns, and flag exceptions before they become problems. WIP aging beyond 60 days? Delphi catches it. Overhead multiplier trending below target? Flagged before it impacts profitability. Your team works faster and more accurately - but every decision still has a human behind it.
