The Problem
You run a business on Stripe, Shopify, or Gumroad. Every morning you open 3-4 tabs to check what happened overnight. That's 20-45 minutes before you make a single decision.
But the real cost isn't time. It's what you miss: 3 failed payments piling up since Tuesday. A churn spike you won't notice until MRR drops. $400 in refunds that signal a broken checkout flow. A monthly pacing miss you could fix on Day 18 but won't see until Day 30.
Your dashboards show data. Northstar surfaces what needs your attention.
