Astra Skills

Skills built around franchise value.

Start with the workflows that move the business: opening locations faster, lifting low performers, protecting standards, and scaling execution without more headcount.

01
Launch Radar

Open faster. Open predictably.

Astra watches every opening project end-to-end. The moment a location is likely to miss its open date, it diagnoses the bottleneck, drafts the next move, and routes it for approval. Every day a location opens late is delayed revenue.

What Astra does
  1. 01
    Detects schedule risk against your median open profile and historical slip patterns.
  2. 02
    Diagnoses the bottleneck: vendor, GC, permit, training, or pre-open marketing.
  3. 03
    Drafts the next move - a vendor nudge, a permit follow-up, a re-sequenced training plan.
  4. 04
    Routes for approval. Your launch lead approves or edits in one click.

Health & Diagnostics

Lift low performers before drift is chronic.

Astra evaluates every location every day across training, audits, reviews, conversion, refunds, and retention. The moment a location moves from Healthy to Watch, it builds the recovery plan and routes it to the right FBC. No more waiting for the quarterly review.

What Astra does
  1. 01
    Scores each location daily on a multi-factor health index calibrated to your network.
  2. 02
    Detects deviation from network and cluster medians before the score crosses Watch.
  3. 03
    Diagnoses the top contributing drivers - training drop, review spike, refund surge, retention dip.
  4. 04
    Drafts a recovery plan with specific coaching moves, routed to the FBC who owns the portfolio.

Growth Briefs

Every FBC conversation becomes a plan.

Before every FBC 1:1, Astra prepares a brief - what changed since the last conversation, what's overdue, three recommended coaching moves with sources, and an action plan the franchisee can preview. So nothing in the meeting is improvised, and nothing important gets missed.

What Astra does
  1. 01
    Aggregates signals across the franchisee's full portfolio - all Health, Launch, Brand, and Daily Radar outputs.
  2. 02
    Identifies the top three coaching moves based on impact and the franchisee's profile.
  3. 03
    Drafts the meeting agenda, talking points with sources, and a proposed action plan.
  4. 04
    Delivers the brief to the FBC the night before, and a pre-read to the franchisee 24 hours ahead.

Brand Standards

Catch drift before the audit finds it.

When the same audit failure shows up at four locations, the problem isn't the locations - it's the system. Astra finds repeating failures across your network and routes a system fix (SOP clarification, training update, vendor swap) to the right owner. Treat the system, not the symptom.

What Astra does
  1. 01
    Clusters audit failures and complaints across locations to find repeating patterns.
  2. 02
    Identifies the root cause - SOP ambiguity, training gap, vendor change, equipment issue.
  3. 03
    Drafts the corrective action: an SOP edit, a training module update, a vendor escalation.
  4. 04
    Routes to Compliance, Training, or Ops for approval. Tracks adoption across the network.

Daily Radar

Every morning, three decisions.

Astra reads every signal across every location before you open your laptop, then sends you the three decisions that matter today. Not 83 notifications. Three priorities with the evidence attached. Delivered to email or Slack by 8 AM local.

What Astra does
  1. 01
    Ingests every signal overnight - Health, Launch Radar, Brand Standards, and Briefs outputs.
  2. 02
    Ranks decisions by impact and decay - things that get harder if delayed go first.
  3. 03
    Compiles your top three with sources and the next action pre-drafted.
  4. 04
    Delivers at your daily start time, on the channel you prefer.

Ask Astra

Decisions, not dashboards.

Stop building dashboards no one opens. Ask anything across your network in plain English - and Astra answers with the data, the sources, and the next action. The question doesn't need to fit a pre-built report. The answer doesn't stop at a chart.

What Astra does
  1. 01
    Parses the question, including franchise context (cluster, role, portfolio scope).
  2. 02
    Pulls data from all connected systems - POS, leases, audits, training, reviews, calendars.
  3. 03
    Reasons over it with sources, comparisons to benchmarks, and a confidence note.
  4. 04
    Suggests the next action - and offers to draft it.
