Impact on mobile

What Impact on mobile shows

Impact is where Verinode answers the only question that matters after you have been using it for a while: what did this actually do for my business. The mobile Impact view is a read-only mirror of the web Impact section, built for a quick check between jobs rather than a deep working session. It shows your ROI window (decisions acted on, dollars realized, IQ work done, time on the platform), the goals you are working toward, and a recent-decisions list. The deeper Decisions, Dollars, and Activity tabs that web offers stay on web for now; mobile hands off to them with a link rather than trying to cram them into a phone screen.

Nothing on this page is Verinode deciding anything for you. It is a record of what you did with what IQ surfaced, and what you told IQ you are chasing.

Where to find it

Open the Business menu on mobile and tap Impact, under the Intelligence group alongside Benchmarks, Margin, and Forecasting. The route is /m/business/impact. This mirrors the web sidebar entry at /impact.

If Impact has not been switched on for your account yet, you will see a Switch on Impact panel instead of the page content, described under Empty states below.

The ROI window and the time filter

At the top of the page, a line of context sets the frame: "Your ROI window: decisions acted, dollars realized, IQ work done, time on platform." Everything below that line is scoped to whatever time window you pick.

Four pills let you switch the window, and the active one is filled in copper:

• This month (the default)
• Last 30 days
• Year to date
• All time

Switching windows is a real navigation (the pill is a link to /m/business/impact?window=...), so the numbers below always reflect a fresh read for that range, and the window survives if you get deep-linked here from web.

Goals: what you are working toward

Right under the window picker is the Goals block. This is a real, working surface on mobile, not a link-out. It has four parts, and you will not necessarily see all of them at once.

An active goal

If you have a live goal, it shows as a card with the goal's label (for example "Net Profit Margin"), a status pill, a big target number, and a line under it reading either "now [your current value]" (if IQ has a measured reading), "from [your starting value]" (before a current reading exists), or simply "your goal." When there is a measured current value, a thin progress bar underneath fills toward the target.

If a goal is still waiting on the data that would track it, the status pill reads Waiting on data styling instead of the green "on track" tone, and a line explains what would light it up, with a link (styled in copper) to go connect that data source.

Two controls sit on every active, unachieved goal:

• Adjust target opens a stepper (minus / current value / plus buttons) so you can raise or lower the bar. Tap Save target to commit or Cancel to back out. The stepper will not let you land on a target you have already met, so you cannot accidentally set a goal that fires a hollow celebration the moment you save it.
• Retire this goal drops the goal and returns its metric to "Set goal" in Browse below, in case you want to pick a different target or come back to it later.

Goal Achieved (celebration)

When a goal is hit, the active-goal card is replaced with a Goal Achieved panel in green, reading "Your [goal name, lowercased] reached [value]. Look what you built." A Continue button acknowledges it and clears the celebration on your next visit. Below that, two optional, separate actions:

• Share this win with a peer generates a referral link you can copy and send. Once generated, the link sits in the card with a Copy button next to it.
• Happy for Verinode to feature your story? opts you into being considered for a customer story. Verinode reaches out and asks before featuring anything; the panel confirms this in a follow-up line once you tap it.

Neither action is required to dismiss the celebration; Continue does that on its own.

Your Next Goal / Goal IQ Suggests

If IQ has a metric it thinks is worth chasing next, a teal-bordered proposal card appears. It reads "Goal IQ Suggests" if you have no active goals yet, or "Your Next Goal" if you already have one running. It shows a plain-language headline (for example, framing where you stand against peers on that metric) and a stepper to adjust the proposed target before you commit. Tap Set this goal to accept it. Under the button, a one-line honest reason for why connecting more data matters here, and below that: "IQ recommends. You decide." That line is not decorative. IQ never sets the goal for you; every proposal waits for you to confirm the number and press the button.

Set a goal (Browse)

Below any active goal and proposal is the full catalog: "Every number a restoration owner watches. Set the ones your data tracks today. The rest light up as that data flows in." Metrics are grouped under COO-vocabulary headings (for example, profitability or cash-velocity groupings) and listed one per row.

Each row shows:

• The metric's plain-noun label.
• Under it, either a data line or a status. If the metric is measurable from your data today, you will see up to two facts separated by a dot: "You: [your current value]" and either "Typical: [value]" (a market reference from published research, not your own network) or "Peers: [value]" (a genuine reading from your own peer group). If peer numbers are locked (for example, before your data is contributing to the network), the line reads "Peers unlock when your data contributes" instead of showing a number. If the metric is not measurable from your data yet, the row shows the honest data ask instead (what to connect to start tracking it).
• On the right: Set goal if nothing is live on that metric yet, Active if a goal on it is already running, or Achieved in green if you already hit it.

Tapping Set goal on a derivable row sets it immediately with a sensible default target. If the row has no default (no anchor to seed a number from), an input appears so you can type Your target and tap Set (or Cancel). If you try to set a goal you are already ahead on, the row shows "You're already ahead here. Nice." instead of setting anything.

History

A collapsed History row at the bottom of the Goals block shows a count of past goals. Tap it to expand a list of every goal that was achieved or retired, each with its label, its target ("Target was...") or what it reached ("Reached..."), and a status label. It only appears at all once you have at least one goal in your history; it is invisible before that.

Decisions in window (the hero metric)

Under Goals, the headline number for the window: Decisions in window. The large figure is how many decisions you acted on, followed by the action rate as a percentage: "acted · [X]% rate." The action rate is acted decisions divided by decisions surfaced in the window.

A line underneath breaks out the rest of the funnel: how many decisions were surfaced, how many were parked, and how many were ignored in the same window. Surfaced decisions are everything IQ raised in the window; acted, parked, and ignored are the three ways you resolved them (parked ones are saved for later, not dropped).

The six stat figures

Below the hero number, a two-column grid of six figures for the window:

• Hard recoverable, in green: dollars from acted decisions classified as hard, meaning realized or reliably recoverable value, not an estimate. Hard and soft dollars are never summed together, on purpose. A dollar figure Verinode is confident in is a different kind of number from one that is still conditional, and blending them would misstate both.
• Soft conditional: dollars from acted decisions classified as soft, meaning the value is conditional on something still playing out (an approval, a collection, a future outcome).
• IQ commands: how many times you initiated a conversation with IQ in the window. This counts commands you started, not IQ's own background surfacing.
• IUs spent: Intelligence Units consumed by AI work you asked for in the window.
• Documents added: how many documents landed in your vault in the window, from forwarding, upload, or connected ingestion.
• Surveys responded: responses received over surveys sent in the window, shown as "responded / sent."

Utilization

Below the stat grid, a single callout line reads your utilization for the window: Strong utilization, Steady, or Underutilized, colored green, teal, or yellow respectively, followed by your time on platform for the window (shown in hours once you cross 60 minutes, otherwise in minutes). This is a heuristic Verinode uses internally to gauge how much of the platform you are actually using in a given window, blending your action rate and your time on platform. It is a read on engagement, not a score of your business.

Recent decisions

Under the utilization line, up to 30 of the most recent decisions in the window appear as a flat list under the heading Recent decisions. Each row shows:

• A status dot (green for Acted, teal for Saved, dim gray for Ignored) and the decision's title.
• A meta line: the status label, how long ago it happened (for example "3 days ago"), and, if the decision carried a dollar value, that amount labeled hard (green) or soft (neutral), matching the same hard/soft distinction as the stat grid above.

This list is read-only on mobile; there is no drill-in here. Tapping into the full detail on any one decision is a web action for now.

Handing off to web

At the bottom of the page, a link reads "Open the full Impact surface on web →", pointing to /impact, with a note underneath: "The web view adds the Dollars + Activity tabs and per-decision drill-ins." Use this when you want to dig past the headline numbers, for example to review the full decisions ledger, the dollars breakdown over time, or your activity history in depth.

Empty states

Section not switched on. If Impact has not been activated for your account, the page shows a "Switch on Impact" panel instead of content: "What your data contributions earn back for you," with a Switch on Impact button. One tap turns it on and the real page renders in its place. Nothing is switched on until you say so.

No decisions in the window. If there are no decisions in the selected window, the recent-decisions list is replaced with: "No decisions in this window yet. Acted decisions will appear here as IQ surfaces patterns and you act on them." Try a wider window (Last 30 days, Year to date, or All time) if you expect activity that a shorter window is missing.

No goals set yet. If you have no active goals, the Goals block simply skips straight to whatever IQ is proposing (if anything) and the full Browse catalog, so there is always a way in even with a clean slate.

Browse still loading. While the goal catalog is being fetched, its rows show a soft pulsing placeholder rather than a blank gap.

No history yet. The History row is not shown at all until you have at least one goal that has been achieved or retired.

How to use it well

1. 1Start with the window picker. Pick the range that matches the question you are actually asking (This month for a weekly check-in, Year to date for a board or partner conversation).
2. 2Read Decisions in window and the action rate first. A high surfaced count with a low action rate is a signal you are leaving IQ's work on the table, not that IQ is doing too much.
3. 3Check Hard recoverable before Soft conditional. Hard is the number you can plan around today.
4. 4Glance at Goals. If something is Waiting on data, follow its connect link rather than letting it sit static.
5. 5Use "Open the full Impact surface on web" whenever you need the Dollars or Activity tabs, or want to open a specific decision.
