Hands-on findings
Evaluated by Sten Pittet, Co-founder and CEO, Tability. Evaluator employed by a competing vendor, Tability.
One 30-minute exploratory session on the named plan using a shared sales scenario. Tasks varied with access and time. This is not a reliability, security, support-quality, or long-term adoption study. Capabilities not found in the session may exist in other plans or workflows.
Shared fictional sales-pipeline scenario, Q3 2026. The tasks actually attempted and any access limitations are recorded below; the AI prompts were not run identically across products.
OKRs Tool starts strong. Right at onboarding it offered to draft my goals with AI, I pasted my test scenario, and the objective and three key results appeared with sensible targets. Then the cracks showed: every start value had been imported as zero, and when I corrected them, my edits saved but the app kept showing the old numbers. One key result ended up reading 100% ahead of pace because of an inverted baseline.
A lot of product, not enough polish
Like Profit.co, this platform is trying to do a lot – coverage maps, 360 reviews, engagement, one-on-ones, a long side nav to hold it all – and the app is noticeably slower than the other tools I have tested. The UI has improved over the previous version I had seen, but there is no individual panel for a key result: you edit everything through the objective, and there is no per-key-result page to track progress week by week – where a tool like Tability makes the key result a full page with its own graph. Metric formats are limited to number, percentage, and yes-no, so a unit like dollars per user per month lives in the title. Check-ins work and there is a history view, but progress is a bar, not a trend – you could sit at 60% for weeks, stagnating, and the bar would never tell you.
Reporting everywhere, results sometimes
The reporting effort is real: trends, insights, a risk view, an executive report, auto-generated monthly and quarterly business reviews, a momentum map, and an in-app present mode with pace indicators. That is more pre-made reporting than any tool in this benchmark so far. But during my session several of these reports just kept spinning and never produced results, and the depth you can dig into is limited once they do load.
The AI Coach looked at three key results and saw none
The built-in AI Coach eventually loaded and I asked it what to focus on this week. Its answer: my objective had no key results defined, and that was my most urgent problem. It had three. An AI feature that cannot see your data is worse than no AI feature, because it produces confident advice built on a wrong premise. Grounding is a solved problem elsewhere in this field – Tability's key-result-scoped AI mode and Rhythms' assistant both read the workspace correctly in our tests. On the bright side, the MCP connector for Claude and other assistants is included free on every plan with OAuth sign-in – but the REST API needs a paid add-on, and there are no data connectors, so every key result gets updated by hand. Task links to Jira, ClickUp, Asana, Linear, and Notion sync one way, once a day.
OKRs Tool is a promising platform that is trying to do too much at once, and it can feel slow and rough while it gets there. The free tier and the flat fee make it one of the cheapest ways into OKRs, and for a small team on a tight budget that is a real argument. On this test I would place it under Perdoo, Profit.co, and Mooncamp – try it for the price, but test the bugs I hit before rolling it out.
Finding by finding
AI drafting
AI drafting set up our OKRs in minutes – with the wrong baselines.
- The onboarding AI parsed our pasted scenario into the objective and three key results with suggested targets.
- Every start value was imported as zero instead of 40, 12%, and 18 hours.
- One key result showed 100% ahead of pace purely because of its inverted baseline.
Core OKRs
Goal editing fought back – changes saved but didn't show up.
- Corrections to the imported start values saved but the interface kept showing the old numbers, so the fix could not be confirmed in the session.
- There is no individual key result panel – everything is edited from the objective, with no per-key-result page or week-by-week progress chart.
- Metric formats are limited to number, percentage, and yes-no, so custom units end up in the title.
- The app responded noticeably more slowly than the other tools in this benchmark.
Check-ins
Check-ins work, but progress is a bar, not a trend.
- The weekly check-in form takes a value and a comment, and a history view records updates.
- There is no trend chart on a key result – a progress bar can sit at 60% for weeks while things stagnate.
- We could not find a way to configure check-in reminders.
Reporting
More pre-made reports than any tool tested so far – and several never finished loading.
- Trends, insights, a risk view, an executive report, auto-generated monthly and quarterly business reviews, a momentum map, and a team overview all ship out of the box.
- An in-app present mode runs fullscreen with behind-pace and ahead-of-pace indicators.
- Several reports kept spinning without producing results during the session.
AI Coach
The AI Coach told us our objective had no key results – while it had three.
- Asked what to focus on this week, the coach answered that the objective had no key results defined and built its whole plan on that error.
- The coach also failed to load at first, spinning alongside the reports.
- An AI mode is available on objectives as well.
Integrations & MCP
MCP is included free – but with no data connectors, every key result is updated by hand.
- Claude and any MCP-compatible assistant connect free on all plans, signing in with OAuth.
- Slack and Microsoft Teams are available, and Jira, ClickUp, Asana, Linear, and Notion links sync one way, once daily.
- The REST API requires a paid add-on.
- No connector feeds a key result from a data source, and refresh frequency is not configurable.
Teams & people
There are no per-person views, and team attachment took some figuring out.
- No dashboard or view exists for a specific individual's goals.
- Attaching the objective to a sales team was possible but not obvious – a team can be created from the goal itself.
- CSV and Excel import-export exist in the cycle settings.
