Overall benchmark score

Tability logo

An alternative to Envisio and Viva Goals (discontinued): Tability

Tability is an AI-native OKR platform built around a simple idea: the weekly check-in is the habit that keeps goals alive. Plans import from a paste of text, every key result gets its own page and progress graph, the dashboards leadership will ask for exist before you build anything, and the AI layer – an MCP server, scheduled reports, agents that can own a goal – comes wired in rather than bolted on.

On this benchmark it scores 4.5/5, against Envisio's 2.4 and Viva Goals (discontinued)'s 3.4 – measured with the same recorded 30-minute scenario as every tested platform, with the session evidence published. The widest gaps are on AI features, pricing transparency and ease of use. Neither platform outscores Tability on any of the seven criteria.

Tability also publishes its pricing – plans start at $6/user/month, where both Envisio and Viva Goals (discontinued) are quote-only.
