We are XLR8

We’re on a mission to empower companies and communities to achieve high performance at scale.

We help people and teams improve productivity, increase predictability, and drive revenue growth by increasing clarity from strategy to execution, confidence in the data used to make decisions, and decision-advantage with real-time data.

Guarantee decision-advantage and consistent high performance with XLR8.

Clarity. Confidence. Decision-Advantage.

Before starting XLR8, Kevin often found himself grappling with scattered information — data felt like it was everywhere—and he was constantly trying to piece together how his team, their work, and their organization were truly performing and adding value.

It was frustrating, inefficient, and frankly, it felt like there had to be a better way.

This experience drove him to create XLR8 — a connected network focused on making data work for people, teams, and organizations. He wanted to help them access the information they need, when they need it, so they could make confident decisions on their own terms.

That’s our mission at XLR8: to connect the dots so everyone can see the big picture and understand how their work aligns with strategy — on demand, wired into the fabric of the organization.

Every day, people and teams see and feel the value they bring. This transforms how they view their work and their place within the organization — fast-tracking customer value and accelerating business outcomes.

Put simply, our goal is to help everyone move from a feeling of “everything is scattered” to “everything is connected.”
