Collaboration
See how your organization actually collaborates
The org chart shows who reports to whom. Parafoil shows which teams actually work together, where the links between them are weakening, and how decisions get made on each side.
The question you get asked
“Why do Product and Sales keep missing each other?”
- Silos show up in results months after they form.
- A reorg is drawn on the org chart and then never checked.
- Everyone has a theory about where the friction is.
What Parafoil shows you
The map the org chart can't draw
Parafoil maps how departments meet across the meetings it analyzes. Line thickness shows how many cross-team manager pairs actually meet, and a badge marks any link that has weakened since the previous six weeks.
Collaboration across analyzed meetings

Who works with whom
Every link carries its denominator, such as 18 of 60 manager pairs meeting, and the meeting mix behind it: 1:1s, small groups or large ones.
Weakening links, flagged
When two departments stop meeting the way they used to, the link is marked, so you can ask about it before the handoffs start failing.
How decisions get made
See the balance of Command, Consult, Collaborate and Delegate in each team, and whether it shifted after a reorg.

Which teams stopped meeting since the reorg?
People and Design have drifted apart
Manager pairs meeting across People and Design fell from 31 to 18 since the reorg on 6 Oct. Most of the drop is in small-group meetings.
Engineering is now connected to more departments than any other, and meets Sales more than before.
Based on meetings analyzed across 50+ managers, the last six weeks.

The science
Measured against expert human judgment
Parafoil's measures are calibrated against expert human judgment and grounded in decades of published behavioral science. It's why the answers hold up in the room.
Privacy by design
Answers about teams, never about a person
Every leader keeps their own feedback private, and the organization sees teams. That's why people lead naturally, and why the data is worth trusting.
Questions
What people ask us
How soon does the map appear?
As soon as enough meetings have been analyzed to draw it reliably, usually within the first few weeks.
Can I see which people meet each other?
No. The map shows how departments work together, never individuals.
What do you need from us?
Departments from your HR system, or a CSV roster. That's what turns meetings into a map of teams.
