How the gate works

How the Deal Momentum Tripwire gate works

This tool grades a single open deal's real forward motion, not just its stage. It scores 5 weighted controls into a 0–100 number — then a gate that can only make the verdict worse.

Ghost-deal gate · worsen-only

A deal with 1 or fewer engaged stakeholders whose time in stage has passed 1.5x your median stage length is forced to DEAD WEIGHT regardless of score - a lone-contact deal that has outlived its stage doesn't close.

57/100
DEAD WEIGHT

Why: This deal scores 57, which would normally read STALLING. But it has only 1 engaged stakeholder and has sat in stage 1.7x your median (34 days vs. a 20-day median) - the ghost-deal gate floors it to DEAD WEIGHT regardless of the raw score.

Fix firstMulti-thread now: earn a second buy-side contact this week, or advance/disqualify the deal at your next stage gate.

A high score didn’t save it. The score is context; the gate is the answer — and it names the one thing to fix first. Grades your own CRM inputs for stall risk; connects to nothing and guarantees no close.
