Decision tracking
Every decision has an outcome.
Log every decision with context, owner, and status. When someone asks "I thought we agreed…" — you have the answer.

MODERN RAID LOG SOFTWARE FOR DELIVERY PM'S
Project delivery confidence, finally.
Causr connects the decisions, risks and blockers buried in Slack, meetings and standups to the milestones they threaten. You never have to reconstruct status updates from memory again.
Every decision has a record. Every blocker has an owner. Every delay has a cause.
Built with feedback from experienced project managers frustrated by traditional RAID logs.
Your project plan isn't the problem.
Your roadmap says green. So does the sprint board. The thing that's about to blow your deadline didn't happen in any of them, it was the risk raised in an impromptu chat that was missed.
With poor communication cited as a leading cause of 57% of project failure, you need a single source of truth to track and manage your risks, blockers, decisions and meeting notes.
Causr gives them a home, links them to the milestone they threaten, and shows you what's actually at risk — giving you full delivery confidence of your project.
How it works
One view. Every loose thread connected.
Causr sits above your existing tools — not inside them. No new workflows for your team and no extra meetings for anyone.
01
Capture
Add decisions, risks, blockers, and updates from a meeting, a Slack message, email, or a quick note. Attach them to what they actually affect — not just a date.
Decision·Risk·Blocker·Update
02
Connect
Every item links to a milestone. The impact graph shows you what's upstream of a delay and what happens downstream if it isn't resolved.
blocker → milestone·milestone → +7 days·upstream·downstream
03
Act
Every node has an owner and a status. Causr surfaces what's overdue, what's escalating, and what needs a decision today — not on Friday's status call.

A RAID log records what exists. Causr shows what it's doing to your deadline.
Drag the handle up to reveal the how effective Causr is compared with a RAID log. Same team, same deadline, one PM has Causr.
RAID log
- Row 14: Dev capacity — HIGH risk
- Row 15: UX sign-off — OPEN issue
- Row 16: Scope change — ASSUMED
No connection between them. No link to which milestone they threaten. No projection of impact. Updated before the steering committee. Forgotten by Tuesday.
With Causr
- △Risk: Dev capacity → Threatens: App Launch · projected +14d → Owner: Josh · Open 12 days
- ⊘Blocker: UX sign-off → Threatens: Scheduling go-live · +7d → Owner: Sarah · Awaiting response
- ◇Decision: Scope change agreed → Affects: 3 downstream milestones → Logged: 28 Apr · by James
Same information. One of them is useful on a Monday morning.

Blocker visibility
Unblock every delay before impact.
Capture blockers the moment they surface, assign ownership, and watch how long they've been open. Nothing hidden.

03
Risk tracking
Flag it once it's raised and before it lands.
Log risks relationally — attached to the milestone they threaten, not just today's date. See what's creeping toward your critical path.
