## How the outline gets built

### Grounded in named frameworks

Every section and KPI traces back to a published framework: the Google SRE Four Golden Signals, DORA metrics research, or blameless post-mortem practice. No invented benchmarks, no made-up percentages. If a section is in the outline, you can point to the source that justifies it.

### Adjusts to your audience

Engineering gets a raw metric appendix with query links. Leadership gets a one-paragraph summary with business impact framing: cost, risk, and velocity. Customer-facing gets an SLA statement instead of raw latency numbers, because that is what a customer actually reads.

### Adjusts to your cadence

Daily reports add a same-day comparison so a spike does not get buried. Weekly and monthly add trend narratives and percent change for the standup or the board deck. Post-incident swaps those for a blameless summary and an action tracker with owners.

## Built for the report you actually have to write

Nobody wants to start a post-incident report, or a Monday morning ops update, from a blank page at 11pm. Pick your source, audience, and cadence, and this tool hands you the section list and the KPIs a reviewer expects, in the order they expect them. It will not write your paragraphs for you, and it will not pretend to know your numbers. It gets you past the blank page, which is most of the friction anyway.

- Works for API, incident, deploy, cost, or analytics data
- Same outline logic every time, no login required
- Copy the outline straight into your report template
- Rerun it whenever the audience or cadence changes

## Common questions

### Does this analyze my real data?

No. It is a structure generator, not a data pipeline. It recommends sections and KPIs based on your data source, audience, and cadence. It never receives, stores, or processes your actual metrics, logs, or costs.

### Where do the KPIs come from?

They map to named frameworks: the Google SRE Four Golden Signals for API metrics, DORA metrics research for deployment data, and standard blameless post-mortem structure for incident reviews. Cost and analytics sections follow common FinOps and product-analytics reporting practice.

### Why does the audience selector change the sections?

An engineering audience expects a raw metric appendix with query links they can click through. Leadership expects a business impact framing in one paragraph. Customers expect an SLA statement, not raw latency numbers they cannot interpret.

### Can I edit the outline after it is generated?

Yes. Treat it as a starting skeleton, not a locked template. Add, remove, or reorder sections to match your team's existing report format or your incident review checklist.

### Is my selection sent to a server?

No. The outline builds entirely in your browser with plain JavaScript. Only an anonymous tool-run event fires on first interaction, with no metric values, source choice, or audience attached.

### Does this replace writing the report?

No. It gives you the skeleton, the KPI list, and a short note on why each section is there. You, or a drafting tool, still fill in the real numbers and the narrative around them.

### How is this different from a generic report template?

A generic template does not change when your audience or cadence changes. This one swaps in a different appendix, a different summary style, and a different mix of trend sections automatically.

### Is this free to use?

Yes, no signup required. Run it as many times as you want for different sources and audiences.

## Want the narrative written for you?

Feed this outline into Skywork's Documents agent with Deep Research mode. It drafts the full report copy, citing real sources, so you edit instead of writing from zero.
