Landings — Beyond Today's Data

Source: qdash landings — c100 bake-off #8, 2026-09-30

Nine ideas the ruling opened up ("explore possibilities, even if outside current data abilities"). None is served today. Each is one sketch: the question it answers, the image, the data it would need, where it would live, and my keep-or-kill read. The point is to decide which are worth a backend ask, not to polish them.

My read

Four are worth a backend ask now: X3 (data class × provider — the brand's first question, "where is my data going?", as one grid), X5 (spend forecast — Peterson's CFO ask, and the Finance lens has nothing honest without it), X9 (version drift — cheap, already half in the install records), and X2 (seats vs active — the single number a CFO acts on).

Two are worth keeping as sketches: X6 (adoption curves) waits on per-day people series; X8 (evidence shelf) waits on the controls backend. Both are strong images once the data exists.

Kill X1 as drawn. Work-type mix sounds useful but can't be derived honestly without reading prompts — the line c67 drew. If it comes back, it comes back from tool and file activity, and as a per-team fingerprint, not a mix chart. X4 and X7 fold into others: the approval ribbon is the Inventory arrivals card with a state machine; before/after is a time control on the Fleet floor, not its own view.
