Reading the Overview

Overview is a read-only view of the decision pipeline as a whole. Where Triage, Pending, and Decisions each show individual items, Overview shows the flow — how much work is moving from Triage into Pending, broken down by decision type and volume.

Open Stats from the left rail.

What it shows

  • Where work is concentrated — which decision types (price, purchase orders, transfers, watch list, promo, clearance) dominate this week.
  • Where work is piling up — a large Triage volume that is not converting into committed decisions.
  • Throughput — whether the team is keeping pace with what twelfth is surfacing.

Reading the flow diagram

The Triage → Pending → Outcome diagram is one cohort of lines followed left to right. Each band is a decision type, and each box is where those lines have got to:

Box What it means
Entered triage Every line the flow accounts for — still in Triage, sitting in Pending, or already recorded in the selected window
Awaiting review Still in Triage. Surfaced for you, but not yet reached Pending
Reached pending Made it to Pending — including lines since decided or dropped
Uncommitted In Pending right now, not yet recorded as a decision
Decided Recorded as a decision during the selected window
Dropped Removed from the flow during the selected window, with the reason shown under the diagram
Two clocks in one picture

Triage and Pending counts are live — what is in those queues right now. Outcomes (decided and dropped) are windowed — only what happened in the 7d, 30d, or 90d period you have selected. Changing the window changes the outcome columns, not the live ones.

The narrow bands are labelled in a card beside the diagram rather than inside the box, so a decision type with only a handful of lines is still readable.

How to use it

Overview is for standing back, not for acting on a single item — it is deliberately read-only. Use it to plan where to spend attention, then jump into Triage or Pending to do the work.

Home vs Overview

Home is your starting point for the day — your briefing and the composer for asking Twelfth. Overview is the map of the pipeline itself. They answer different questions: what should I do next? versus where is the work flowing?
