We built project management in our EOS software because we needed it ourselves. As fellow operators running a business, we know exactly how precious your time is — that’s why every feature we add is designed to save you minutes that add up to massive changes over time.
When we sold our previous company BrightGauge, we did it using EOS as our business operating system. But here’s what we discovered: project management is all about working IN the business, while running on EOS is working ON the business. Since you need to do both, shouldn’t your tools?
The Problem: Working IN vs. Working ON Your Business
Working IN the business is this: tasks, projects, daily communication.
Working ON the business looks different: strategy, goal setting, data analysis.
Here’s where EOS comes in. The methodology brilliantly bridges this gap — Rocks force you to work ON strategic priorities, L10 meetings create accountability rhythm, and the whole framework drives systematic improvement. But traditional EOS tools lived in isolation from daily workflows, creating a gap between strategy and execution.
Our Vision: Stop Software Sprawl Through Strategic Integration
Modern businesses juggle 15-20+ tools on average. Context switching kills productivity, important work falls through the cracks when it lives in silos, and teams develop “tool fatigue” that makes them resist adopting new systems.
We saw this happening everywhere — including in our own company. Before we built projects in Strety, everyone was using their own method and tool to manage their projects, which was way more complicated than it needed to be and reduced visibility and transparency. So we built a solution with two key components:
1. Comprehensive project management within Strety itself
2. Strategic integrations with the tools teams already use
This way, whatever project management software you use (whether it’s Strety or external), it’s connected to your bigger initiatives.
Option 1: Project Management Within Strety
We’ve been using Strety to build Strety for months now and it’s working beautifully — that’s how confident we are in our internal project management capabilities.
Project Spaces are built with many of the same tools as a team space, including dedicated communication threads, issue tracking, and comprehensive check-ins. Sometimes Rocks need the space that Projects provide — when that’s the case, link your Strety Rock to your Strety Project and let the Project power your Rock check-ins.
What makes this powerful is integration. Your projects connect seamlessly to L10 meetings, 1:1 meetings, and performance reviews because they all live in the same platform. Projects are often high priority and warrant discussion in your weekly L10 meetings. If you have Project(s) linked to your team space, add the Project Tool to your agendas for a dedicated space to update everyone on project statuses.
Leadership gets real-time visibility without micromanaging, and project updates automatically feed into EOS scorecards. No more hunting through multiple tools to understand what’s actually happening.

Option 2: Strety EOS Software + Project Management Integrations
We recognize that changing behavior is harder than changing tools. So instead of forcing teams to abandon their preferred workflows or project management tools they love, we built integrations with high-frequency, daily-use applications through bi-directional sync. Teams maintain context while reducing tool switching, and EOS commitments flow naturally into existing workflows. That’s right — you can keep your fav project management tool while using Strety as your EOS software: best of both worlds.

The Compound Effect: Integration Meets Internal Project Management
When integration meets internal project management, something powerful happens. Projects span multiple tools and teams naturally, EOS commitments connect to daily workflows seamlessly, and leadership gets visibility without tool proliferation.
Real Customer Impact: 31st Street Capital
We are members of each Strety instance — one instance for each of the portfolio companies, as well as one for the holding company. The Microsoft To Do integration was transformational: I sit in on eight to ten meetings each week—across five companies and seven brands. Managing all those to-dos and rocks was a real headache before Strety. Now, with everything integrated into one place through Outlook’s To Do list, I’ve become a lot more efficient!
Pendello Solutions: Technical Integration
The ability to create that To Do in Strety and have integrations to put that in as a ticket inside the PSA eliminates this option of “Hey, oh, we forgot about doing that.”
The transformation in team engagement was immediate: It’s also completely transformed the way my employees interact with EOS. When I first started with implementation, it was like, “Hey, everybody, I want you to use this framework.” It was just a directive, really. Since we’ve been running EOS® on Strety, the team gets tangible results out of EOS®.
The Network Effect
Each integration makes the platform stickier as teams integrate more workflows. More integrations create more powerful cross-functional visibility, and EOS adoption improves because it fits into existing habits rather than disrupting them.
Why This Approach Wins
Working IN the Business + ON the Business in One Place
Here’s what sets Strety apart: with traditional project management tools like Asana and ClickUp, you can work IN the business efficiently — managing tasks, tracking projects, coordinating teams. That’s valuable, but it’s only half the equation.
With Strety, you get both. You can work IN the business with powerful project management capabilities that rival dedicated PM tools. But you also get exclusive EOS tools that help you work ON the business — strategic planning with Rocks, systematic accountability with L10 meetings, performance management that connects individual work to business goals, and scorecards that provide data-driven insights.
Pure project management platforms can’t give you this strategic layer. They’re built for tactical execution, not business operating systems.
We understand the daily challenges because we’ve lived them. When the Strety team says “We’re working on this,” it’s true. Our feature decisions are driven by real business needs, not feature checklists or some pie-in-the-sky roadmap.
What’s Next: The Future of Integrated Business Operations
We’re expanding to cover more specialized tools, building deeper integrations with existing platforms, and taking an API-first approach for custom integrations. Our long-term goal is to create a single source of truth that doesn’t require abandoning existing tools.
We envision a business operating system that grows with your organization, project management that serves strategic goals rather than just tactical execution, and technology that helps you run your business calmly.
Conclusion: Beyond Project Management Software
This isn’t really about the software — it’s about the outcome. Better projects that serve business strategy. Teams that work calmly and efficiently. Leaders who can focus ON the business because systems handle what’s IN the business. Growth that doesn’t require heroics or constant firefighting.
The Strety Difference:
- Built by people who’ve been in your shoes
- Designed to reduce tool proliferation, not add to it
- Integration-first philosophy that meets teams where they work
- EOS-compatible platform that goes beyond basic digitization
We created the best EOS software for project management because we needed it ourselves. Now we’re sharing it with other operators who want to grow their businesses calmly.
