Our Journey

Our Journey

Our Journey

Our path to Rhythms started in 2015 with Ally.io, where we transformed how organizations implement OKRs. Working with companies like Dropbox, Nike, and Slack, we learned that beyond just goal-setting, successful execution requires operational excellence at every level.

After Microsoft acquired Ally.io in 2021, we scaled this vision to millions of users through Viva Goals. This experience revealed a deeper truth: the most successful organizations run on consistent, well-structured rhythms that connect strategy to daily execution.

Rhythms represents the culmination of these insights and is the first AI-native business operating system that orchestrates organizational rhythms, combining proven practices with intelligent automation to help teams achieve their boldest goals.
