Build the agenda, run the session, and walk out with priorities, owners and measures.
Most offsites end in a wall of stickies and a plan four weeks later. Start here and the day ends with priorities, owners and measures instead. Building the agenda and running the session is free for a limited time.
Plan the agenda
The agenda is shaped by what your team, company and customers say, so the room works on a problem it actually has and ends on a decision.
Approved.
Run the room
Run a focused day devoid of tangents, so the biggest call does not end up with eight minutes at four o'clock.
Three of our top five clients have flat or shrinking scopes and nobody owns growing them.
We win pitches on senior people, then staff them off the account by month three.
We have not raised rates in two years while our costs went up eleven percent.
Nobody can name who is accountable for the growth number.
12 in the room. All 12 answered.
Execute the plan
Throughline keeps the plan in front of everyone after the offsite, flagging drift and nudging owners before anything slips, so what got decided gets done.
Shipping slipped three days. The Halifax line is the holdup.
Every decision leaves with a named owner and a date, agreed while that person is still in the chair, so you do not spend the next 3 months aligning on the alignment.

With Throughline
Offsites are not short of good thinking. They are short of a way for that thinking to reach the people who have to act on it, before it goes stale and before anyone has re-litigated it in a townhall.
Works with the framework your team already uses
Yes. Building the agenda costs nothing, asks for no card and has no deadline. Ask your team, entire company and customers questions, see where they already agree and where they split, and shape the day from what comes back. If you stop there, export the brief and run the day yourself. The session in the room is the paid step, and it is the only one.
No, and you do not have to let one go either. Without one, your own leader runs the day: every block carries what it is for, how long it has and what it has to produce, so the day holds its shape. With one, they keep doing the part only a person can do, reading the room and pushing on the answer nobody wants to give, while Throughline takes the clock, the capture and the follow-through. Either way nobody from Throughline is in the room.
A chatbot writes an agenda from what it can guess about your company. This one is built from what your team actually said, and each block is matched to a real strategy or team method chosen against what that read says is wrong. Nothing is generated at you: you see the agenda, change it, and lock it before anyone travels.
A coherent plan built from every decision with a named owner, date, priorities and measures underneath them. Download it as PDF, Markdown or CSV and import it wherever you already track work, or run it live in Throughline.
Answers are anonymous to everyone else, including you. The room sees every answer at once and never who said it, and you are folded in as one more anonymous respondent. What the team said belongs to the room rather than to the company.
It is about two minutes on their own phone, with no account, no download and no login, and their answers are anonymous. That is most of why it gets done. The window runs 48 hours from when you ask rather than from the offsite itself, so there is room to chase before the day.
Yes. A session runs with everyone in one room, everyone on a call, or some of each. In the room, everyone answers on their own phone and the wall shows the answers together. On a call, you paste the meeting link and the capture happens there.
Half a day, a full day, or two days. A two-day offsite is one continuous session that parks overnight, so the second morning opens on what the first day actually decided instead of on a fresh agenda.
If you run the plan in Throughline, it cascades to each team as their own priorities and measures, and the follow-through runs for 90 days and beyond, with drift flagged and owners nudged before anything slips. If you export instead, the plan is yours to run wherever you track work.
