Your calculated result
Planning score
Every person gets a role (user, champion, influencer, approver, blocker), a stance toward the purchase, and an influence rating.
Alignment is calculated from supportive influence versus resistant influence across the whole committee, not just headcount.
The tool ranks resistant and blocking stakeholders by influence so you know exactly who to address next.
In most B2B purchases, more than one person is involved: someone who uses the product, someone who champions it internally, people who influence the decision, someone who approves budget, and sometimes someone who can block it.
Map who you know now and rerun the tool as you learn more. An incomplete map is still more useful than none — it shows where you have blind spots.
It compares total supportive influence to total resistant influence across every stakeholder you listed, weighted 1–5 by how much sway each person has.
Focus on the highest-influence resistant or blocking stakeholders first — winning over a low-influence skeptic barely moves the outcome.
No. Even small B2B deals often have a user, a budget holder, and someone quietly skeptical. Mapping them early avoids late-stage surprises.
