Daily Execution Score
A daily execution score is the percentage of a day's planned tactics completed, scored at day's end rather than waiting for Friday. It tightens the feedback loop from a week to a day, useful for daily-cadence tactics and for catching a drifting week by Tuesday instead of discovering it in the weekly review.
The weekly execution score is the 12 Week Year's canonical metric, but a week is still a long feedback loop when several tactics run on a daily cadence. If 'make 10 outreach touches' is a Monday-to-Friday tactic, a skipped Monday and Tuesday means the week is already capped at 60% for that tactic before Wednesday starts — and a weekly-only score won't tell you until it's too late to recover.
A daily score fixes this by asking one question at the end of each day: of the tactics due today, what fraction happened? It takes under a minute and turns the scorecard from a Friday autopsy into a live instrument. Two low days in a row is a signal you can still act on; a low Friday score is just a record.
Daily scoring works best as a lightweight supplement, not a replacement — the weekly score remains the number you review and share. In Pilot, daily-cadence tactics update the day's score as you check them off, and the weekly score aggregates automatically, so neither number requires bookkeeping.
