Peer Group Tools, a company founded by experienced peer group leaders Brandon Giles and Cam Mochan, has announced the general availability of PG Compass, a platform designed to empower confidential peer groups. PG Compass leverages AI to remove administrative burdens, allowing members to focus on building meaningful human connection instead of busywork. The platform has been adopted by over 100 peer groups to date, transforming the landscape of peer group operations.

Why it matters

As AI takes on more of the work that used to fill our calendars, people will have a greater need for real human connection. PG Compass is designed to protect that connection and ensure everyone can experience it at its best, especially in the context of peer groups that play a vital role in supporting leaders and entrepreneurs.

The details

PG Compass brings peer group meetings into one secure workspace, where members can prepare with customizable prompts, submit and vote on issues, and work through structured discussion frameworks. Post-meeting recap forms, commitment tracking, and automated reminders help keep progress moving, while a group dashboard gives leaders visibility into engagement and follow-through. The platform has helped reduce moderator prep time from 2-3 hours to 30 minutes, and improved commitment follow-through from as low as 25% to as high as 95%.

  • PG Compass was announced on April 8, 2026.
  • The platform has been adopted by over 100 peer groups to date.

What they’re saying

“As AI takes on more of the work that used to fill our calendars, people will have more need for real human connection. We built PG Compass to protect that connection and make sure everyone can experience it at its best.”

— Brian Holtz, CEO of Peer Group Tools

“We experienced the need directly – a tool we wished we had that could take over ninety percent of the administrative work and let us focus entirely on deepening human relationships during meetings.”

— Brandon Giles, Co-founder of Peer Group Tools

“In addition to the time I saved, everyone actually reads each other's updates now. We walk into meetings already knowing where people stand, and that means we spend our time on the hard conversations instead of the catch-up.”

— Dave Mann, EO and Men's Peer Groups Forum leader

What’s next

Peer Group Tools plans to continue expanding the adoption of PG Compass, helping more peer groups streamline their operations and focus on meaningful human connection.

The takeaway

PG Compass represents a shift in how peer groups can leverage technology to enhance their core purpose of fostering trust, shared vulnerability, and genuine accountability among members, rather than getting bogged down in administrative tasks.
