Clearline is Rossignol's org chart and workforce cost modelling tool. Draw your structure, assign salary bands, model automation — and watch your wage bill and FTE update in real time.
Every restructure starts the same way: boxes and lines in a slide deck, headcount in a spreadsheet, and salary data in a separate file that someone has to manually reconcile. The result is decisions made on stale numbers — and no easy way to compare alternatives.
Leaders need to see the full picture in one place: who reports to whom, what each role costs, what the total wage bill looks like, and how it changes when structure changes. That's what Clearline is built for.
Clearline is designed for executives and consultants who need to move fast. No training required — just open it and start building.
Add roles, draw reporting lines, and build your org chart on an interactive canvas. Roles can be named, assigned to people, and collapsed to reduce clutter when working with large structures.
Set up your salary levels — C-Suite, Director, Manager, whatever fits your structure. Assign each role to a band and the wage bill calculates instantly. Any unassigned roles are flagged automatically.
Build multiple org charts side by side — current state, proposed state, alternative cuts. Switch between them to compare headcount, FTE, and total cost without losing your work.
Assign an automation percentage to any role. Clearline adjusts the human allocation automatically and removes the automated portion from the wage bill — so you can see the real cost impact of AI adoption across your org.
Clearline handles the details that slow down org design — job sharing, overhead, automation — so the numbers are always right.
The total wage bill updates as you build. Every role addition, band change, or allocation adjustment is reflected immediately — no manual recalculation.
Split a role across multiple people with configurable allocation percentages. Useful for part-time roles, fractional leadership, or shared service arrangements.
Assign an automation percentage to any role in 20% increments. The wage bill reflects only the human-allocated portion, and a separate savings figure shows the automation impact.
Apply an overhead percentage on top of base salaries to model the true cost of employment — superannuation, leave, office costs, or whatever your organisation includes.
Save org charts as clean .clearline.json files — semantic org data only, no display config. Share with colleagues, import into a new session, or archive for version control.
Print any active org chart as a structured table — useful for board papers, steering committee decks, or any situation where a screenshot won't do.
Clearline is built for two kinds of people: executive leaders who are working through a restructure and need to see cost implications in real time, and management consultants who are modelling org options for clients and need a tool that keeps up with a fast-moving workshop.
It's deliberately lightweight. No IT setup, no enterprise licence, no onboarding. Open the app, start building. Your data stays in your browser — or syncs to your account if you're signed in.
Clearline handles the modelling. But restructures often surface questions that go beyond the numbers — which functions to centralise, where automation is genuinely viable, how to sequence change across the organisation. When that happens, Rossignol's advisory team works alongside you directly. Clearline is where the conversation starts; our advisory practice is where it goes deeper.
Clearline is free to use. No sign-up required to get started — open the app, build your org chart, and see your wage bill calculate in real time.
