What it does

Analyze engagement, retention, and productivity.

Predict who is at risk

We score every employee for attrition risk from engagement, tenure, manager, performance, and workload signals, refreshed each cycle.

Surface the real drivers

We rank the factors actually driving attrition, from career growth to manager quality and recognition, not just the surface symptoms.

See it by team and manager

Risk and drivers break down by department, location, and manager, so leaders know exactly where retention effort will pay off.

Act before they leave

We match at-risk, hard-to-replace employees to retention actions and track whether the intervention kept them.
