Know how the team is doing before it becomes a problem
A couple of anonymous questions a week, answered from the inbox in thirty seconds. A score by category that moves before the problem does.
- Set up in five minutes
- Two questions a week, by email
- Anonymous, with a threshold
The report: one rolling score, the trend, and a line per category.
Three decisions, then it runs itself
The defaults are good. Turn it on with nothing changed and the first questions go out this week.
- Set the rhythm
Daily, weekly, every other week, monthly, or quarterly. Which days, and morning or afternoon. Weekly with two questions is the default, and the questions are spread across the week so it never feels like survey day.
- Pick the questions
Ten categories and fifty-plus questions in the bank. Tick the ones you want, add your own, and pin up to two that are asked every time. The rest rotate, so every question is asked once before any is asked twice.
- Read and act
A score by category, the trend, and the comments. A digest lands in your inbox every Monday, and it says so when a category has dropped. From there, run a Gauge on it or make it a goal.
Thirty seconds, from the inbox
The email carries the first question with five buttons. Tap one and the page opens with the rest. No login, no app to install, one optional comment at the end.
- Each person has a day. Always the same one, so it becomes a small habit rather than a surprise.
- It goes somewhere. Show the category scores to the whole team, so people see that answering changes something.
- It closes on time. Answers stay open until the end of the week, then the week is done. One reminder, never a nag.
I know what is expected of me this week.
The email. The first question is answered with one tap.
Ten categories, written to be answered in a second
Plain statements on a five-point scale, reported as percent positive. Add your own questions to any category.
- Clarity & direction
- Manager support
- Workload & wellbeing
- Recognition
- Growth
- Team & belonging
- Autonomy & trust
- Voice & safety
- Tools & process
- Pride & commitment
Anonymous by design, not by promise
Answers are never stored against a name. You see "11 of 12 answered this week" and the percentages once five people have answered. Comments show without names, in shuffled order.
A threshold, every time
No category or question shows until five people have answered it. Small teams stay safe because the whole team gets the same questions each week.
A rolling window
Read the last 30, 90 or 365 days. Every category carries its change, and every question says how many times it has been asked.
The Monday digest
The score, what moved, and the comments, in your inbox every Monday. The subject line changes when something has dropped.
Scores to the team, if you choose
Category scores can show to everyone. Comments stay with admins.
Once a quarter
The 0 to 10 "would you recommend working here" question, asked in the first week of each quarter and reported on its own.
