L&D, ENGAGEMENT

AT A GLANCE

Swiss-built people intelligence platform that turns employee engagement surveys into AI-generated action plans and ties them back to business KPIs.

What is atwork

atwork is a modular employee engagement and performance platform built in Switzerland. Survey responses don't just sit in a dashboard — the AI converts them into specific action plans, then layers business impact modelling on top so HR can show what engagement is actually doing for the bottom line. Performance reviews (360/180/90) are now part of the stack too, which means one tool covers the full feedback loop after someone joins the company.

Who it's for

Yes, if…

  • You're a US SMB or EU mid-market HR team that wants to measure engagement continuously, not annually

  • You care about tying engagement data to actual business outcomes, not just running surveys for the sake of it

  • You're in healthcare, finance, public sector, or anywhere data residency matters (Swiss hosting is a real advantage)

  • You want one platform for engagement, action planning, and performance reviews instead of three separate tools

No, if…

  • You're a very small SMB (under 20 people) where a quarterly Google Form would do the job for now

  • You're a US-only buyer who needs deep US customer references, atwork's strongest footprint is DACH and Europe

  • You only want surveys and don't plan to act on the data, the value comes from closing the loop

Our take

We love atwork because they solve the part of the employee lifecycle that starts the moment Oryx finishes. You hire someone through a structured process in Oryx, they show up on day one, and then what? Atwork is how you actually keep a pulse on your team once they're in the door, and more importantly, how you do something about it. The Swiss data hosting is a real plus for anyone in healthcare, finance, or the public sector. Marco and the team have built something that goes beyond the "survey then forget" trap most engagement tools fall into.

Pros & cons

What works

  • Modular setup means you pay for what you use, start with surveys (Measure), layer on action plans (Act) and business impact modelling (Impact) as you grow

  • 20+ science-backed survey templates out of the box (engagement, eNPS, psychological safety, onboarding, etc.), so you're not building from scratch

  • Swiss-hosted data and strict GDPR compliance, which actually matters if you're hiring in the EU or regulated industries

  • AI turns survey results into specific action plans, not just dashboards you'll never look at again

  • Performance reviews (360°/180°/90°) are being added, so it's moving toward a full engagement plus performance stack

What to watch

  • Pricing isn't public, so you'll need a demo call to get numbers

  • Strongest footprint is DACH and Europe, US teams may find local competitors with bigger reference lists

  • Fullest value comes from bundling modules, so single-module users get less of the "turn insight into action" story
