We built Palsent because that email should never be a surprise — and because HR leaders deserve an instrument as precise as the ones every other function already has.
Annual surveys tell you what already broke. By the time the report lands, the resignation email is in drafts and the rebuild is six months out. We treat workforce health the way physicists treat temperature: measured continuously, with calibrated instruments, against a baseline that means something.
Frontline staff never receive a Palsent account. Responses attach only to a team. Below the configured threshold, scores are suppressed at the database query layer — not hidden behind a frontend filter that a single SQL query could expose.
Forty-question surveys teach employees that feedback is a tax. Six well-calibrated Likert items, asked on cadence, earn response rates above 70% — and the answers arrive with the urgency intact.
Claude reads open-ended responses and applies a risk modifier between 0 and −15 with a written justification. HR Admin reviews and edits every AI narrative before it touches an executive deck.
Pricing is flat per band. No per-employee math, no surprise invoices when you hire, no procurement cycle. The math closes on a single line of a finance ledger.
Every Palsent loop ends with a .pptx your CEO can read in five minutes — cover, scorecard, narratives, alerts, actions. The instrument is only useful if it makes the meeting easier.
