Zenzap

Create your own AI agents in one click to automate custom workflows across your tools, with no technical skills needed, so you spend less time on busywork and more time on the work that matters. Connect your tools, then talk to them like you talk to your team. Describe any task or process in your own words to build a custom workflow. Start on your own, then invite your team to work with the same AI agents in a group chat. The familiar, secure interface is as easy as texting, so everyone can get started instantly. Your AI agents learn from your conversations and connected tools, adapting to how you work. Organize these chats around your workflows, with dedicated conversations for topics, projects, or locations. Any message can become a task or checklist, so you can assign work to an AI agent or colleague, track progress, and see what's outstanding. Messages, files, voice and video calls all live in the same place, with recordings and searchable transcriptions so you can find what you need and catch up on conversations you missed. Company data belongs to the business rather than the individual, so chat history, files, and contacts stay off employees' personal devices and under the company's control. Admins can add or remove access in a single click, so business data does not leave when an employee does. Zenzap is GDPR, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 compliant, plus HIPAA compliant with a signed BAA for healthcare teams. Key features and value propositions include: - AI Agents: Create AI agents in one click, customized for the way you actually work. Connect your tools and collaborate with the same AI agents as your team, with no technical expertise needed. - Automated Workflows: Create custom workflows for any task or process across your tools, in your own words. Your AI agents put them into action, giving you and your team hours back. - Full Admin Control & Compliance: Add or remove access in one click. Control who can create chats, use AI agents, and see information, and what AI agents can do. - Structured Communication: Dedicated chats organized around your workflows bring your team, AI agents, and ongoing work together, so information stays easy to find. - Business-Owned Data: Chat history, files, and contacts belong to the company and stay off personal devices, with everything stored securely in the cloud. - Efficiency Tools: Voice and video calls with recordings and searchable transcriptions, plus to-dos and checklists that turn any message into tracked, assigned work.

CentricMinds Work Chat

Most organisations don't have a messaging problem. They have a communication problem. Important updates get buried in group chats. Frontline employees miss company news. Managers spend time chasing people to find out whether they've seen information that matters. CentricMinds Work Chat is an employee communication platform that brings everyday team messaging, targeted company announcements and employee recognition together in one secure app. It's built for organisations that need more than another place for people to talk. They need to reach the right people, know important messages have been read and keep control of who has access. MORE THAN MESSAGING. COMMUNICATION YOU CAN ACT ON When a shift changes, a safety notice is issued or a company policy is updated, posting in a group chat and hoping everyone sees it isn't enough. Work Chat lets administrators send announcements to specific locations, teams or roles, deliver mobile push notifications and track readership. Important company information has its own place alongside everyday conversations, rather than getting buried among them. For HR and internal communications teams, this means greater visibility into who's receiving important updates. For managers, it means less time repeating information and following up. For employees, it means knowing where to find the information they need. YOUR CLOUD. YOUR CONTROL Unlike many employee communication platforms, Work Chat offers a choice of deployment. Organisations can use CentricMinds hosted Work Chat or deploy the platform within their own cloud environment, giving them greater control over where their communication data is hosted. This is particularly valuable for banks, insurers, healthcare providers, government agencies and member organisations with strict privacy, security and data residency requirements. Work Chat is a private, closed environment with centrally managed access and permissions. Administrators can manage visibility by location, team or role, helping organisations keep workplace conversations within an environment they control. The platform is SOC 2 Type II certified, ISO 42001 certified, HIPAA compliant and GDPR compliant. INCLUDE EVERYONE, EVEN WITHOUT A COMPANY EMAIL ADDRESS Traditional workplace tools can leave frontline employees, casual workers and contractors disconnected because they don't have corporate email accounts or company devices. Work Chat removes that barrier. Employees can join using their personal email address and access Work Chat from their own phone or through a web browser. The platform is available on iOS, Android and web, making it accessible to people working in offices, retail stores, healthcare facilities, warehouses and across distributed locations. Organisations can bring employees together without requiring everyone to have the same technology setup. KEEP EVERYDAY WORK MOVING Work Chat gives employees familiar, straightforward ways to communicate and collaborate. Direct messages and group channels make it easy to ask questions, coordinate work and share information. File and image sharing keeps relevant content within conversations, while searchable message history helps employees find previous discussions. Polls and surveys give organisations a simple way to gather feedback, and peer recognition makes it easy to acknowledge colleagues and celebrate contributions. A staff directory helps people find and connect with others across the organisation, while integrations connect Work Chat with the tools teams already use. ONE PLATFORM FOR EMPLOYEES, TEAMS AND MEMBER NETWORKS Work Chat isn't limited to traditional office environments. A retailer can connect head office with individual stores. A healthcare provider can reach staff working across facilities and shifts. A logistics company can keep operational teams informed wherever they're working. A professional association or member organisation can create a private environment for its network. The same platform supports everyday conversations, important organisational updates and connections across distributed groups, with access managed centrally. EVERY FEATURE. EVERY PLAN Work Chat keeps pricing straightforward. Every feature is included in every plan, without separate feature tiers or additional modules. Pricing is transparent and charged per user per month, with a minimum of 50 users. Organisations can start with the capabilities they need today without having to upgrade simply to access core communication features. WHY CHOOSE CENTRICMINDS WORK CHAT? Work Chat combines three things that are often treated separately: simple messaging people will use, structured communication organisations can measure, and the flexibility to choose where the platform is hosted. It's designed to help organisations spend less time chasing information, include people who are often left out of workplace technology and maintain greater control over their communication environment. Because sending a message isn't the same as making sure people got it.

Efectio

Efectio’s mission is to offer an innovative tool based on science and data. We want to help employees become engaged in their company’s culture, realize their potential, and for organizations – to succeed thanks to a productive and happy workforce. We believe that employee engagement is essential to any organization and needs to be addressed comprehensively. The Efectio platform motivates employees to learn important information about their company, set better goals, follow the team’s achievements, and get to know their colleagues better – promoting individual engagement in the organization and thus more excellent individual and overall productivity. When developing the Efectio tool, we based it on gamification. Gamification turns content (that might otherwise seem boring) into something interactive and fun. This method encourages employees to behave in a way that managers would like to see more, by using human enthusiasm to engage in games. Efectio uses a reward system to help evaluate employees’ achievements and promote further progress. Gamification fosters our natural desire for rewards by encouraging the brain to release dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and enhance positive feelings.
