A human-centric approach to writing text that's both easy to use and builds collaboration across the team.

Develop Diverse has really helped us shift how we think and write - not just in terms of gendered language (which we expected), but in being more inclusive across age, neurodiversity, ability, and more. It’s been a surprisingly effective way to bring the broader DEI conversation into something tangible and actionable. The implementation process was super smooth and quick, mostly because the tool is quite simple to use in itself. It’s intuitive from the start, and the visual feedback makes it really easy to understand where and how you can improve. It makes collaboration smoother. We could easily show the value to the more skeptical crowd - having hiring managers see the suggestions in real time made a big difference. The suggestions themselves are smart and make sense in the context of the whole sentence, which helps avoid that awkward “find and replace” feel. While the tool helps promote our value of being kind, the fact that it’s kind of playful (you can aim for that perfect score!) made it easier for people to understand.

Develop Diverse has supported us as an organization in the desire to bring the DEI agenda down to a concrete plan. This has resulted in an increased focus on inclusive language as well as the setup of both job advertisements and internal documents, e.g., our employee handbook. It is easy to use and also functions for us as a tool to continuously keep our focus on inclusive language and choices as well as exclusions.
