atwork Timeline
atwork (formerly known as Volunty) was founded in Zurich, Switzerland.
After countless interactions with HR professionals, we focused on an unsolved challenge: How do employee feedback and HR data impact business metrics and how can HR investments be quantified? On this basis, we won two government grants from Innosuisse to create an initial scientific basis for measuring and improving employee engagement. These were the beginnings of atwork’s now extensive scientific foundation.
Further development of our software solution with the aim to support HR professionals in quantifying their work for their organization and providing them with scientifically sound and AI-driven recommendations for action that lead to desired results.
atwork raises a 3.25m Seed funding round from renowned Swiss investors to fuel the growing customer interest and ambitious plans to disrupt a saturated market. Read the article on atwork in the NZZ. To accelerate product development, atwork built a strong team of software developers, people, and data scientists in Santander, Spain.
atwork completes the development of its entire measurement solution and the underlying impact framework. With atworks Impact Framework, acting as an AI “Middle Layer”, the access to Large Language Models accelerated the further development of atworks Suite to complete proprietary Act and Impact features with the help of generative AI.
atwork offers the first fully automated and completely customized action recommendation engine, becoming the most comprehensive solution for both measuring and improving desired HR metrics – science-based, data-driven, and powered by AI. atwork raises 1.5m to further accelerate growth and pave the way to Series-A.
