    Early warning for team drift

    Know when your team is struggling. Before it shows up in results.

    Sixty seconds a day. Everyone checks in, managers included. Leaders see where strain is building across their teams while there's still time to act.

    Team patterns stay locked until at least five check-ins come in. That floor is enforced in the data layer, and no admin can lower it.

    What Paulo is

    Paulo is a behavioral signal platform for mid-sized organizations. Each person spends sixty seconds a day naming how they're showing up and what's driving it, and gets one forward-looking nudge back. Managers see anonymized team patterns, never individual check-ins, and only after at least five check-ins come in. Leaders get an early read on team drift and a better conversation about what to do next.

    Private by design

    How privacy works
    • Managers never see an individual check-in. That boundary is part of the architecture.
    • Team patterns stay locked until at least five check-ins come in. No admin, at any tier, can lower that floor.
    • AI Coach conversations are never rolled into team analytics.

    A better conversation every week

    Each week, managers get a short read on their team: how people are showing up, which way it's trending, the drivers coming up most, and one suggested move. A conversation to have, an expectation to clear up, a win worth recognizing. On the Intelligence tier, leaders see the same patterns across teams.

    The AI Coach

    Opt-in, by voice or text, for employees and managers alike. A manager can rehearse a hard conversation before having it. The Coach runs separately from the check-in and the nudge.

    Your engagement survey shows how last quarter felt.

    Paulo covers the weeks in between. It runs daily, shows what's driving the shift, and gives the manager something to do about it this week.

    Questions

    Can my manager see my check-in?

    No. Managers only see team patterns, and only after at least five check-ins.

    How long does it take?

    Sixty seconds a day.

    How is this different from a pulse survey?

    It runs daily, shows cause and direction, and gives the manager a specific move for the week.

    Is the AI Coach required?

    No. It's opt-in, and its conversations never feed team analytics.
