What if you had a personal chatbox where you could type in any question about your workforce and get an instant, data-based reply? We’d like to introduce you to InsightsAI, the newest addition to our platform!

Insightful, an advanced remote work software, already offers an impressive suite of workforce analytics and time-monitoring capabilities. However, we wanted to raise the bar higher and introduce a new AI-driven feature. InsightsAI was created to help you better understand, manage, and support your team with accurate and immediate insights. All you have to do is ask the right questions.

What inspired this venture into Artificial Intelligence? We wanted to design a feature that could collect data from the Insightful platform and break it down into immediate, accurate feedback. Even more, we aim to introduce an entirely new workforce management style.

A New Approach to Workforce Management

With InsightsAI, we wanted to address a common issue related to workforce management: data overload. 

Day in and out, you’re probably buried under mountains of information, unsure how to sort, interpret, or even act on it. InsightsAI can review these complex data sets for you and give you a quick and easy-to-grasp analysis. Instead of spending time crunching numbers, you can get instant insights into productivity trends, employee performance, and other important data.

Having an AI chatbot do the so-called grunt work is a new concept. We noticed a lot of managerial focus is wasted on repetitive, time-consuming tasks. InsightsAI can analyze every aspect of your business—from workload distribution to employee well-being—allowing you to focus on what truly matters.

We call this AI-guided management.

How does it work?

The feature will be available as an add-on on our platform in the form of a search bar, accessible with the Insightful dashboard. 

Once you activate the chatbot, you can type in any question you may have about your workforce. For example, you can ask InsightsAI to give you a rundown of productivity trends within the last 6 months. Each answer is based on monitoring remote workers' productivity and the comprehensive stats from Insighful’s reports

While working on InsightsAI, we talked to managers, HR experts, CEOs, and others in leadership positions to understand what they really needed from their data. This wasn't a one-off conversation but a series of discussions that helped shape InsightsAI into a powerful feature that's also easy to use.

Quick, Easy & Accurate Analysis of Complex Data

Workforce analytics is an absolute must for building operational efficiency, but the sheer volume of data it produces can be hard to digest. InsightsAI simplifies the entire process. 

The feature actively transforms complex workplace data into actionable, contextual information. You’ll get instant answers and conclusions about any aspect of your workforce with a quick query. 

For example, you can ask InsightsAI which type of work productive employees typically prioritize (e.g., CRMs, services, communication, etc.) and get an instant list in the reply. As a result, you’ll save hours you would otherwise spend on data mining.

The AI-powered technology allows you to focus on the more complex parts of workforce management. You’ll be able to make informed decisions more confidently and more quickly.

Instant Insights into Trends & Work Patterns

InsightsAI uses advanced AI technology to monitor and analyze your organization's data trends. That means you’ll be able to see any relevant work patterns in real time and adjust your resource management according to the findings.

The feature helps you anticipate changes in productivity, technology use, or even team morale, which gives you a significant strategic edge. For example, you can ask for a list of tools or apps employees used more this month and potentially invest in similar technology. 

With these insights, you can catch any notable spikes or drop-offs in productivity and regroup, keeping your team agile and competitive.


A Direct Look into Your Team’s Wellbeing

InsightsAI gives you an overview of workload distribution, quickly emphasizing potential stress points across different teams. You’ll be able to spot employees at risk of burnout by simply asking the chatbot to provide a list.

Our goal has always been to help you create a healthier, more supportive work environment. Now with InsightsAI, you can make proactive changes to your workload while protecting your employees’ well-being, ultimately driving down turnover and boosting satisfaction rates.

The Ability to Learn & Grow With Your Organization

InsightsAI is designed with a deep learning capability that personalizes its functionality to your needs over time. The chatbot can analyze your questions and fine-tune its insights to align with your specific management style and organizational goals. 

Adaptive learning also means InsightsAI will become more valuable to you over time, offering recommendations that correspond with your unique context. This means that as your strategy evolves, so do the answers.

A Clear Path to Company Alignment

The add-on feature can integrate and analyze data from across your organization to ensure everyone is on the same page. 

AI-powered technology can give you the much-needed clarity to create and communicate your strategies on a larger scale. Once you have a clear picture of workplace trends and patterns, it’s easier to identify key metrics and stay on track. 

Using the data generated from InsightsAI, you can ensure each team member understands their specific role and what to prioritize. It’s a walkable path to being more agile and responsive to market changes.

Quick & Insightful Decision-Making

With InsightsAI, the vast amounts of information generated by your team's interactions, productivity patterns, and engagement levels are broken down into understandable, actionable advice. This enhanced decision-making capability allows you to fine-tune your strategies with a level of precision that was previously beyond reach. 

For example, if InsightsAI identifies certain times of the day or week when your team's productivity peaks or dips, you can adjust work schedules to capitalize on these insights. Similarly, suppose it spots signs of potential burnout or disengagement within specific departments. In that case, you can pour in more resources or offer additional support to those in need.

Improved Productivity Across All Teams

The AI-powered technology can easily identify what factors contribute to peak performance within your team. It can pinpoint times when productivity spikes and offer suggestions on how to replicate those conditions across different departments. 

InsightsAI also helps identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies that may be dragging your team down. If you spot these early on, you can put out fires before they spread and shift your resources to where they’re needed most.

Moreover, InsightsAI can monitor and analyze productivity patterns over time, meaning you're no longer acting on a hunch. You're making informed decisions backed by data monitoring. This kind of insight is invaluable when it comes to refining your strategies. It ensures that every move you make contributes to enhancing productivity.

Of course, it's not all about the numbers. InsightsAI also keeps a close eye on your team's well-being. You can use the feature to make sure workloads are balanced, indirectly boosting morale, employee engagement, and retention. A happy team is a productive team, after all.


What Comes Next?

InsightsAI is currently rolling out through a selective Beta program. At this stage, we want to make sure the new feature is polished, efficient, and ready to meet the diverse needs of our users. 

Right now, we’re testing the waters, but we’re hoping InsightsAI will soon become an integrated add-on feature available on the main platform. If you want to witness the development firsthand, you can subscribe to the waitlist for our Beta program. You can reach out to us via email at: [email protected].

Stay tuned as we test the limits of AI technology and what it can do for the modern-day workforce!
