Slack Brilliant Bot
Trusted by 2,000+ workspaces for high-fidelity pulse feedback
For Employees & Team Members
Zero Audience Pressure & Complete Confidentiality
Replying in a public channel can trigger anxiety about how coworkers or managers might interpret your response. Pulse surveys arrive confidentially in your Slack DMs.
- Private 1-on-1 DM: Answer quick questions directly without opening third-party browser tabs.
- Aggregated Results: Your individual responses are blinded and aggregated to protect your identity.
- Quick One-Click Buttons: Multiple-choice and rating scales make feedback fast and frictionless.
For Executives & People Ops
Ground-Truth Data & Inquiries Without Executive Title Bias
Long annual surveys arrive too late to prevent attrition. Pulse surveys give leadership real-time temperature checks and the ability to ask ground-level inquiries without executive presence distorting the data.
- Executive Inquiries: Float questions to gauge real frontline opinions on strategy or culture without the CEO title creating artificial panic.
- Automated Pulse Cadence: Schedule recurring weekly temperature checks or quarterly deep-dives.
- Target Usergroups: Filter surveys to specific departments (e.g.
[Sales],[Engineering]) or all staff.
