Beyond the survey
Know what's changing between surveys
The survey tells you what people say when they're asked. Parafoil adds more sensors: a weekly read on how your organization actually behaves.
The question you get asked
“Engagement in Engineering dropped six points. Why?”
- Survey results arrive after the moment to act has passed.
- Self-report captures how people feel, and you still need to know why.
- You're asked why a number moved and have nothing to point to.
What Parafoil shows you
A behavioral signal every week

Ask Parafoil · your organization
Explain the engagement drop in Engineering this quarter.
1:1s thinned out and decisions got harder to close
Over the same twelve weeks, 1:1s in Engineering fell and more decisions came back for a second discussion. Clarity fell further there than anywhere else.
These moved alongside the survey result. They show what tends to go together, not what caused it.
Based on meetings analyzed across 25–49 managers, this quarter.
Why it matters
What changes for your team
Explain, don't just report
Walk into the survey debrief with the patterns behind the number.
Fewer pulses, more signal

A read for every HRBP
Give each HR business partner a weekly view of their part of the business, scoped to what they cover.
The science
Measured against expert human judgment
Parafoil's measures are calibrated against expert human judgment and grounded in decades of published behavioral science. It's why the answers hold up in the room.
Privacy by design
Answers about teams, never about a person
Every leader keeps their own feedback private, and the organization sees teams. That's why people lead naturally, and why the data is worth trusting.
Questions
What people ask us
Does it replace our engagement survey?
It works alongside it. The survey tells you what people say when asked. Parafoil shows how they're being led every week, which helps you explain what the survey finds.
How reliable is it?
Parafoil's measures are calibrated against expert human judgment, and our method is published.
Can we get the data out?
Yes, at team level: through the API, a CSV export, or the Claude connector. Nothing about an individual manager leaves the product.
