Company Values

What we value

We believe in acting on data to make better decisions, and most of all, in empowering people. We live our values every day by creating an inclusive and collaborative culture that seeks solutions and champions excellence.

Our people are everything

Talented people thrive when they feel respected and free to grow. We take care of our people above all else.

Our customers drive our business

You trust us with a precious resource – your data. We repay that trust with results: improved efficiency, increased revenue, and better decision-making. It’s why we exist.

Greater outcomes through accountability

We believe pride of ownership creates better results. Every project has a single owner; one person is in charge of making it happen.

Every problem has a solution

We believe there are no unsolvable problems. It just takes time and teamwork to come to a resolution.

Take intelligent risks to move forward

“Very good” today is better than “perfect” tomorrow. Striving for perfection means you fear taking any risks at all.

Disagree, discuss, align, commit

Sometimes projects face forks in the road. We discuss, challenge, and debate, but once a decision is made, we unite and move forward.

Radical transparency

Transparency is paramount. Openness creates accountability, from People.ai leadership to individuals in every department. No black boxes. No hiding.

We are data-driven

It’s our way of life. Data leads to better decisions – not just for our customers, but for People.ai itself.
