Our take
Axonify, formerly Nudge, was founded with frontline workers at the core of its product offering. Coming from a hospitality background, the company’s founders saw a need to improve organisational communication and a way to bridge that gap through a digital communication platform. Unlike most internal productivity tools, Axonify is designed for the majority of the workforce that do not sit behind a desk.
Axonify allows organisations to integrate their frontline employees into their wider communications channel, improving workforce productivity and frontline retention in several large organisations. By using Axonify, organisations can monitor and reward individual interactions, while offering tools for personal development for its users.
Axonify has quickly become popular amongst the frontline workforce tools, with clients including Samsung, Staples, and Dippin Dots. Successful funding rounds have enabled Axonify to expand its workforce across North America.
