What is the #1 thing we can do to reduce churn?
62Faster time-to-value during onboarding. 62% of churned accounts cited poor or slow implementation.
What would help you sell more?
45Real-time access to customer usage data and competitive battlecards. Reps say deals stall when they can't quantify ROI on the spot.
What can we do to cut onboarding time in half?
38Replace the 12-step manual setup with a guided self-serve wizard. Teams that piloted a streamlined flow hit first value in 3 days vs. 3 weeks.
What is our greatest untapped opportunity?
29Launching a Data-as-a-Service business line. We're sitting on proprietary usage and benchmarking data that 70% of interviewed customers say they'd pay for as a standalone product.
Department Summaries
Sales — Reps losing 4+ hrs/week to manual CRM entry and disconnected lead data. Faster integrations and automated lead scoring are top requests.
41Engineering — Deployment pipeline bottlenecks are the top friction point. Teams want faster CI/CD cycles and better staging environments.
36Customer Success — Renewal conversations start too late. CSMs want earlier health score alerts and automated expansion playbooks.
27The most important information in your business is trapped in your employees’ heads.
Why: At 150+ employees, critical information is lost in layers of middle management.
The cost: Wasted time, late decisions, costly mistakes, and missed opportunities.
- What are our biggest untapped opportunities?
- What are our biggest risks & how do we mitigate?
- How can we accelerate sales?
- How do we operate more efficiently?
- What’s blocked or blocking?
- Where should we focus next?
- What are bright spots worth scaling?
- How do we improve employee engagement?
- What & who should we celebrate?
- What else does leadership need to know?
Every layer is a filter
- Too busy to report upwards
- Sharing bad news is career limiting
- Important details lost in summarization
- Hard to separate signal from noise
Wasted time
Team members waste time wrangling information vs. driving progress.
Late decisions
Made on partial facts, then revisited a quarter later when the rest surfaces.
Costly mistakes & missed opportunities
Both visible on your own frontline months before they ever reached you.

Frequently asked questions
Elevea uses AI to periodically interview your employees on the strategic and operational topics that matter most to leadership — much like a Chief of Staff or COO running skip-levels — then connects those ideas and perspectives to your organization's most important KPIs and goals, and turns that intelligence into McKinsey-quality leadership reports and a searchable company brain that understands both performance and the qualitative explanations, drivers, and blockers behind those results. The more interviews you run, the smarter it gets. It's like having a chief of staff with the collective wisdom of your whole organization, working around the clock to keep leadership focused on what most deserves your attention.
Enterprise search tools only retrieve what's already written down. But oftentimes the questions that matter most — what's blocking progress, our biggest risks, how to accelerate growth — aren't documented, and even when they are, it's a partial, disconnected picture you can't build strategy on. Elevea specializes in first party data and connecting that data to the KPIs & goals that matter most for your organization. Our AI proactively forces expansive thinking, collects the critical strategic information trapped in your employees' heads, and surfaces the most important findings, trends, and recommendations for leadership, continuously & autonomously.
Traditional survey tools ask static, context-unaware questions, make people type out their answers, and need a full-time administrator just to launch them and make sense of the results. And the action plans and goals they inspire end up in a separate system, disconnected from the intelligence behind them. Elevea goes deeper: it asks intelligent, context-aware questions and follow-up questions, makes responding effortless with voice AI, gathers and synthesizes everything autonomously and lets you chat with your data, and connects that intelligence straight to actions and goals — so your team isn't just learning, it's improving.
Yes. Elevea's AI agents run continuous, lightweight interviews and studies right inside Slack, Microsoft Teams, and email, so employees respond in the flow of work. Instead of a once-a-year survey, it's an Always-On pulse that keeps leadership's visibility current.
Yes. With Elevea, people can simply speak their answers instead of typing — roughly 5x faster — capturing the nuance a static, text-only survey would miss.
Yes. Elevea connects your company's quantitative intelligence — metrics, KPIs, OKRs, and goal progress — with its qualitative intelligence — the strategy, insights, and perspectives from across the company — into one unified view for leadership. So you not only know how everyone is performing, you also see the signals on what's driving or slowing that performance.
Elevea is purpose-built for companies with 150+ employees — the stage where skip-levels become "increasingly impossible," cross-functional information silos emerge, and leaders lose their direct pulse on the organization. If that sounds like you, you're in our sweet spot.
You can be set up and launching your first study in hours, with our team guiding you every step of the way. Typically new customers are reviewing leadership intelligence surfaced by Elevea within 1-2 weeks.
