Overview
Knoetic helps Chief People Officers and HR executives by unifying their people data from multiple HR systems into a single platform where they can analyze everything in one place.

This enables users to get quick, seconds-long answers to people-related questions and to make informed decisions about staffing, retention, and workforce strategy. Knoetic differentiates itself by combining data integration with a built-in network of HR professionals and access to industry benchmarks, not just analytics, giving leaders both practical insights and a community to learn from. The company's goal is to empower HR leaders to understand what motivates their employees, improve retention and satisfaction, and stay informed about the future of work through data-driven decision making and peer knowledge sharing.

The evolution of a successful company involves a typical storyline that goes from the founding team focusing on product and growth at the earliest stages to the founders’ roles transitioning to storytelling and finding, engaging, and retaining the right talent after product-market-fit is established. Eventually, as company roles become more specialized, many companies are hiring Chief People Officers (CPOs) to manage the strategy of building and retaining exceptional talent with a focus on hiring, training, professional development, and performance management. Knoetic is a platform built for Chief People Officers by Chief People Officers. The platform is a workforce analytics platform that also has its own professional social network of 1000+ Chief People Officers that are able to support one another and provide best practices. The analytics side allows CPOs to take an unprecedented data-driven approach to their roles. The company is emerging from stealth but has its roots in another startup that combined analytics and community founded by the same team – Twine. AlleyWatch caught up with Founder and CEO Joseph Quan to learn more about the business, strategic plans, and recent round of funding led by Accel.
