Your workforce carries financial risk
most organisations cannot see.
Catalyst is a bespoke intelligence platform that turns your people data into the same strategic command centre your CFO has for finance — customised to your exact organisation, your KPIs, and your leadership priorities.
Illustrative data from a 2,500-employee simulation — your numbers will be yours.
This is not another SaaS product.
Most workforce tools are built for HR teams. Catalyst is built for boards and leadership teams — and shaped entirely around your organisation.
| Topic | Most workforce tools | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|
| Workforce data | Dashboards of historical averages | Predictive risk scores — flight, burnout, succession — per person |
| Customisation | One-size product with limited config | Bespoke build: your KPIs, your org structure, your terminology |
| Financial link | People metrics stay in HR | Every risk signal priced — cost exposure in dollars on every screen |
| Audience | HR managers and people teams | CEO, CFO, CHRO, Board — built for the executive table |
| Decision support | Reactive — report after things happen | Proactive — Scenario Lab models interventions before budget is committed |
| Board reporting | Two days of slide-building by the CHRO | Auto-generated Board Briefs — 10 minutes to review, not 48 to build |
| Role context | Generic views for everyone | CEO lens, CFO lens, CHRO lens, BU Head lens — each sees their priorities |
Eight modules. One command centre.
Built around your organisation.
Each module is configured to your data, your terminology, and the questions your leadership team actually needs to answer.
Control Tower
Your executive command centre
Five headline numbers the moment you open the app: total headcount, predicted exits over 12 months, average flight risk, critical roles exposed, and total cost exposure. Risk alerts surface only what needs attention today — not a 40-page report.
Workforce Health
Four vital signs tracked continuously
Flight risk, engagement, burnout, and manager effectiveness — across every department and every location globally. High burnout predicts exits 3–6 months before they happen. This is the leading indicator most organisations ignore.
Talent Risk
Individual-level flight risk, at scale
Every employee has a flight risk score, performance tier, and succession status. Filter for top performers with high flight risk — the people you absolutely cannot afford to lose. Each critical role without a successor is flagged and costed.
Skills Intelligence
Can you execute your strategy?
Skills gap analysis mapped to your actual workforce. AI disruption exposure shows which roles are most vulnerable to automation — not generic benchmarks. The Upskilling ROI tab models training cost vs external hiring for every gap.
Org Effectiveness
Structural health diagnostics
Span of control — how many direct reports each manager has — is the single best proxy for management quality and burnout risk. When a manager has 15+ direct reports, engagement drops and attrition follows. Catalyst flags this before it becomes a problem.
Workforce Finance
Every people decision is a financial decision
Payroll analytics, compensation health, and cost exposure — all in one view. Employees below 0.85 comp ratio are paid 15% below market and are statistically likely to leave within 6 months. This connects retention risk directly to finance data.
Scenario Lab
Model before you commit budget
Model workforce interventions — comp raises, manager training, wellbeing programmes, headcount changes — and see projected impact before you spend a dollar. Watch predicted exits drop and ROI calculate in real time. This is the business case you bring to the CFO.
Board Briefs
Auto-generated. Role-appropriate. Done.
Catalyst auto-generates the board people update: key metrics, risk alerts, and strategic narrative — formatted for a non-HR audience. The CHRO doesn't spend two days building slides. They spend 10 minutes reviewing what Catalyst produced.
A glimpse inside the platform
From data to decision.
In real time.
See what's coming
Predictive risk scoring per employee — flight risk, burnout trajectory, engagement decline. Know 3–6 months before it happens.
Quantify the cost
Every signal is translated into a dollar figure. Attrition exposure, productivity loss, comp misalignment — all on the same page as your financials.
Model before you commit
The Scenario Lab lets you run any intervention — comp raise, training programme, headcount change — and see projected impact before budget is committed.
Communicate at board level
Auto-generated Board Briefs tailored to each executive's mandate. The CHRO doesn't build slides anymore. They review what Catalyst already wrote.
Four lenses. One platform.
Personalised to every decision-maker.
Catalyst doesn't show everyone the same dashboard. Each executive sees the intelligence that matters to their specific mandate — configured at deployment.
The problem
You can't afford to walk into a board meeting and learn about a talent exodus that's been building for six months. You need to know what's happening in your workforce before it costs you strategy execution.
What Catalyst does
Catalyst's Control Tower gives you five headline numbers in real time. Critical alerts surface only what needs executive attention. The Board Brief writes itself.
The problem
People decisions are already financial decisions. Attrition, absenteeism, low engagement, comp misalignment — all of it hits the P&L. But you're flying blind because workforce data never reaches the finance layer.
What Catalyst does
Workforce Finance translates every risk signal into dollars. Attrition cost exposure, engagement productivity loss, compensation health, absenteeism cost — all quantified, all live.
The problem
HR has always had the data. The problem is it never came with the business case. Every people initiative dies in committee because no one can quantify the risk of inaction.
What Catalyst does
Catalyst gives you the language and numbers to operate at the executive table. Flight risk, succession gaps, burnout signals — all translated into financial exposure, ready for the CFO's review.
The problem
You're accountable for team performance but you get data weeks late, aggregated at the wrong level, with no indication of what's causing the problem or what to do about it.
What Catalyst does
Your Catalyst view shows only your people, your risks, your capacity. Team performance, execution friction, burnout signals, and capacity utilisation — at the level where you can act.
What leaders say
Catalyst is currently in deployment with select organisations. Client stories will appear here.
