Kaktus AI

Kaktus AI is a platform designed to boost mental wellbeing in the workplace by using AI to monitor and predict issues linked to productivity.

The company claims its Track organisation, Make all talents feel home, Get things Done, Boost people management, and Celebrate achievements pillars work together in one solution.

The platform uses a feature called KaktusBrain, which is described as computing intelligence that mines user communications to identify early indicators of stress, anxiety, and mental illness. It provides customised real-time prediction diagnosis for current models including work-related stress, mood, depression, and anxiety. This AI model aims to enable early prediction and diagnosis of related mental health challenges.

Kaktus AI offers a smart surveying tool that combines 15 modules with over 500 questions to monitor people's performance at all layers. The system allows employers to build custom, standard, or choose form templates and includes offline features so employees do not have to complete surveys on one set. It also integrates a re-imagined 360 reporting system to make all talents feel home.

The company provides a behavioural science approach that enables leaders to create micro-actions at scale to drive change in their organisation. Employees are empowered with behavioural science nudges to boost performance and adopt healthy behaviour.
