Description of GAIS
What is GAIS?
GAIS is a digital employee survey platform for measuring employee well-being, engagement, and the work environment. It collects and analyzes employee feedback, turning survey results into clear, actionable insights.
How GAIS supports employee well-being and the work environment
GAIS gives HR teams and leaders an up-to-date view of employee well-being across the organization. Surveys can be tailored to each organization’s needs and circumstances, while results can be analyzed at multiple levels, including by department or team. This makes it clear where action is needed, and where things are already working well.
Each employee receives a personalized report, encouraging everyone to take an active role in workplace well-being. Many organizations also use insights from these reports to support employee development and performance conversations.
From compliance requirement to strategic tool
GAIS also provides a comprehensive solution for workplace environment and risk assessments (WRA/ APV) supporting organizations in meeting relevant legal requirements and recommendations. The platform makes assessment data easy to analyze, helping teams launch initiatives, assign responsibility, and follow up on action plans directly in GAIS.
Fast implementation and continuous insights
GAIS is quick to implement, and real-time benchmarking enables organizations to compare their results with relevant benchmarks, including industry-specific data.

What do you like most?
Looking back on my many years at GLS, our collaboration with GAIS is one of the things I will remember most fondly. Over the years, GAIS has been much more than just a supplier. We have built a strong partnership in which we have shared experiences, challenged one another professionally and, together, found solutions that have made our work on wellbeing, engagement and leadership even stronger. What I have particularly valued is the trust and mutual respect that have characterised our collaboration. We’ve been able to have fruitful discussions when things went to plan – but also honest and constructive conversations when things were difficult or needed rethinking. And it is precisely in this regard that GAIS has proved to be a strong partner: always curious, professional and focused on how we could create even more value together. For me, this has been a partnership where professionalism and humanity go hand in hand. GAIS has not merely provided a tool, but has been an active sparring partner in our ongoing efforts to create a strong workplace. I can therefore wholeheartedly recommend GAIS as a partner. Thank you for many years of strong collaboration, fruitful discussions, professional challenges and – not least – for always helping us find solutions together.

What do you like most?
I particularly like how user-friendly and intuitive GAIS is. The platform is easy to navigate and makes it straightforward to work on our annual well-being survey. At the same time, I find that GAIS integrates really well with our performance review process, which creates a good sense of coherence in our work on employee wellbeing and development. I’d also like to highlight the team at GAIS, who are always incredibly helpful, committed and welcoming. You really get the sense that they’re keen to help and ensure we get the most out of the platform.
What do you like least?
There isn’t actually anything specific I can point to that I like the least. GAIS works really well for what we use the platform for, and on the occasions when we’ve had questions or needed help, the team have been quick to respond and committed to providing support. If I had to name one thing, it would probably be continued development and inspiration on how we can get even more value out of the platform and the data it provides us with.
What business-critical problems do you feel GAIS solves?
GAIS has helped us create a simple and structured process for our annual well-being survey. This makes it easy to gather staff feedback across the organisation and provides us with a solid and consistent data set that we can then use to inform our work. At the same time, we’ve found there’s a strong link between the well-being survey and our performance review process, which supports our ongoing work on well-being and development.

Should I write something? Well, I suppose I should mention that we occasionally encounter technical issues, which can sometimes result in some data being incorrect – but the GAIS consultants usually help us sort things out quickly.
What business-critical problems do you feel GAIS solves?
GAIS helps to shed light on key areas. We receive a wealth of data that we can utilise as required. We often say that the survey is not about answers, but about responsibility. We have a responsibility to listen to our staff and take their feedback seriously.

About GAIS
GAIS is a software company with a clear ambition: to make it easy for every organization to understand and improve employee well-being.
We don’t believe employee surveys should be treated as a stand-alone HR exercise that ends with a report.
Employee well-being is shaped every day, through conversations between employees and leaders and through decisions that lead to meaningful action. That’s why we created a platform that makes results accessible across the organization and empowers everyone to take responsibility for what should be preserved and what needs to change.
GAIS helps private companies and public-sector organizations measure and improve employee well-being, engagement, and the work environment.
The platform brings together engagement and well-being surveys, workplace assessments, employee satisfaction surveys, and leadership feedback. But the greatest value comes after the survey. Results are transformed into clear insights, automated reports tailored to relevant stakeholders, and practical tools for dialogue, prioritization, and follow-up.
What sets GAIS apart is its combination of a strong foundation grounded in evidence and research, an intuitive user experience, and an inclusive approach that makes employee well-being a shared responsibility.
GAIS is designed for organizations that want methodological rigor without unnecessary complexity. Customers can get started quickly, access results immediately, and manage the entire process themselves - with onboarding, support, and expert guidance available when needed.
More than 1,000 companies and organizations have already used GAIS. What they share is a desire to listen more closely to their employees and create improvements that make a tangible difference in everyday working life.
That is the essence of GAIS: making it easier to move from measurement to meaning, and from insight to action.
