Its product pages describe three modules with figures: Employee Journeys build scalable journey maps from new hire to former employee and report a 150% higher completion rate than the industry average, with 231,398 employees enrolled globally; the analytics page promises easy-to-read dashboards for adoption, engagement and content performance; and task management replaces email threads and printed documents with assignable tasks, templates, built-in workflows and hierarchical permissions.
Speakap lists offices in New York, Amsterdam, London, Cologne and Brussels. Its customer stories name A&M Group, which launched an integrated internal communications platform in 6 weeks, and STULZ USA. On its pricing page, a construction customer says it moved from verbal cascades and posters to Speakap and counted 52,000 sessions and 5,700 contact moments in the first nine months.
The security page states ISO 27001:2013 and GDPR measures, and says customer data resides in a data centre in either the EU or the US, with no transfer between them. Pricing is not published: a free demo comes first, then an offer based on the needs described, and Speakap says customers are up and running in as little as 15 days after signing a contract.
