Perform better by listening better
Deepler doesn’t come from the world of surveys, but from change management. We saw good plans fail because the people who had to make them work were not heard. That is why we build software that turns listening into action.

It started with change programmes that stalled
Deepler was founded in 2021 by four change managers. In change programmes we kept seeing the same thing: the strategy was clear and the plan was in place, but on the shop floor it never got off the ground. Around 70% of changes in organisations fail due to a lack of support among employees.
It was rarely a lack of willingness. Employees were often the first to see where things were stuck, but that knowledge reached the decision-makers too late or not at all. And if there was a survey, the report ended up in a drawer.
We wanted to do something about that. Not with yet another questionnaire, but with a way of working in which listening and acting come together. In our very first year we pitched Deepler at Web Summit in Lisbon and landed our first assignment with a large multinational.
An organisation only truly performs when leaders and employees know what the other needs. That starts with listening, and it only works if you act on it.
Leon Oswald, CIO and co-founder
Our vision
Organisations perform better when they listen better: to employees, to teams and to what happens between people. And when they act on it straight away.
Our mission
Turning listening into action, so that every voice contributes to better performance.
In practice
Two teams, the same workplaces, a very different verdict
How VolkerWessels used Deepler Research to see how much influence managers have on their team’s experience.
Deepler Research · engagement survey
“A great result of using Deepler for our employee engagement survey was the insight we gained into the influence of managers on how employees experience their work. It is an example we still use regularly to create awareness of the impact of leadership. Deepler has given us not only insights into engagement, but also valuable starting points for leadership development.”
Lola den Daas
HR advisor, VolkerWessels
What the survey showed
Appreciation of the workplaces
The manager’s attitude, conversations and behaviour colour the experience of the whole team.
Illustrative representation of the outcome, without exact scores.
What we believe in
Three convictions from our time as change managers. You will find them in everything we do and develop.
Listening without action costs trust
Every question you ask creates an expectation. That is why follow-up is built into everything we make: AI that suggests concrete actions to managers, and working groups that take on improvements themselves.
The shop floor often already knows
Employees see sooner than anyone where things are stuck. We make sure that knowledge reaches the decision-makers quickly, without anyone having to read a thick report.
Change needs support
Change imposed from above rarely lasts. When people have a say and help build it, it becomes their change. That is how it sticks.
What you can expect from us
Every organisation and every manager has different drivers. That is why we don’t promise one thing, but six.
Results you can prove
Better performance is the goal, so we also measure whether it works. Repeat measurements show per team and over time what your improvement actions deliver.
Fast from insight to action
Employees respond in two minutes, the results appear straight away in your dashboard and AI suggests concrete actions to managers. No more waiting months for a report.
Careful and reliable
Scientifically grounded questions, anonymity you can explain and data that stays GDPR compliant within the EEA. With a clear approach in fixed steps.
Every voice counts
Every employee gets questions that fit their work and sees what happens with their input. That way everyone feels heard, including the quieter colleagues.
A familiar face by your side
You work with a Deepler expert who gets to know your organisation, from the set-up to interpreting the results with your management team. More than 400 organisations went before you.
Room for innovation
Four suites you combine into what your organisation needs, on a platform that grows with new questions. That is how you build an organisation that keeps learning.
From smart questionnaire to international platform
What started as a smart questionnaire has grown into a platform with four suites: Deepler Research for employee and customer research, Deepler 360 for leadership and development, Deepler Journeys for the entire employee journey and Deepler Culture for organisational culture. More than 400 organisations in 11 countries now work with it, and over 100,000 employees have already shared their input through Deepler.
Our roots in change management have remained. With a team of 33 colleagues and 24 international implementation partners, we make sure there is always a Deepler expert at your side: during the set-up, when interpreting the results with management or teams, and throughout the improvement. Software and people, because a tool alone changes nothing.
We don’t believe in annual reports that disappear into a drawer. Organisations that truly want to grow listen continuously and act immediately.
