Your current tools solve one type of risk.
Your costliest mistakes come from another.
Your leaders manage two fundamentally different types of risk. But most of your tools only address one.
That is not a feature gap. It is a strategic blind spot.
What your current tools handle
These platforms are good at what they do. They automate admin, centralise records, track compliance, and reduce manual errors. But efficiency is not intelligence.
- ✓ Track applications through a pipeline
- ✓ Send surveys and collect sentiment
- ✓ Assign training and log completions
- ✓ Manage compliance and onboarding
- ✓ Process payroll and leave
What they are missing
This is the risk that costs you most. The wrong hire who looked great on paper. The culture issue your survey could not explain. The training that ticked a box but built no capability.
- ✕ Whether a candidate will thrive in your culture
- ✕ Why teams are misaligned, not just that they are
- ✕ What capability each person actually needs
- ✕ Whether someone is competent, not just trained
- ✕ Where to act next, not just what happened
Compono reduces both types of risk.
Because the biggest cost is not a skipped step in a process. It is making the wrong people decisions and having to fix them later, even when the process ran perfectly.
Built on organisational psychology. Not surveys, sentiment, or gut feel.
Our models are built by organisational psychologists, grounded in validated research, and map individuals against 8 work behaviour types critical for high-performing teams.
That intelligence flows through every decision in the platform: who to hire, how teams work together, what to develop, and where the gaps are.
Individual
Know who someone is, not just what they have done. Preferences, strengths, blind spots.
Team
See how people actually work together. Balance strengths. Spot the gaps.
Company
Map your real culture against your intended one. Know where to act.
All Compono AI models are grounded in validated academic research and evidence-based methodologies.

What happens when you pair psychology with AI?
Most AI tools draw on the internet. Ours draws on decades of validated behavioural science and your organisation's own data.
The result is intelligence that doesn't just sound smart. It knows your people, your culture, and your capability gaps, and gives you answers you can actually act on.
This is not another chatbot. It is a decision-support layer powered by psychometric models, competency frameworks, and real organisational insight.
"Help me write a candidate message that's warm and on-brand."
AI-generated messaging with tone and culture awareness.
"What should I focus on to grow into a leadership role?"
Personal development guidance based on real strengths and gaps.
"Why is our engineering team underperforming?"
Answers grounded in behavioural and culture data, not assumptions.
The world didn't need another system of record. It needed systems of intelligence that understand people holistically, unlock potential, and enable smarter decisions.

Common questions about Compono

What is Compono and how does it differ from traditional HR software?
Compono is a workforce intelligence platform that connects hiring, culture, capability, and competence into one system. Unlike traditional HRIS or HCM platforms that focus on managing processes (payroll, leave, compliance), Compono adds a people intelligence layer using validated psychometrics, behavioural profiling, and culture mapping across 12 dimensions. This helps organisations understand who their people are and make defensible people decisions, not just faster administrative ones.

Work Personality is Compono's proprietary psychometric assessment that maps individuals against 8 work behaviour types: Evaluating, Coordinating, Campaigning, Pioneering, Advising, Helping, Doing, and Creating.
