Amaya: Feature Overview

What is Amaya?

Amaya is an AI assistant that analyzes your organization's people data to surface insights and identify patterns you might otherwise miss. It pulls from engagement surveys, performance reviews, turnover data, and other 15Five tools to answer your questions in plain language—whether you're exploring what's driving engagement trends, comparing team performance, or understanding themes in employee feedback. Amaya does the heavy lifting of data analysis so you can focus on taking action.

HR teams often spend significant time pulling reports, cross-referencing dashboards, and translating metrics into meaningful insights. Amaya helps reduce that effort by:

• Reducing time spent on manual people data analysis

• Making it easier to explore complex questions without building custom reports

• Helping interpret results by connecting signals across tools

• Allowing leaders to focus on what matters most, rather than figuring out where to start

Amaya complements the Insights Dashboard by enabling open-ended exploration beyond predefined questions.

How to use Amaya

1. Click Home from the left-hand navigation. It's also where you lands automatically when you log in
    
2. Type your question in the search bar or click on any of the suggested questions to get started
   
3. Press enter or click to get your insights

With Amaya, you can ask questions like:

• "What’s our headcount by department?"

• "Who are our top performers?"

• "What are employees saying about their managers in recent reviews?"

• "Which factors are most strongly influencing engagement?"

• "How do engagement or performance signals differ by team or department?"

Amaya can summarize patterns, highlight differences between groups, and surface key themes from both quantitative and qualitative data.

How Amaya works

Amaya is powered by a combination of:

• Your organization's people data from 15Five
• Built-in understanding of HR concepts and frameworks
• Context from how data is structured across 15Five tools
• 15Five's knowledge base, including product guidance and best-practice context

Data sources Amaya can use

Amaya can generate insights using data from the following 15Five features (when enabled and available to you):

• Engagement surveys (including eNPS and statement-level responses)
• Best-Self Review® (quantitative and open-text responses)
• Turnover (based on employee termination date and attributes)
• Check-ins and 1-on-1s (high-level signals around usage)
• Employee attributes such as team, department, tenure, and role
• 15Five's knowledge base, including product documentation and HR best-practice guidance

How it responds

When you ask a question, Amaya:

1. Identifies the relevant data sources
2. Analyzes trends, patterns, and outliers
3. Returns a clear, natural-language response

Where appropriate, Amaya may suggest follow-up questions to help you explore further.

What to expect when using Amaya

Amaya is designed to support your decision-making with these principles in mind:

• Amaya provides insights, not decisions – Responses offer analysis and context to inform your judgment, not prescriptive actions
• Context matters – Interpret results within your organization's unique culture, goals, and circumstances
• Data quality affects accuracy – Insights are only as reliable as the underlying data available in 15Five
• Sample size impacts reliability – Smaller data sets (such as responses from a small team) may produce limited or less meaningful insights
• Continuous improvement – Amaya is evolving and may not yet support every question or data combination you explore

We recommend using Amaya's outputs as a starting point for deeper exploration and conversation with your team.
