Questions

Frequently asked.

Still unsure about something? The answers below cover the essentials, and Support is one click away.

Who is Verings for?

Any manager, at any level, who needs to understand what’s really going on in their organisation or function. It’s especially useful at turning points: a new role, a post-acquisition integration, a turnaround, fast growth, or persistent issues that are hard to name.

Will my team’s answers really be anonymous?

Yes. You never see an individual’s responses, not once. Answers are aggregated into segments, and names and emails are used only to deliver invitations, never joined to the content of any answer you can see.

Can I see what a specific person said?

No. That’s a deliberate, structural limit, not a setting you or we can switch off. It’s what makes people candid, and candor is what makes the diagnosis worth having.

What is the minimum-N gate?

Before any results reach you, every segment cut is checked against a minimum group size. Any cut too small to protect an individual is suppressed or merged into a larger group, so no one can be identified by narrowing the filters.

How many people should I invite?

Enough that segments clear the minimum-N threshold and the picture is representative, often a few dozen and up. You can invite anyone relevant: your team, internal customers, even partners. More voices make the segmented view richer.

How long does an interview take?

Usually 10 to 15 minutes. Each interview is conversational but capped: a shared core everyone answers, plus a few role-adaptive follow-ups. People can complete it in one sitting.

Do I have to type my answers?

No — there’s a Speak button. Voice is handled entirely by your own browser or device and never reaches our servers; the transcribed text appears for you to edit, and nothing is submitted until you press Send.

Can I change what gets asked?

You shape the issues and topics the diagnostic explores, adding, dropping, and re-weighting them, and you can run a test interview to refine the scope. The AI authors the exact question wording so every question stays neutral and never leads the respondent.

Can I preview the interview before sending it?

Yes. You take a test interview yourself, exactly as your people will experience it, and give feedback until the guide asks the right things. Nothing is sent until you’re satisfied.

Which functions does it cover?

Finance is the deepest, with a curated framework built around close cycle, forecasting, controls, and business-partnering. Other functions are supported through a general operating-model framework, and curated coverage expands over time.

Where is our data stored, and do you train AI on it?

All data stays in the EU region. We use AI providers under zero-retention, no-training terms, so your organisation’s data is never retained or used to train models. See the Security and Privacy pages for detail.

How much does it cost?

Verings is self-serve and priced per diagnostic, based on how many people you invite, with a minimum per campaign. You’ll see the exact price before you launch, so there’s no surprise bill. Team pulses are priced separately: the first cycles are free, then a simple subscription per pulse.

What do I actually receive?

Two things. A diagnostic readout: a prioritised, segmented, evidence-backed map of the issues with dissent preserved. And a drafted intervention plan that sequences initiatives into quick wins and structural moves, each tied to an issue and a measure.

Can I ask follow-up questions about the readout?

Yes. The results page includes a chat grounded only in the guarded, aggregated readout and plan. It can explain and connect what’s there, but it has no access to raw responses or transcripts and will never attribute anything to an individual.

What is a team pulse, and how is it different from the diagnostic?

The diagnostic is a one-off, deep engagement: scoped interviews across the organisation, a segmented readout, and a drafted plan. A team pulse is its companion: a short, anonymous check-in one team answers in under five minutes, on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly cycle. Four quick scores build trends, open answers come back as themes, and you can pause or change the cadence anytime. Use the diagnostic to understand deeply; use the pulse to keep listening in between.

Is the team pulse anonymous too?

Yes, same trust model. You see trends, themes, and counts, never who said what, and a cycle’s content is only shown once at least three people have responded. The one deliberate exception: if someone flags something urgent, it’s passed to you straight away, anonymised, so it can’t wait a cycle.
