The solution comes at a time when diversity is decreasing across many sectors; burnout is increasing; female labor force participation is at its lowest point since 1988; and 1 in 3 women are considering leaving their jobs. Gender inclusivity and the advancement of women is a driver of corporate profitability and improved customer experience.
“We are pioneering EqualTech™ — technology that enables equal opportunity,” said Alphy CEO and founder Julian Guthrie. “Diversity and inclusion is a $15.4 billion global market that has been largely overlooked by innovative new technologies. Legacy solutions are not working, and new tools are needed.”
Guthrie added, “We are introducing a new way of thinking about the advancement of women at work, school, and home. We’ve built a suite of tools for women to connect and advance themselves, and for companies from all sectors to better recruit, develop, and retain female talent.”
The Alphy solution includes:
- Daily original stories, interviews, and news
- Live Talks with leading luminaries of our day
- Reimagined learning tracks created by Alphy’s award-winning writers and editors
- Original learning games offering friendly team competitions
- Social networking in a supportive environment
- A jobs and internship board connecting to Alphy’s talent pipeline
And
- AlphyReflect, a breakthrough AI-assistive communication-strengthening tool
“Alphy is a community built around innovative AI, shared experiences and goals, and storytelling that advances women,” said Alphy CTO Ted Selker. “Our AI tool, AlphyReflect, helps individuals strengthen their written communication. It’s a mirror for reflecting, not an auto-correct or override solution.”
Guthrie added, “Alphy delivers a reimagined approach to diversity and inclusion in an easy-to-use platform that offers measurable results to companies. We at Alphy are all about human capital fulfillment and optimization.”
