Can I use enlightIn and Atlas together?

Yes. enlightIn keeps doing its job, and Atlas adds a read of the leadership team against the plan on its own assessment.

Does Atlas read email or meetings?

No. Atlas measures leaders with its own assessment and reads the results against the plan, roles and teams.

Why not just use the assessment we already have?

Keep it if it works for you. Many assessments are built to describe one person at one point in time. Atlas reads people against the role, the team and the plan, and updates the read when any of them changes.

Can Atlas look at the whole organisation, not only the top team?

Yes. Atlas can bring every assessment, survey answer, role and the plan together for one team or for every team in the organisation, on the same model and at the same depth, with experts reviewing the read. You can start with the leadership team and widen from there.

Can't we just ask ChatGPT?

A general AI model has no measured data on your people or your plan. Atlas works from your own assessed data and the plan you upload, and a person makes every decision. You can still connect Atlas to the AI tools you already use.

Will Atlas replace our HR team?

No. It gives HR and leaders the same evidence to work from, so people decisions rest on data rather than gut feeling, and the decision stays with a person.

What does an Execution Forecast tell you?

It is an evidence-based assessment of execution risk: which parts of the plan the current team is best and least placed to deliver, based on the assessment, the Clarity Survey, roles and the plan itself. It shows where risk is highest and what to address first. It is not a prediction of results, and it is updated when the plan, the team or the evidence changes.

What is execution intelligence?

Working out whether a company can do what its plan says, finding where it is most likely to get stuck, and testing what to change, with the evidence behind every conclusion. Atlas People is the execution intelligence company. The full definition is in the Atlas glossary.

Is Atlas a personality test?

No. Atlas uses its own assessment as one input, and the product is the read of your team against your plan. The assessment never ranks people; it describes how the work and the people fit.

What does the Atlas assessment measure?

34 behavioural and cognitive constructs, focused on natural behaviour under pressure: role and collaboration fit, trust and decision style, and what gives and drains energy. It uses a forced-choice format with faking detection built in.

How long does Atlas take?

It depends on scope: how many people take part and how much of the plan is shared. Each person spends about 20 to 25 minutes on the assessment and has a one-to-one feedback session, then the team read follows. After that, Atlas updates the read when the plan, the team or the evidence changes.

Do I need to be certified to use Atlas?

Leaders read the results in the portal and can ask questions in plain language, with expert support to turn the read into decisions.

Can Atlas be used for hiring?

Yes. A Match Report reads a candidate against the role and the team they would join, and Atlas supports high-volume hiring too, with a person making every decision. Atlas is not involved in finding or placing candidates, so its read stays separate from the search.

Atlas is bought through one annual agreement, scoped to the people covered, the leaders using it and the organisational work you need. Pricing is scoped to your organisation; see how Atlas is bought.

Q: Does Atlas replace enlightIn?

They do different jobs. enlightIn measures behaviour from everyday work data rather than asking leaders to take an assessment. Atlas answers whether the leadership team can deliver the plan, and keeps that read current.

In short

Consider Atlas People if you need to know whether your leadership team can deliver a specific plan, and want that view updated when the plan, the team or the evidence changes.
Want leadership scores built from meeting, email and chat data? enlightIn is probably the right choice.
enlightIn and Atlas both use AI to help leaders understand their people. Atlas builds its read on its own assessment, puts it in context with the plan, roles and teams, and keeps it current as the plan changes.
Atlas People is not the right fit if you want insight drawn from email, meeting or performance data rather than from an assessment.

Atlas and enlightIn both use AI to give leaders a read on their people. Where they differ is what that read is built on and the question it answers.

enlightIn is a leadership assessment and analytics platform that reads how leaders work from meetings, email, chat and calendars, scores it against behavioural rating scales and turns it into organisational intelligence.

Atlas is an execution intelligence platform for leadership teams. It runs its own assessment, then puts the results in context with your plan, your roles and your teams, so you can see whether your organisation can deliver the plan, what could get in the way, and what to address first. It can read one leadership team or every team in the organisation on the same model, at the same depth. When the plan changes, the read changes with it. It is built for CEOs, boards, investors and HR leaders who own a plan.

How is Atlas different?

1. We read people against your plan

Most tools describe people, teams or the organisation. The harder question is whether that person, in that role, on that team, can carry the strategy you approved last quarter.

Atlas starts from the plan. The plan is modelled; the organisation is assumed. Atlas replaces the assumption with evidence, reading each leader against the role, the team around them and what the plan demands of both.

2. We read the whole organisation, not a sample

One person can interview a handful of leaders and read a few reports. Past that, the work has to be sampled.

Atlas brings every assessment, survey answer, role and the plan together, across every team, and analyses them at the same depth, with experts reviewing the read. One method from a single team to the whole organisation, so results can be compared across teams, units and countries.

3. We measure people with our own assessment

Atlas adds a direct measure of how your leaders behave under pressure, from its own 34-construct assessment with faking detection built in.

That gives every leader a consistent measure of every leader on the same model, read against the same plan.

4. Your read doesn't end up on a shelf

Assessment reports are often read once, discussed in a debrief and filed. Six months later the plan has moved, people have changed roles, and the report describes an organisation that no longer exists.

Atlas keeps the intelligence running. It starts with an Execution Forecast, keeps the baseline, records what changed and reforecasts when the plan, the team or the evidence moves.

5. Built for European leadership teams

Customer data is hosted and processed in the EU, the assessment and reports run in Danish and English, and enterprise teams can sign in with SSO.

Atlas is designed to align with the EU AI Act: the human makes the decision, the evidence behind every conclusion is traceable, and people are never ranked.
