Maintaining employee morale is often much easier said than done in large organizations with upwards of thousands of people on the payroll. One of the startups working to ease the task is Glint Inc., which raised $27 million from a group of investors co-led by Meritech Capital Partners and Bessemer Venture Partners this morning to fuel its efforts.

The cash will be used to fund the development of new features for the outfit’s namesake cloud service, which enables HR departments to survey employees about their job satisfaction using a set of standardized questions. Responses are then fed into an artificial intelligence that automatically singles out areas of interest. If, for instance, a large percentage of a company’s workers say that they’d like to have more insight into how important decisions are made, Glint will provide best practices on how to improve executive transparency.

The service also lets HR professionals analyze survey responses on their own through a sleek data visualization console that is designed to help uncover deeper productivity patterns. It provides the ability to filter survey responses by department and identify what each unit head must do to help their employees become more productive, whether that’s handing out more promotions or doing a better job of acknowledging good work. Progress can be tracked using a built-in monitoring engine that reviews how poll answers change over time for signs of improvement. It also doubles as a sort of early warning system for find employee populations that are experiencing declining job satisfaction. According to Glint, the feature makes it possible to spot and correct engagement problems before valuable personnel start jumping ship.

The startup’s value proposition has won over numerous large organizations since it launched in 2013, including United Airlines, Inc., Alphabet Inc. subsidiary Nest and several other major tech companies. Today’s funding should help widen the adoption of its service even further.
