Calmworks

Qualitative research, without the bottleneck.

Calmo is an intelligent interviewer that runs voice conversations with your employees, customers, and users at scale, then turns what they say into structured reports you keep editing inside your own CalmOS space.

How it works

Three moves. From voices to a report you keep.

A team member in a focused Calmo voice interview
01

Calmo interviews your people

You scope one question. We send a link. Your employees, customers, or users each have a 15-minute voice conversation on their own schedule. Warm, adaptive, AI-disclosed upfront.

Voice-first. Text fallback when needed.
02

We synthesize qual + quant

Every conversation is transcribed, themed, and cross-referenced. Claims are timestamped to source audio. Quantitative signals sit next to qualitative evidence: quotes, friction points, verbatim.

Themes, quotes, journey maps, dashboards.
03

You own an editable report

Findings land in your CalmOS space as an interactive report you keep editing. Annotate, comment, share with the board, export to PDF. The report keeps improving after we leave.

Lives in your space. Yours to edit forever.
What you can learn

Anywhere qualitative matters, at scale.

Employee culture audits

Thirty voices across an org, parallel private interviews. Find the real signal that engagement surveys flatten.

n=47 · 5 functions

Customer discovery

Why did they churn, why did they stay, what would they pay for. Real conversation beats Likert scales.

Attributed quotes, themed

Post-acquisition integration

Surface friction across two merged cultures before it calcifies into attrition. Map journey by tenure.

Journey maps + sentiment arcs

Product feedback loops

Monthly voice interviews with power users feed your roadmap with primary research, not support-ticket noise.

Continuous, not annual

Annual reports with primary research

IPO-bound companies and boards get a chapter built from real voices, not consultant synthesis of consultant synthesis.

Board-ready, editable

Sustainability and compliance

Article 10 data governance by default. Interview suppliers, staff, community partners for ESG reporting with audit trail.

EU AI Act, audit-logged

Why not a survey?

vs. Surveys

150-question form with 15% response rate and no depth

15-minute voice interview with 80%+ completion and follow-ups

vs. Focus groups

Loudest voice in a room of six dominates the readout

Thirty parallel private conversations. No room politics.

vs. Consulting firm

Four to six weeks, €40k+ fees, a PDF that ages on a shelf

Three days, structured report, editable inside your own space

vs. AI chatbots

Text-only, generic prompts, abandoned halfway through

Voice-first, adaptive pacing, warmth, trust loop built in

The trust loop

A voice engine tuned for real conversations.

State of the art under the hood. Sub-second latency, 300+ tokens per second, warm adaptive pacing. Respondents feel heard, not interrogated.

  • Voice confirm

    60% of the time Calmo confirms key claims back in voice. Fast, low friction.

  • Visual card

    30% of the time a lightweight card surfaces for the respondent to nod or correct.

  • Deep probe

    10% of the time Calmo probes harder: contradictions, emotional weight, specific examples.

EU AI Act

Audit-ready by default.

Articles 4, 10, and 52 are covered out of the box, not as a separate compliance product we sell you later.

Article 4

Literacy by default

Every interview opens with an AI disclosure. Your team is trained to interpret Calmo reports as part of the engagement.

Article 10

Data governance, logged

Every response, prompt, and model call is logged for audit. EU data residency by default. One-click lineage export.

Article 52

AI disclosure, always

Calmo identifies itself as AI at the start of every conversation. Respondents consent with that knowledge.

Common questions.

As many as you have respondents. Each interview is a separate session. Thirty people on thirty schedules over three days is normal. The upper limit is your participant pool.

Either way works. By default, responses are attributed to named participants who consent upfront. Anonymous and aggregate-only modes are supported too and can be switched on per engagement. The implementation is fast.

The voice engine supports the major European languages natively (Finnish, Swedish, English, German, French, Spanish, Italian). Report generation can be produced in any language you prefer.

Articles 4 (literacy), 10 (data governance), and 52 (disclosure) are covered by default. AI disclosure at the start of every interview. Every response logged for audit. Data stays in EU residency.

It depends on scope (how many interviews, how many themes, how quickly you want the report). We scope it together in a free diagnostic. A typical culture audit with 30 interviews and a structured report lands well below what a consulting firm would charge for the same depth.
