Challenge

RenewBuy, a fast-growing insurtech platform with over 2,500 employees in 100+ cities, was facing high voluntary attrition and fragmented engagement. Annual surveys weren’t enough to capture real-time sentiment, and HR teams were losing valuable time to manual processes. Employees felt their voices weren’t heard consistently, and the organization risked losing top talent.

  • Low response rates: Fewer than 45% engaged with traditional surveys.

  • Geographically dispersed workforce: Spanning 100+ cities across India.

  • Data delays: Actionable insights lagged behind employee needs.

  • Trust gap: Lack of continuous acknowledgment led to attrition risks.

Amara.ai was deployed as a continuous listening platform, seamlessly integrating into RenewBuy’s HR systems. The AI-powered assistant provided employees with always-on feedback channels and managers with predictive insights.
