Ask your team. Listen. Act.
Anonymous pulse surveys your people answer on their phones in five minutes — and a result that turns into an action.
- Results from five answers
- One action per survey
- Compared with the last run
How a pulse survey runs
- 1
Start
Pick a template or build the questionnaire yourself: leadership, workload, recognition, team, communication, safety — plus the eNPS question. Set the period, schedule it, done.
- 2
Answer
All active employees get the invitation in the app. One question per screen, in German or English, without a name.
- 3
Read the result
After the survey closes, PlanState computes the result once. Questions with at least five answers are shown — below that we show no result.
- 4
Set an action
One action, one owner, one date. Share the result and the action with the team — that is what makes surveys credible.
What the employer can see — and what not
Answers are stored without names. In PlanState the employer sees no individual answers, only results from five people onward, and only after the survey has closed. We store only that someone took part — not when and not what. Employees read this before the first question, in German and English.
- No free text, no evaluation of individuals
- No result below five answers per question
- Privacy notice for employees built into the app
What's included
Templates and your own statements
Eight templates for engagement, leadership & team, and everyday life & culture — or your own statements, answerable from 1 to 6.
Results at a glance
Overall agreement, intention to stay, eNPS — and each question in detail, with the distribution of answers.
See the change
From the second run on, each figure shows what changed since last time — in points, not as a gut feeling.
Team page and action
Share the result with all who were invited, together with the action that follows from it.
Reminders and participation
A reminder every three days, three at most. You see whether fewer or more than half have answered — not an exact number.
Results by department and location
From five answers per group, one dimension at a time — department or location.
Available as an add-on
Surveys are an add-on to any PlanState plan. The price depends on the number of employees.

No. The survey is answered in the PlanState app, the same place the schedule is read. That way each person can answer once — and the answer is still stored without a name.
Then PlanState shows no result — neither for the survey as a whole nor for a single question that fewer than five people answered.
Whether an employee survey is subject to co-determination depends on its design and context. That is for the employer to settle — ideally before the first run.
Yes. You build the questionnaire from the library or add your own statements. While a run is open, its questions stay fixed. A changed question text is shown as a break in the comparison, not as a line.
Yes — but only as a group value from five answers within that department or location, and only one of the two at a time. Within one view, groups are hidden so that no hidden value can be worked out from the ones shown. In very small teams a group value can still allow conclusions; employees are told so before the first question. The team page for employees never shows group values.
