Trusted by leaders and HR professionals at more than 60,000 companies
Start a private conversation
Start a private back‑and‑forth with employees without learning who they are. Turn on Direct Anonymous Replies, optionally collect an email for follow‑ups — we store it securely and don’t expose it to managers — and keep the thread going until you have what you need. When the answer helps everyone, publish a public reply to show progress without revealing identities.

How it works
Enable Direct Anonymous Replies
Turn it on for your box. Set whether leaving an email is optional or required for follow‑ups.
Ask and Answer, Privately
Reply to the person, ask clarifying questions, share next steps. Their identity stays hidden. Emails used for follow‑ups are stored securely and not shown to you.
Close the Loop
Mark the case resolved, or publish a public response so everyone sees the outcome.
Keep the conversation going
Direct anonymous replies
Start a private thread with the person who submitted. Get context, confirm facts, unblock decisions. Identity stays protected throughout.
Collect emails privately
Ask for an email so you can follow up, optionally require it. We encrypt the address and never expose it to box owners or managers.
Private reply threads
Continue the back‑and‑forth until you have what you need. Keep tone respectful, keep details clear, keep identities off the table.
Public replies and transparency
When an answer helps the wider group, publish a public reply. Show progress, reduce repeated questions, build trust.
Ownership and status
Assign an owner, set a status, and move the conversation to done. Nothing gets dropped.
Clear patterns
Use analytics to spot common themes across conversations. Export CSVs for audits and monthly reviews, without exposing identities.
