Why AnalyticsLab
We publish the numbers people teams quote in the room where the decision is made.
Peoplebox runs the software behind performance reviews, goals, and 1:1s for thousands of companies. AnalyticsLab is the research arm — where we turn what the product actually sees into public, primary, permanent evidence for the people-operations profession. No borrowed benchmarks. No survey-only guesses. Just the data, released in full.
For HR & people leaders
Quote the number in the boardroom — and back it with the source. Every finding traces to a documented methodology and a real sample, so it survives the follow-up question.
For researchers & analysts
Request the raw anonymized dataset, the question bank, and the panel composition. We publish the workbook alongside the headline stat, not just the finding.
For journalists & operators
Free to cite. Free to embed with attribution. Every chart, stat, and pull-quote arrives with the citation line ready to drop into an article or a slide.
“The rooms where people decisions get made deserve a shared set of numbers. That’s what this is.”
