Who We Are:

Customer experience is the key to growth, but other customer experience management platforms ignore that customer-facing teams often hold that key. They’re the people who can take feedback from customers and take immediate action to create change.

At AskNicely, we believe great experiences start with clarity and recognition. That’s why we built a platform focused on uncovering powerful insights, taking action, and motivating teams to deliver their best.

Trusted by over 1,000 service businesses and backed by top investors, AskNicely is on a mission to grow people-powered businesses everywhere.


AskNicely is an AI-powered customer experience platform built for multi-location service businesses.  It captures real-time customer sentiment and proactively turns that into actions that grow reputation and attracts and retains customers.

Cultural Pillars

If, like us, you put a lot of value in culture, lifestyle and opportunity as well as benefits, you'll like what's on offer here (watch this).

Lot’s of people ask about the culture at AskNicely. There are three non-negotiables to what we call “living in the purple”:

  • Be NICE: We believe a great business can be built by nice people that are nice to each other.
  • Play to WIN: Bring your "A" game. We have high standards but favor speed over perfection.
  • Love your FEEDBACK: Get feedback to improve your game and give feedback generously to help others improve theirs.

Studies have shown that, while men will typically apply to a role when they have 60% of listed qualifications, women and marginalized communities tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the listed qualifications. Upholding marginalized communities is central to our core at AskNicely, so we encourage you to apply, even if you don't meet 100% of listed criteria.
