CPOHQ + Knoetic AI, founded in 2020, operates a dual-platform business serving Chief People Officers and HR teams. The company has secured $50 million in funding to develop what it describes as a 'Second Brain' for people leaders. Its model combines a professional network with a data analytics product, positioning itself at the intersection of community and quantitative insight within the Human Resources sector.
The CPOHQ platform functions as a network for over 2,000 Chief People Officers from companies including Box, Brex, Figma, Lyft, Notion, and OpenAI. It crowdsources best practices, playbooks, and templates through a library of more than 30,000 forum discussions and 800 polls. The company also hosts curated executive events, such as the CPOHQ Elevate conference, to facilitate in-person knowledge sharing among this community.
Knoetic AI represents the company's data analytics arm, providing organizations with millions of data points and insights on people operations. This product is designed to complement the community-driven intelligence of CPOHQ by offering a more structured, analytical layer to workforce decision-making. The company operates within the SaaS/Software and Human Resources verticals.
