Using Koryo
Once Koryo is installed, here's how to run your first pulse survey, collect responses in Slack, and turn them into insight your leadership can act on.
Creating a survey
From the dashboard, open Surveys → New. You have two formats:
- Engagement survey — a multi-page set drawn from a validated bank of 60+ questions across four categories: Engagement, Diversity & Inclusion, Health & Wellbeing, and Transformation & Change.
- Poll — a single custom question (multiple choice or rating scale) when you just need a quick read.
Pick questions from the bank by category and subcategory, or write your own. Give the survey a title and move on to the audience.
Choosing who receives it
- Send to the whole workspace, or to a specific team or group you've defined.
- Choose the delivery channel: Slack DM (default) or email for teammates not on Slack.
Scheduling & reminders
- Send immediately, or schedule a date and time and Koryo delivers automatically.
- Non-responders get an automatic follow-up reminder after 24 hours.
- Answers are saved page by page, so people can close the survey and finish later.
How employees respond
The survey arrives as a Slack DM. Teammates answer inline using native Slack UI - no external links, typically under 90 seconds. They can reopen the DM to continue a partially-completed survey.
Reading results
Open the survey in the dashboard to see:
AI insights
On the Plus plan, Koryo adds AI analysis on top of the raw scores:
- AI summary — a three-bullet executive read of each survey result.
- Sentiment — a positive / neutral / negative label with a 0-100 score.
- Trend predictions — compares the last two rounds and surfaces significant moves by category.
- Risk flags — context-aware signals such as retention risk or stress, adapted to sample size and team type.
- AI question suggestions — generate questions from a survey title, auto-categorised and editable before adding.
Sharing & exporting
From the results view you can save, copy, email, or share an analysis directly to Slack (rich Block Kit message). For offline reporting or HRIS ingestion, use CSV export.
Managing users & roles
Import your team in one click with bulk Slack user import, then assign roles:

Tips for a good first round
- Start small - one short survey beats a long one nobody finishes.
- Tell your team it's anonymous; reply rates jump when people trust it.
- Run on a regular cadence so the timeline view becomes meaningful.
