About
Mathison is a workplace intelligence platform built to help HR, People Operations, and Talent Acquisition leaders make data-backed decisions around hiring, retention, and workforce equity. The platform enables organizations to assess their current state with a proprietary Opportunity Index—a benchmarking tool that identifies gaps in fair hiring and retention policies—and then develop a tailored Action Plan to address those gaps. Key capabilities include structured interviewing tools to reduce bias, top-of-funnel candidate sourcing (with access to 100,000+ candidates), employee training and engagement tools, and a comprehensive analytics dashboard to track progress and share wins with stakeholders. Mathison supports more than 30 industries and has trained over 15,000 employees in workforce development best practices. The platform is purpose-built for enterprise HR and talent teams looking to operationalize diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) goals across the entire organization. It integrates data, training, sourcing, and reporting into a single platform, eliminating the need to stitch together multiple point solutions. Organizations like Bowery Farming, Wiley, WPP, and Cornerstone OnDemand have used Mathison to advance structured hiring practices, mobilize global teams, and drive measurable DEI outcomes. Mathison is now part of Changeforce, expanding its reach and capabilities.
