LumApps to Expand its Employee Experience Platform with Acquisition of HeyAxel

The acquisition accelerates LumApps’ product and market vision of a personalized and smart Employee Experience Platform

LumApps, a leading Employee Experience Platform, today announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire HeyAxel, a powerful no-code HR automation and employee onboarding solution. The acquisition builds upon LumApps’ continued growth and promises to accelerate the delivery of LumApps’ unique vision: an entirely personalized experience for each employee.

The HeyAxel solution will be fully integrated with LumApps’ Employee Experience Platform. The integration of the two products and teams will accelerate LumApps’ employee journeys roadmap with an additional team of experts plus an adaptable, omnichannel orchestration engine, broadcast capabilities, quizzes, surveys, and HeyAxel’s out-of-the-box journey builder.

“The acquisition of HeyAxel allows us to take an innovative step forward in our product development by adding an easy-to-use journey engine that makes it simple to create personalized, smart, and integrated journeys. Our customers will be able to deliver tailored information and insights to their employees at every stage of their tenure to improve engagement and promote positive experiences,” said Sébastien Ricard, CEO at LumApps.

An Employee Journey is an orchestrated set of communications, information, and activities that are designed to inspire action, promote engagement and maximize the Employee Experience at a certain point in the employee lifecycle. Personalized communications throughout the employee lifecycle can have a significant positive impact on engagement, motivation, and long-term success in the workplace.

With HeyAxel’s no-code tooling, LumApps will develop additional prebuilt journeys making it simple for enterprises to tailor their journeys at each step of the entire employee lifecycle. LumApps customers will also be able to quickly and easily develop their own employee journeys to fit the unique needs of their employees and organizations.

“HeyAxel’s no-code platform enables HR managers to easily create specific journeys like onboarding and career milestones,” said Arnaud Weiss, CEO and Co-founder at HeyAxel. “Joining LumApps will enable us to create additional components for all the various stages throughout an individual’s tenure. This merger signifies the clear convergence in our vision of putting employees at center stage and ensuring cutting-edge and best-in-class journeys in an employee experience platform.”

“HeyAxel provides great value by improving the onboarding journey for our new employees and streamlining work automation. LumApps has been positioned as a leader in its industry by well-known analysts, powering internal communications for many large, global enterprises throughout the world. We are convinced LumApps and HeyAxel together will strengthen the digital employee experience by providing a personalized and holistic solution.” Laura Nepert, Head of Recruiting at Renault Digital.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
