Interact, a leading provider of employee experience (EX) software, has announced its 2026 Winter Launch, introducing a series of new capabilities designed to help internal communications teams move beyond basic engagement reporting and toward measurable business impact.
The launch follows Interact’s recognition as the top-ranked platform in the 2026 ClearBox Consulting Intranet and Employee Experience Platforms Report, where it was praised for product maturity, feature depth, and innovation in AI. Building on that momentum, the Winter Launch focuses on turning employee communications into a strategic driver of performance.

From Engagement Metrics to Strategic Intelligence
A key highlight of the release is Ask Analytics, an agentic AI capability currently available through early access. Instead of manually compiling reports, communicators can now ask natural-language questions and receive data-backed insights. This allows them to walk into executive meetings prepared with clear evidence linking communications efforts to business outcomes, shifting the conversation from clicks and views to measurable organizational performance.
AI That Reduces Friction, Not Adds Noise
While many platforms emphasize AI features, Interact is taking a focused approach by introducing tools that directly reduce busywork. The new native Workday integration minimizes system-switching, allowing employees to access relevant information without disrupting their workflow.

To further enhance accessibility and reach, Interact has introduced several features aimed at improving content delivery:
According to CEO Simon Dance, the goal is to create an AI-native platform that unifies community, alignment, recognition, and self-service into a single system. With this Winter Launch, Interact reinforces its commitment to removing friction, increasing clarity, and delivering measurable performance across the enterprise.
