Diversio vs. HRIS

Many assume HRIS platforms cover all workforce needs, including DEI. While strong on administrative tasks, they are not built to measure or drive DEI impact.

Here’s how Diversio delivers more than your traditional HRIS.

Go beyond static data

HRIS platforms collect important administrative data but they weren’t designed to track engagement, diagnose barriers, or optimize performance.

Diversio captures employee sentiment in real-time, identifies inclusion gaps, and benchmarks your progress against 10,000+ organizations globally. Instead of lagging data, you get leading indicators.

Calculating your Inclusion Scoreâ„¢

Data collection & compliance monitoring

HRIS systems manage workforce records. Diversio structures data for ESG, DEI, and board-level reporting that helps organizations stay audit-ready.

Whether you're preparing for SB 54 audits, ESG disclosures, or pay equity reports, Diversio simplifies complex compliance requirements into clear, defensible outputs.

Enterprise-grade security

International compliance
