New platform combines operations, communication, and performance management for the employees corporate software left behind
ST. LOUIS, July 06, 2026 — Engagedly, the AI-powered talent management platform, today announced the launch of EngagedlyFX a mobile-first platform that unifies communication, workforce operations, employee development, and performance management to help organizations bridge the gap between HR and Operations.
Frontline employees make up nearly 80% of the global workforce, yet HR and Operations have run them from separate systems for decades. HR owns engagement, development, and retention. Operations owns productivity, safety, and execution. Neither team has shared visibility into the other’s data, which leaves managers reacting to problems instead of preventing them. The result is fragmented communication, disconnected employee experiences, and missed opportunities to improve both workforce performance and retention.
“The frontline workforce drives the success of nearly every industry, yet it has historically been underserved by workplace technology,” said Sri Chellappa, CEO/Co-Founder of Engagedly. “With EngagedlyFX, we’re bringing HR and Operations together for the first time, so organizations can run the work, develop their people, and grow the business from one system.”
EngagedlyFX brings both functions into one platform, organized around three pillars and a platform-wide intelligence layer.
Operate runs the work consistently across every location and shift.
Connect keeps every worker aligned, informed, and heard in real time.
Perform develops frontline employees with the same growth opportunities the corporate office has always had.
The Intelligence layer that runs across all three pillars, giving managers and leaders clarity to act on.
The breakthrough is AI-powered automated workflows. Frontline managers lose hours every week to administrative work like assigning training, chasing reminders, and onboarding new hires. EngagedlyFX Workflows lets HR and Operations automate that work by chaining everyday triggers (a new hire is created, a manager changes, an employee moves locations) to actions (assign a form, send a message, award recognition, create a development plan). Marissa AI helps build them, so managers get hours back to spend on the floor with their team.
“Frontline managers have been asked to lead in conditions corporate software was never built for,” said Simon Rakosi, GM of Frontline Solutions at Engagedly. “EngagedlyFX gives them one place to run the work, talk to their team, and grow their people, and it gives workers on the floor the same tools the corporate office has had for years.”
EngagedlyFX builds on Engagedly’s multi-year investment in the frontline workforce, combining capabilities from theEMPLOYEEapp (acquired 2023) and Butterfly.ai (acquired 2025) with Engagedly’s talent management engine in one unified platform.
