Frequently asked questions
What is Ren?
Ren is an AI coaching agent for people leaders. It lives inside Slack and Teams, coaching your managers through the moments that matter — feedback conversations, 1:1 prep, team dynamics, and more.
How is Ren different from ChatGPT or other AI tools?
Generic AI gives advice — scripts, frameworks, step-by-step guides. Ren coaches with questions, challenging assumptions and helping managers find their own voice. In a blind study, independent raters rated Ren’s coaching at 4× the quality of ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your conversations with Ren are completely private. Insights are never shared with your manager, HR, or anyone else. Managers choose what context to share. Ren is SOC 2 Type II certified with privacy-first design.
How much does Ren cost?
$40/month per manager, billed monthly. 7-day free trial, no credit card required. Enterprise and volume pricing available for teams of 10+.
How long does setup take?
About five minutes. One-click Slack or Teams integration. Managers opt in and start coaching the same day.
What’s the methodology behind Ren?
Ren is built on the Good Authority coaching methodology, developed over 15+ years and used by 100,000+ managers at companies like Panasonic, Amazon, Okta, and TikTok. The core principle: coach with questions, not answers.
Do managers actually use it?
Yes. Managers voluntarily use Ren 8–9 times per week, for 6+ months. No mandated usage, no gamification. Adoption is the metric we’re most proud of.
Can I try it for my team?
Absolutely. We offer a 60-day pilot for teams. Book a demo and we’ll walk you through it.
Does Ren replace human coaches?
No. Ren gives every manager access to coaching — something most companies can only afford for executives. For organizations that also invest in human coaches, Ren extends that impact to every manager, every day.
