Q1 2026 Launch: Company Profiles and User Profiles (Beta)

Company Profiles and User Profiles are two new features now available in beta in the CultureBot web app. Together, they give your team a centralized, living resource for company culture and a richer way to get to know the people behind the work.

Beta notice: Both features are currently available in the CultureBot web app only. They have not yet launched inside Slack or Microsoft Teams. Integration with those platforms is coming later this year.

What are Company Profiles and User Profiles?

Company Profiles let admins build out a central home for everything that defines your organization: your mission and values, behavioral frameworks, community channels, ERGs, and key resources. Think of it as a culture hub that lives right inside CultureBot.

Company Profile Example

User Profiles give every employee a personal page in your company directory where they can share information about themselves, from professional basics like their title and department to personal details like interests, pronouns, and languages. Admins can also add custom questions that appear on every employee's profile.

The two features are designed to work together. Admins configure the structure through Company Profile settings, and employees bring it to life by filling out their own profiles.

Setting Up Your Company Profile (Admins)

Mission and Vision

In Company Profile settings, you can add your company mission and vision statements. These appear on the public-facing About page that all employees can view.

Behaviors and Values

In Company Profile settings, you can create multiple behavioral categories to capture what matters most at your company. A few examples of how customers are using this:

Core values
Guiding behaviors
Quarterly themes or goals
Company mantras and key phrases

Each category can hold as many items as you need, giving employees a one-stop place to learn what your culture is built around.

Community Directory

The community directory is where you can list out channels and groups employees might want to join or know about. You can manage this in Company Profile settings and organize entries into categories:

Special interest channels: Pets, book clubs, hobbies, or anything people rally around
CultureBot feature channels: Chat Café, employee intros, or other CultureBot-specific channels that live in their own dedicated spaces
Employee Resource Groups (ERGs): List each ERG with the relevant channel so new hires and current employees can find and join the groups that resonate with them
General/Other: Any channels that are broadly useful for everyone in your workspace

Team Settings and Company Materials

Under Team Settings, you can add and manage locations, departments, and groups. You can also upload company materials here, including PDFs or links to living documents like your employee handbook, brand guidelines, or Notion pages.

Custom User Profile Fields

In User Profile settings, you can add custom questions that will appear on every employee's User Profile under "Additional Information." These can be practical or personal. A few ideas:

Coffee order
Favorite food delivery app
Go-to Kareoke song
Anything that helps teammates know how to show up for each other

These answers become searchable context when you want to show an employee some extra care.

You can set your company's brand color palette and add social media links from the Brand settings page.

Employee Directory and User Profiles

The Directory

Employees can access the directory from the CultureBot web app at any time. The Cards view shows everyone in your company, with badges for employees celebrating a birthday or work anniversary that month. Clicking on any card brings up more information about that person.

What Lives on a User Profile

Each employee's profile includes:

Basic info: Short bio, birthday, work anniversary, personal email, LinkedIn or other social links
Recognition: Shoutouts received and points earned (more recognition detail is coming to this section soon)
HRIS data (read-only): If you sync CultureBot with your HRIS, employee data like title, department, location, groups, and anniversary date will appear here automatically. Employees cannot edit this section.
Skills and special interests: Pronouns, languages, interests, and other details employees fill out themselves
Additional information: Answers to the custom questions you configured in User Profile settings

How Employees Edit Their Own Profile

Employees can view and edit their own profile from the home screen in the CultureBot web app. From there, they can fill in their personal details, update their special interests and custom field answers, and toggle their birthday and work anniversary celebrations on or off.

What Employees See Right Now

In the current beta, employees (non-admins) have access to:

The employee directory: Fully live. Employees can browse the directory and click into any teammate's profile to learn more about them.
Their own profile: Employees can view and edit their own profile from their home screen.
The Company About page: The mission, vision, and values you add to your Company Profile are visible at the About page. Additional sections of the Company Profile will become public-facing in a future update.

Admins can configure and edit the Company Profile. Employees cannot make changes to company-level settings.

A Note on Beta

Because this feature is still in active development, employee profiles may not have much information in them yet. That is expected. Now is a great time to set up your Company Profile so the foundation is in place when the full launch arrives in Slack and Microsoft Teams. The more you build out now, the richer the experience will be for your team when broader access rolls out.
