Ren

Ren is an AI coaching agent for managers and people leaders that delivers in-the-moment guidance inside Slack and Microsoft Teams for tough conversations, feedback, 1:1s, and team dynamics.

Key capabilities include:

• Real-time coaching in chat and voice, designed to help managers find the right phrasing for high-stakes moments like missed deadlines, performance feedback, and alignment issues.
• Personalized development via a Growth Theme, created from five short voice calls about goals, team, and culture, then used to tailor ongoing coaching.
• Private memory and follow-ups that keep context across conversations, plus prompts such as a morning briefing.
• Team-level engagement tracking that reports usage patterns and aggregate themes (not individual conversations) for pilots and rollouts.

Pricing: Enterprise-focused with Starter ($25K/year for 25 seats), Launch ($45K/year for 50 seats), and Organization (Custom pricing for 51+ seats). A 14-day free trial is available for up to 5 seats.

What makes it notable: it is built on the Good Authority coaching methodology (15+ years, 100,000+ managers) and emphasizes privacy-first coaching (SOC 2 Type II, no DM access, conversations not shared), positioning it as an alternative to HR training programs and traditional 1:1 coaching sessions.
