HarmCheck

HarmCheck integrates directly into Microsoft Outlook to help organizations identify harmful, inappropriate, and high-risk workplace communication in real time — before an email is sent.

Using Active Listening™, HarmCheck continuously analyzes communication as it is written, helping HR teams, people leaders, and organizations identify discriminatory, retaliatory, intimidating, harassing, and other sensitive workplace language before it escalates into larger employee relations, legal, or reputational issues.

Built for enterprise environments and small to medium-size businesses, HarmCheck helps organizations foster healthier workplace communication, reduce HR and legal exposure, strengthen defensibility, and proactively address communication risk across teams.

Unlike general AI tools that summarize or approximate risk, HarmCheck delivers precise, sentence-level detection with structured and auditable outputs designed for real-world workplace compliance and HR workflows.
