We are excited to share Nakisa Workforce Planning has once again been recognized as a Star Performer in the Everest Group People Analytics Platforms PEAK Matrix® Assessment. The recognition reflects the significant strides Nakisa has made over the past year in redefining what enterprise HR and workforce planning software can do. 

The Everest Group PEAK Matrix® is an objective benchmark in the industry, evaluating vendors on both capability and market impact. Being named a Star Performer, and advancing our position within that tier, signals that Nakisa's momentum is being recognized for its industry-leading innovations. 

A year of meaningful advances

The past year marked a pivotal chapter in Nakisa's evolution. The flagship launch of the Nakisa Decision Intelligence (NDI) Platform represents a step-change in how enterprise leaders make decisions. NDI is an enterprise-grade agentic AI platform that goes far beyond traditional analytics: it unifies structured and unstructured data from across an organization in real time, runs forecasts and what-if simulations, and delivers context-aware guidance, all through natural language prompts or autonomous agentic operations. Critically, it doesn't just surface insights. Through Nakisa AI agents, it executes approved decisions directly within ERP and HCM systems, closing the loop between analysis and action. 

NDI is available as both a standalone decision intelligence platform, and embedded natively within Nakisa's Workforce Planning Portfolio, meaning the intelligence is built into the workflows HR leaders already use every day. 

Beyond NDI, Nakisa continued to strengthen the foundations that enterprise customers rely on: deeper integrations with leading HCMs and ERPs including SAP, Workday, and Oracle; an enhanced user experience built for complex, large-scale organizations; and an unwavering commitment to data security and compliance, including SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR and CCCS Protected B standards and certifications.
