## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-28 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Searched a few angles - here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd try them.
> 
> ## The short list
> 
> **1. Officevibe (now Workleap Officevibe)** - my default suggestion for a small business doing this for the first time. Short automated pulse surveys on a recurring cadence, anonymous by default, and the reporting is aimed at individual managers rather than an HR analytics team. Low setup burden, which is the thing that actually kills survey programs at small companies. Around $5/user/month with a ~10-user minimum. ([costbench](https://costbench.com/software/employee-engagement/workleap/), [G2](https://www.g2.com/products/workleap/pricing))
> 
> **2. Culture Amp** - the one to pick if you care about *benchmarking*: comparing your scores against similar-size companies and tracking movement over time. Best-validated question library of the bunch and strong action-planning workflows. Downside for a small shop: annual contracts, sales-quote pricing, and more platform than a 20-person team needs.

> 
> **3. 15Five** - best value if you want more than surveys. Engagement surveys plus week
