Sakha, a Slack-based AI onboarding tool, automates new-hire training, contract review, and policy generation to address the fact that 33% of new hires leave within 90 days and only 12% report being onboarded well.

What happened: Sakha is now in beta, offering a flat-rate AI assistant ($29–$299/month depending on volume) that lives in Slack, learns company policies and processes, guides new hires day-by-day, answers their questions instantly, reviews employment contracts for legal risk before signing, and generates company policies on demand.

Why it matters: Traditional onboarding costs companies $2,000+ in lost senior engineer time per hire (answering the same 50 questions repeatedly) and leaves critical knowledge scattered across Slack threads and undiscoverable documents. Sakha addresses the knowledge gap—critical information lives in one searchable knowledge base—and flags contract risks (non-competes, IP grants) before they become legal problems months later. The flat pricing model ($99/month for Growth tier) undercuts per-employee tools like Guru, which costs $900–$1,500/month for 50 people.

What to watch: Setup takes under 10 minutes (one-click Slack OAuth, upload docs or import from Google Drive/Notion, assign a flow); the tool includes a 14-day free trial with full access and no credit card required. Knowledge is row-level encrypted and isolated per workspace, never used to train AI models.
