Poppulo Acquires Sociabble to Power Its Employee Experience Platform for Communications and Business Leaders in the Era of Agentic Work

Most Internal Comms and HR teams are struggling with the pace of change, fragmented systems, governance concerns, and unclear business outcomes. As a result, AI is often layered onto disconnected processes without the insight or accountability needed to drive real impact. That matters because only 20% of employees are actively engaged, according to Gallup, while organizations are under increasing pressure to improve alignment, adoption, and performance.

Powered by Poppulo AI, the Poppulo Experience Platform helps organizations deliver more relevant, measurable, and governed employee communication. Sociabble adds an innovative social intranet, enhanced mobile and front-line support, as well as solutions for employee advocacy and recognition.

As enterprises consolidate their work tech footprints, Sociabble expands Poppulo’s open Experience Platform that integrates with the broader ecosystem—from IT infrastructure to meeting rooms to mobile devices— giving global enterprises a unified engagement layer.

“Together with Poppulo, we bring a unique value proposition to the employee experience market, with the ability to reach and engage more than 50 million employees worldwide” said Jean-Louis Bénard, CEO of Sociabble. “This scale gives us the strength to continue investing ambitiously in AI and innovation, two areas deeply rooted in the DNA of both companies.”

Sociabble’s capabilities—including intranet, frontline mobile application, employee advocacy, and rewards solutions—will integrate into Poppulo’s platform. By bringing together these capabilities and comprehensive communications, engagement, and behavioral data in a single ecosystem, organizations will gain richer insights that power more personalized, relevant, and measurable employee experiences.
