Offer decisioning
A recommendation built from your job architecture, compensation data, and market benchmarks, with the reasoning behind it. Delivered in Workday, Slack, or Teams. Out-of-policy offers get flagged before they're extended.
Policy at the point of decision
Pay policies fail because they can't be enforced in the moment. Decisions embeds your ranges, budget controls, equity requirements, and compliance obligations directly into the workflow.
Promotions, merit, and transfers
Governance extends to promotions, merit cycles, transfers, and relocations. Every mid-tenure decision is as consistent and defensible as the one that started the employment relationship.
The Decision Graph
The complete record of every pay decision, with the reasoning behind it. See what's working, where policy is slipping, and where retention risk is quietly building.
Agent Builder
Build AI agents for your hardest compensation workflows. M&A leveling, job architecture mapping, promotion calibration. You build the agent. Syndio governs every decision it makes. With MCP, that governed intelligence extends into Anthropic, OpenAI, and whatever your enterprise is building next.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Decisions do?
Decisions provides AI-powered pay recommendations at the moment an offer, promotion, merit increase, transfer, or off-cycle adjustment is being made. It evaluates each decision against your compensation policy, market data, internal equity, budget constraints, and compliance requirements simultaneously, and delivers guidance in the tools your team already uses
How does Decisions deliver recommendations?
Recommendations are delivered directly in Workday, Slack, Teams, and other tools your recruiters and managers already work in. Syndi™ AI provides the recommendation along with the full reasoning behind it, so the decision-maker can explain the number to a candidate, a manager, or a board member.
What kinds of pay decisions does Decisions govern?
New hire offers, promotions, merit increases, transfers, off-cycle adjustments, counteroffers, and restructuring decisions, among others. The platform is built to govern any decision that affects an employee's compensation, and the list of supported decision types continues to grow as organizations bring more of their workflows into a single governed system.
How much does a single pay decision cost when it's wrong?
Syndio's modeling shows the lifecycle value of a single well-made hiring decision is $5,257 to $10,454, accounting for overpayment, compression, turnover, and remediation costs that compound over time. For a company with 60,000 employees and a 10% hire rate, that is $31M to $62M in recoverable value per year.
Do I need Essentials to use Decisions?
Essentials establishes the governance and compliance foundation that Decisions builds on. Most organizations start with Essentials and add Decisions as they move from monitoring to real-time governance of individual pay actions. Together they form a single connected system.
How does Decisions handle exceptions and overrides?
When a decision falls outside policy, Decisions flags it before it's finalized. If the decision-maker proceeds with an override, the rationale is logged automatically. Over time, this record surfaces patterns: where overrides are concentrated, whether they correlate with specific managers or regions, and whether they're creating downstream risk.
