Appical

What Appical is

Appical is an employee onboarding platform for organizations guiding new hires through onboarding and helping them stay engaged. It builds interactive journeys for mobile and desktop, tailored to roles, departments and locations. A journey can combine quizzes, videos, feedback forms, checklists, glossaries and FAQs. Automated onboarding sends new employees information, reminders and checklists, while helping managers keep track of their tasks. Reporting dashboards show adoption, engagement, progress and completion rates.

Appical connects with HRIS, ATS, payroll and other systems, including Workday, BambooHR, Visma Net, Warp VR and Visma YouServe. These connections can transfer data and automate user provisioning and deprovisioning. People can use the web player in a browser or download the native Android and iOS apps. Appical offers Starter for €399 a month, Professional for €799 a month, and Enterprise at a quoted price. Starter includes one language and one onboarding course; Professional includes two languages and three courses. Appical was founded in 2012 and is headquartered in Amsterdam. It states that it meets GDPR requirements, holds ISO 27001:2023 certification, and encrypts data in transit and at rest.
