You look out for everyone.
Knowwn looks out for you.
A tool built for the people who carry healthcare on their shoulders. For nurses, technicians, therapists, and the frontline staff who keep hospitals and clinics running.
What you're working with right now.
The work is hard in ways most people outside healthcare don't see. The shifts are long. The decisions are heavy. The people you care for change constantly, but the part of you that does the caring stays the same.
Most of the systems healthcare organizations use to manage their workforce don't see you. They see headcount, productivity, and engagement scores collected once a year. None of those tell anyone, including yourself, what kind of care professional you are. What specifically depletes you, or what would help you keep doing this work for the long career you came here for goes unseen.
You're not a number on a dashboard. You are a specific kind of person, doing a specific kind of work, with a specific way of replenishing when it takes its toll. Knowwn is built around that specificity.
What Knowwn changes for you.
A clearer picture of who you are, what depletes you, and the kind of recognition that actually lands.
You see your own pattern.
The Knowwn assessment takes seven minutes and gives you a profile that names the kind of care professional you are. Whether you're a Beacon, a Wayfinder, a Luminary, or a Meridian, the profile shows you what fuels you, what depletes you, and what kinds of recognition actually land. The profile is yours. You take it with you wherever you work.
Your profile is yours. Your leaders see only what helps them lead you well.
Knowwn surfaces what fuels you, what's depleting you, and what kind of support actually lands. What stays with you is your individual answers, your raw scores, and anything you didn't choose to share. You decide where the line is between what's helpful for them and what's yours alone.
Your work fits who you are.
Profiles aren't pigeonholes. They're starting points for honest conversations between you and the people who lead you about what you bring, what's hard, and what would make this sustainable for the next decade. The assessment is the beginning of that conversation, not the end.
Here's what that looks like in practice.
When you've been asked to fill out one too many surveys.
You've answered the engagement survey. You've taken the wellbeing pulse. You've checked the boxes on the satisfaction questionnaire. You've waited to see what changed. Knowwn is different in a specific way: the assessment isn't for the institution. It's for you. The profile you receive belongs to you, follows you across roles and employers, and is designed to give you and the people who lead you better starting points for the conversations you should already be having.
When you're carrying more than anyone notices.
There are weeks where the work asks more than usual and no one around you can quite see how much. Knowwn gives you and your manager language for what's specifically draining about this stretch. Not "burnout" as a vague label, but the specific kind of strain you're carrying right now and what would actually help.
When recognition feels generic.
Most workplace recognition feels like it could have been sent to anyone. A pizza party, a printed certificate, an email from administration. With Knowwn, the people recognizing you know what kind of care professional you are. The thank-you arrives knowing something specific about you.
When you're deciding whether this work is sustainable.
Many care professionals reach a moment where they wonder if they can keep doing this for the long career they came here for. Knowwn helps you answer that question with more information about yourself. We help you understand what specifically wears you down and what specifically restores you. The decision is made with clarity rather than exhaustion.
"My charge nurse and I had a conversation about my profile that changed how she supports me. It didn't take an hour. It just took the right starting point."
"I've taken a lot of workplace assessments. This is the first one I actually wanted to share with my team."
For care professionals.
Designed for the people doing the work.
Knowwn is grounded in Self-Determination Theory, Conservation of Resources Theory, Job Demands-Resources Theory, and Person-Environment Fit research. The four research traditions inform every part of the platform, and they're translated into tools that respect both the rigor of the science and the reality of your day.
