I'm Tanimul Haque Khan, and I lead the Innovation Department at Brain Station 23. This journey started with a simple, thought-provoking conversation with our CTO, Mizanur Rahman. He shared a concern that many leaders today quietly carry: "Most pulse survey platforms are SaaS-based, and we have no control over our data. Even if they promise data isolation, we can't verify it. On top of that, the pricing grows with each user – it's invasive and unfair." This struck a chord. We both knew that as organizations grow, these platforms become not only increasingly expensive, but also compliance nightmares – storing sensitive HR data in shared environments without true transparency. The HR Perspective I took this concern to our Senior HR Manager, Abdul Motaleb Sohel, and asked: "What's missing from your current pulse survey tools?" He opened up about the everyday pain of using tools that weren't built for real HR needs – tools that lacked empathy, customization, and practical features that matter most during execution. We realized something profound: HR needs a product designed with them, not for them. The Birth of Open Pulse Survey Out of this collaboration came Open Pulse Survey – a tool shaped by those who needed it most, not by what the market was selling. Why We Built It: Self-hosted or isolated per-client, giving full control over data. No invasive per-user/month pricing. Growth shouldn't feel like a penalty. Co-designed with HR, ensuring it solves real, everyday problems. Transparent, flexible, and built with compliance in mind. This isn't just another survey platform. It's a rebellion against the exploitative pricing and black-box policies of typical SaaS solutions. Built for People, Not Just Profit At its core, Open Pulse Survey is about empowering organizations to take back ownership of their data, processes, and employee experience. It's not built for mass market exploitation. It's built for teams that care, by a team that does. Welcome to the future of people-first feedback.
