Seven products. Millions of data points about your workforce, your skills, your knowledge, your talent pipeline. And until now, no way to ask them a question and get a single, synthesised, evidence-backed answer. Astraal Nova is that answer — the conversational intelligence layer that makes your entire ecosystem talk to you.
The Astraal ecosystem gives your organisation the most complete intelligence portrait of its people, knowledge, and capabilities that has ever existed inside a single integrated platform. Astraal Nova is the moment that intelligence becomes conversational. Not a dashboard you interrogate. Not a report someone builds for you. A living intelligence layer you talk to — and that talks back with the synthesis your questions deserve.
Seven years of building seven products — each with its own deep intelligence layer, each designed from the beginning to share a unified data architecture. The Intelligence Synthesis Core™ is what happens when all of that intelligence is finally allowed to think together.
The Intelligence Synthesis Core™ operates across the full Astraal ecosystem — reading signals from LXP's learning intelligence, SkillSphere's capability graph, Credentials' proof layer, Insights' organisational cortex, Xperience's community intelligence, Horizon's knowledge graph, and Polaris's talent constellation simultaneously. When you ask Nova a question, it doesn't search a database. It reasons across seven intelligence sources in real time — synthesising an answer that no single product could produce alone.
Nova is not a single capability — it is a continuously expanding frontier of intelligence applications built on top of the unified Astraal ecosystem. Each pillar represents a different dimension of what becomes possible when seven intelligence layers finally think together.
The closest thing your organisation will ever have to an AI colleague who has read every data point, synthesised every signal, and is always ready to answer the question you're actually trying to ask — not the one that fits your current analytics dashboard.
Ask any question about your workforce in plain language — "which functions are most at risk from AI disruption based on our current skill distribution?" — and receive a synthesised, cited, actionable answer drawn from across the full seven-product intelligence stack in seconds.
Nova doesn't wait for questions. When cross-ecosystem signals converge into a pattern that represents an emerging risk or opportunity — a high-potential employee whose flight risk is rising while their succession role's bench depth falls — Nova surfaces the alert before anyone thinks to ask.
Nova generates board-ready talent and capability narratives on demand — synthesising bench strength, knowledge health, skill readiness, and learning velocity into a structured, evidence-backed briefing that a CHRO can present with confidence, produced in minutes not weeks.
The most valuable intelligence your organisation can generate is not what others have already discovered — it is what is uniquely true about your own people, your own culture, and your own capability patterns. Experiment Studio lets you discover it with scientific rigour.
Design structured experiments on your organisation's data — "does completing the Applied Intelligence Foundry programme before a lateral move correlate with a successful transition?" — with statistical controls, significance testing, and reproducibility built into the experiment framework.
Goes beyond correlation to explore causal relationships in your ecosystem data — identifying not just that learning velocity and retention correlate, but whether learning investment causes retention improvement or merely co-occurs with other retention factors. The intelligence that actually changes investment decisions.
All experiments run within Astraal's privacy architecture — no individual employee is identifiable in aggregate analysis, all experimentation complies with DPDP requirements, and results are available only to authorised users. Scientific rigour with institutional responsibility.
Generic AI is trained on generic data and produces generic intelligence. Your organisation is not generic. Custom Intelligence Models build proprietary AI on your specific ecosystem data — creating intelligence that no competitor can buy, replicate, or access.
Train custom AI models on your Astraal ecosystem data — your learning patterns, your skill trajectories, your knowledge graphs, your talent constellations — producing intelligence that reflects your organisational reality, not the average reality of every company that bought a generic tool.
A full REST and GraphQL API that allows your engineering team to build custom applications on top of your Astraal intelligence — embedding workforce intelligence into your own intranet, your own manager tools, your own talent dashboards. Your intelligence, in your environment.
Your ecosystem data never leaves your tenancy for model training. All custom intelligence models are built and hosted within your data boundary. Astraal never uses your organisational data to train models that benefit any other customer. What you build is entirely yours.
Nova customers are Astraal's development partners. Every frontier capability — whether it eventually becomes a standard feature in LXP, Polaris, or Horizon — is first deployed in Nova. Founding Nova customers shape what the entire Astraal ecosystem becomes.
Current frontier features in active development for Nova early access: AI-generated learning experience moments in Xperience (no manual programme design required), autonomous knowledge curation and decay prevention in Horizon, and real-time capability scenario modelling in Polaris.
Direct quarterly sessions with Astraal's AI research team — reviewing what the Intelligence Synthesis Core™ is discovering in your ecosystem data, discussing frontier developments, and co-designing the next experiments. The deepest engagement Astraal offers any customer.
Access to the private Nova Founders Community — a curated cohort of CHROs, CLOs, and CKOs from Nova early-access organisations sharing frontier intelligence discoveries, experiment results, and use cases across the platform. The most forward-thinking talent and capability leaders in India, in one room.
These are real question types from Nova's early-access programme — the kinds of strategic intelligence questions that CHROs, CLOs, and CEOs actually ask, and that used to require a team of analysts, three weeks, and a 40-slide deck to address.
Nova is not for everyone on day one. It is for the organisations and leaders who have already built the Astraal ecosystem foundation — and who are ready to move from intelligence generation to intelligence conversation.
"I can now answer any board question about talent and capability in real time — with evidence, not estimates. And I find out about problems before they become crises."
"For the first time, I can actually prove which programmes create capability and which only create completions — with evidence that connects learning investment to measurable skill and performance outcomes."
"We can embed Astraal's workforce intelligence into our own internal tools and dashboards — putting the right intelligence in front of the right people inside the systems they already use."
"We are using Nova to run AI experiments on our organisation that no competitor is running — and discovering capability patterns that will inform strategic investment decisions for the next five years."
Every other Astraal product generates intelligence independently. Nova is the convergence point — where all seven intelligence streams meet, synthesise, and become something none of them could produce alone.
Nova is in active early access with a select cohort of founding organisations. These are not projected outcomes — they are the intelligence discoveries from the first 90 days of deployment, reported by the CHROs and CLOs who asked the questions.
The risks that matter most — the ones that cost organisations the most when they go undetected — are always multi-dimensional. A talent risk that is also a knowledge risk. A learning investment that produces completions but not capability. A succession gap that is also a flight risk and a knowledge concentration problem. None of these are visible in any single product. All of them are visible in Nova.
Nova is in early access with a founding cohort of organisations that have deployed at least three other Astraal products. Founding access includes conversational workforce intelligence, the Nova Experiment Studio beta, quarterly intelligence sessions with the Astraal research team, and lifetime Founders pricing. Seats are strictly limited.
