Driven by a mission, united by a vision.

From our beginnings to our breakthroughs, meet the team behind Sherlock AI and the purpose that drives us.

Sherlock has one bold mission

To make coaching accessible to all, regardless of role or level. With AI-driven coaching, we empower employees, managers, and leaders to spark breakthrough thinking, nurture talent, and drive success. One powerful coaching conversation can shift perspectives. Now, imagine that same impact, consistently, at scale. Too many untapped potential game-changers stall without the right ‘lever’ to propel them forward.

Sherlock AI is that ‘Lever’.
