Authexis vs Staffbase
Your people have plenty of channels. What they don't have is you.
Staffbase is an enterprise internal-comms platform: an employee app, an intranet, email tooling, and analytics, with AI drafting added on top. Authexis solves a different problem: the message itself. A regular note from the leader, in the leader's actual voice, without hiring a comms team to produce it.
Authexis
The way a founder or CEO stays in front of their company in their own voice, on a cadence. It learns how you write from every message you approve, and it holds the thread of what's happening in your company, so each note starts from a draft that already sounds like you. $99/mo.
Staffbase
The dominant employee-communications platform for large organizations: branded employee app, intranet, comms email, campaign analytics, and an AI assistant for drafting. Built for dedicated comms teams. Enterprise pricing by quote.
Side by side
| Feature | Authexis | Staffbase |
|---|---|---|
| What it solves | The message — a leader's regular note that sounds like them | The channel — app, intranet, and email infrastructure for comms teams |
| Voice | Learns your voice from every message you approve; drafts start sounding like you | Generic AI drafting assistant; output reads like any company's memo |
| Primary buyer | Founder/CEO of a 50–250 person company with no comms team | Internal-comms and HR teams at enterprises, often 1,000+ employees |
| Setup | Self-serve in minutes; works with the email and channels you already have | Enterprise rollout: IT involvement, app deployment, adoption campaign |
| Who writes | You approve a draft that already knows your voice and your company's thread | Your comms team drafts (with AI assist), routes, schedules, and publishes |
| Distribution | Email to your team, plus the external channels you already publish to | Its own employee app, intranet, digital signage, and comms email |
| Analytics | Lightweight: the win is the note going out every month, not a dashboard | Deep reach and engagement analytics across channels — a genuine strength |
| Pricing (entry) | $99/mo, self-serve | Enterprise quote; typically a five-figure annual contract |
Choose Authexis if…
- You're the founder or CEO and there is no comms team: you are the comms team
- Your company already has channels (email, Slack); what's missing is a regular message from you
- You want the all-hands note to sound like you wrote it, because your people can tell
- You'd rather approve a draft in ten minutes a month than find an hour to write from scratch
Choose Staffbase if…
- You have a dedicated internal-comms team running campaigns across many audiences
- You need an employee app or intranet as the channel itself — frontline workers, multiple locations
- Reach and engagement analytics across thousands of employees drive your comms decisions
- You're operating at a scale where an enterprise contract and rollout are the appropriate shape
