Your data, from A to B – in style.
That's the idea behind the name. A taxi takes you where you want to go – direct, safe, and comfortable, no questions asked. octo.taxi does the same for your HR, L&D, and performance data: it moves freely from your HR system to your dashboards, your BI tools, your own API – securely, EU-hosted, and without the white-knuckle CSV exports. You name the destination. We handle the ride.
Meet Tentaclemore Shipping
Every screenshot and clip on this page is the real product, running on Tentaclemore Shipping – a fictional ocean shipping group with 8,888 generated employees in 26 countries.
Start the day with a briefing
Your start page reads like a briefing: the day in sentences, three things for today, what is due next, and what changed since your last visit. Every figure shows how old its data is.
Ten built-in dashboards
Compliance Cockpit, Certificates & Qualifications, L&D Operations & Impact, Classroom Training & Resources, Team Cockpit, the HRBP and CHRO views, Recruiting Pipeline, Onboarding & First 90 Days, and System & Data Quality – ready after the first sync. Copy one to make it your own.
A search that answers
People, trainings, certificates, places, and classroom sessions in one box. A typo? octo.taxi asks "Did you mean …?" and only offers suggestions it has checked.
Ask in plain English
Ask octo answers with aggregates and the chart to match – never with a named person, and only for groups of at least five people. Pin the answer to a dashboard.
The whole organization at a glance
The org chart loads level by level, zooms and pans, filters by department, and works with the keyboard and on phones.
Alerts that tap you on the shoulder
Put an alert on a figure, for example overdue training at one site. When it fires, the bell shows a notification – and you get an email if you want one.
Privacy you can show your works council
A minimum group size for every figure, protection against small groups, an individual data policy per role, and audit logs – set per organization, enforced on every path.
Your data, wherever you need it
A REST API that mirrors Cornerstone 1:1, a simplified API, an OData feed for Power BI and Excel – and the connector's API catalog right in the search, for admins.
Tentaclemore Shipping is made up: the company, its people, and its numbers are generated for this page. Any resemblance to a real company is coincidental.
Beyond the screen
The hidden data engine.
What you see when you log in is only half of octo.taxi. Underneath runs the engine that moves your Cornerstone data to where change happens – your BI, your employee experience platforms, your own code.
Reports that run themselves
Manual report exports become automated data feeds, compatible with Reporting 2.0: the same columns, names and order your Tableau or Power BI already reads – without anyone downloading a CSV again.
Employee experience at scale
Each employee's own learning data, ready for your employee experience platform or intranet app – built once per change and delivered in milliseconds, for hundreds of thousands of employees.
Near-realtime delta sync
Only what changed in Cornerstone moves, every few minutes. Every feed stays close to the source, and every view shows how old its data is.
API and OData, your way
A REST API that mirrors Cornerstone 1:1, a simplified API, an OData feed and endpoints you build yourself – the same data and the same tenant isolation, wherever it goes.
In addition to Cornerstone, never instead: Cornerstone stays your system of record.
Everything your HR and L&D data needs
Fifteen tools, one platform – and every one of them is live today. No roadmap promises, no BI license, no consulting project.
Near-real-time sync
Your Cornerstone data, replicated through Cornerstone's own data export API. Delta sync moves only what changed – and every view shows how old its data is.
Ten built-in dashboards
Compliance Cockpit, Certificates & Qualifications, L&D Operations & Impact, Classroom Training & Resources, Team Cockpit, the HRBP and CHRO views, Recruiting Pipeline, Onboarding & First 90 Days, and System & Data Quality – ready after the first sync, with only the figures your systems really deliver.
Your Day
A start page that reads like a briefing: the day in sentences, three things for today, what is due next, and what changed since your last visit.
A search that answers
People, trainings, certificates, places, and classroom sessions in one box – with "Did you mean", checked suggestions, and quick answers for math, currencies, and dates.
Ask octo
Ask a question in plain English and get the answer as an aggregate with its chart – never a named person, always groups of at least five. Pin it to a dashboard.
AI dashboard builder
Describe the dashboard you need. octo.taxi picks the tiles and filters from your own catalog – you review it and save it.
Interactive org chart
Your whole reporting structure, loading level by level: zoom, expand, filter by department – fully keyboard-operable and smooth on phones.
Alerts and notifications
Put an alert on a figure – for example overdue training at one site – and get a notification under the bell, plus an email if you want one.
Data Explorer
Browse and filter the synced tables, save queries, and export to CSV – always within the data policy of the person asking.
REST API and OData feed
A 1:1 Cornerstone mirror (swap the base URL, keep your code), a simplified API with clean names, and an OData feed for Power BI and Excel.
No-code endpoint builder
Build your line: drag tables and columns into your own REST endpoint, preview it live, and publish it – including point-in-time (asOf) queries.
Privacy by design
k-anonymity, small-group protection, an individual data policy per role, two-factor sign-in, and full audit logs. Works council ready, data stored in Frankfurt.
Your brand, your language
Import logo, colors, and fonts from your website, in light and dark mode. 11 interface languages, and installable on the home screen of a phone.
Training portfolios
Turn your live catalog into branded PDF and HTML training portfolios – filtered by language, subject, or audience, with deep links into Cornerstone.
Portal Health Check
One screen: a full inventory and module-activation map of your Cornerstone portal. The data-backed companion to a consulting health check.
White-label
Your brand. Your address. Your product.
octo.taxi takes on the look of whoever runs it – for organizations that want it to feel like their own tool, and for partners who offer it to their clients under their own brand.
Logo, colors, fonts
Your logo, your colors and a matching typeface – set by hand or imported from your website in one step. octo.taxi works out readable text colors for your palette automatically.
Light and dark
Every theme comes in light and dark, with its own logo and accent for dark surfaces. Everyone picks the mode they like.
One library, many looks
Themes live in your organization's library: apply one to every portal, to a single portal or to one business unit, try it out in your own session, and schedule a brand changeover for a date.
Sign-in, emails, exports
Your portal's sign-in page can carry your brand, and system emails and PDF exports carry your name, logo and color.
Your own address
Every portal has its own address: a name of your choice on octo.taxi, or an address on your own domain.
Made for partners
For a partner, each client is an organization of its own, with its own portals, themes and address – a theme never crosses from one organization to another.
Theming is part of every plan. No “Powered by octo.taxi” and your own domain come with the White-Label & Custom Domain add-on. See the add-ons →
ABC, DEFG, HIJKL, MNO and PQ are made-up example brands with example addresses – not customers. The dashboard shows generated data.
How it works
Four steps. No consulting project. No IT ticket.
1. Get in touch
Drop a quick note. We come back within one business day.
2. Onboarding
Short call – we understand your setup, you ask the questions that matter.
3. Connect
We bring your Cornerstone data into octo.taxi – securely, EU-hosted.
4. Explore
Dashboards, plain-language queries and REST API – immediately yours.
Built for every HR stakeholder
Whether you're presenting to the board, tracking compliance, or connecting systems – octo.taxi speaks your language.
CHRO & HR Leadership
“Need board-ready workforce insights without waiting for IT.”
The CHRO Quarter View, the org chart, and headcount trends – always up to date, always ready for the board.
L&D & Talent Management
“Tracking training completion and goal progress across thousands of learners is slow.”
The Compliance Cockpit, Certificates & Qualifications, and L&D Operations & Impact dashboards show completion, overdue training, expiring certificates, and learning hours in near real time.
People Analytics & Reporting
“Exporting CSVs, cleaning data, and building reports from scratch every month.”
Data Explorer with saved queries and CSV export, BI access via the OData feed, and Ask octo for instant answers in plain English.
Line managers
“I only hear about overdue training when the audit is next week.”
The Team Cockpit shows your own reporting line: who is due, whose qualification expires, and how the new people are doing – and alerts tell you before it is late.
HR IT & Integrations
“Building custom integrations against Cornerstone's API is slow and rate-limited.”
A full REST API (1:1 CSOD mirror + simplified V2), an OData feed and configurable rate limits. Drop-in replacement – change the base URL, keep your code.
DPO, Legal & Works Council
“Need assurance that HR analytics meet GDPR and Betriebsrat requirements.”
k-anonymity thresholds, small-group protection, field masking, an individual data policy, query guardrails, and audit logging, with data stored in Frankfurt. Works council ready by design.
What we believe
Your HR data is a human right.
Not a license tier. Not an upsell. Not a renewal lever.
Most platforms charge you to read your own data. Some charge nearly half the license fee just for API access. We think that is broken.
octo.taxi is built on the opposite principle. Your data flows through a two-way door – in from your HR system, out to wherever you need it. Every plan includes full API access. Pricing scales with how much you use, not whether you can use it.
When you decide to leave, you take everything with you. Always free. No exit toll. That is the deal.
It's also why we named it octo.taxi. A taxi never owns you – it takes you where you decide to go, then waits for the next call. Your data should travel the same way: freely from A to B to C, comfortable and secure, with you always naming the destination.
API access in every tier
Read, sync, and integrate from day one. Higher usage scales pricing – access never does.
Open formats, portable exports
Standard, documented schemas. Your warehouse, your BI tool, your AI agents – all welcome.
Free exit, always
One-time export to leave the platform never costs extra. Switching should be a two-way door.
Hands down, fair pricing.
Fair pricing by company size. The bigger you are, the less per employee.
Early bird prices – won't last, act fast!
Same support and full API access in every tier. Your data is never an upsell.

Add-ons
Optional add-ons, available on every plan – Octily switches them on for you.
Telemetry & Analytics
Cornerstone and connector usage is part of the built-in dashboards. This add-on is for tracking and analyzing your Cornerstone Customizations and MicroApps. Telemetry is the operational side – errors, performance, availability. User analytics shows how people use them – only with your organization's opt-in. Book both, or telemetry only.
History & Trends
There is no fixed history period: without the add-on, you see the history your connectors themselves provide. History & Trends adds octo.taxi's own history of every change, so you can follow trends over time.
White-Label & Custom Domain
Make it your brand, your product: your name and look instead of octo.taxi (no "Powered by octo.taxi"), on an address of your own domain – for organizations, and for partners who offer it to their clients under their own brand.
Dedicated Infrastructure
Your own database instance in the region of your choice – for data residency, strict procurement rules or very large data volumes, with its own backups and maintenance window. Every plan already keeps your data in its own, isolated database schema.
Additional connectors?
