How (and why) do I grant Antenna access to Google Workspace?

​

If you’re reading this, you probably administer your organization’s Google Workspace and one of your leaders just asked if they could use Antenna for their team. 

​

Below is a less than 5 minute read on why Antenna is valuable, how Antenna works and step by step guidance on approving. 

​

What is Antenna?

 

Antenna helps leaders better understand how they are engaging with their team members, helping to improve their leadership skills, team engagement and team performance. 

​

How does it work?

​

1. A leader grants Antenna read-only access to their calendar and email history from Google and provides Antenna with the names and email addresses of their direct reports. 

2. Antenna analyzes this data, building a picture of how the leader is engaging with their entire team - how much time is spent, how much engagement, when they are engaging, how they are engaging, and we surface insights directly to the leader.

3. Upon registration, the leader gets a 90 day historical analysis, then an ongoing weekly analysis that reviews the most recent week’s data. 

 

Note: Our product follows strict privacy guidelines. Antenna only has read-only access to that specific user's data, and we only ever surface any analysis of that data to that specific user. 

 

What kind of security do you have in place?

​

As part of our development with Google, we completed a verification process and security review via a third party security firm to satisfy their requirements. We passed this review on December 21, 2022 and will complete a review annually. Please review our certificate here. 

Ok, I’m convinced. How do I let the leader install?
