Growth insights
Growth insights show how your team changed over the period you select. See today’s headcount, how much it grew or shrank across the period, and how many people started or left. Use this to track momentum, plan hiring, and spot shifts in your workforce.
Getting Started

Click on Insights.
You must be an Account owner to access insights.
Total headcount
Shows the number of people active on the last day of the selected period. Gives a clean snapshot of your workforce size after filters are applied.
How it’s calculated: Count of people with at least one active position on the last day. A position is active if the start date is on or before that day and, if there’s an end date, it’s after that day. Each person is counted once.
Headcount growth
Shows the percentage change in total headcount across the selected period. Quickly tells you whether you grew or shrank.
How it’s calculated: (Headcount at end of period − headcount at start of period) ÷ headcount at start × 100.
Starters
Shows how many people started during the selected period. Helps you track hiring momentum.
How it’s calculated: Count of people whose first position start date falls inside the selected period (counted once per person).
Leavers
Shows how many people left during the selected period. Highlights outflow you may need to replace.
How it’s calculated: Count of people whose job end date falls inside the selected period. The leaver date is the job end date.
Total headcount over time
Shows day‑by‑day headcount across the selected period so you can see when size changed.
How it’s calculated: For each sampled day, count of people active on that day using the same active‑position rules as Total headcount.
Starters and leavers over time
Shows daily movements across the period, split into Starters (green) and Leavers (red). Helps you spot hiring or exit spikes and their timing.
How it’s calculated: For each sampled day, Starters = people whose first position start date matches the day; Leavers = people whose job end date matches the day. Values are shown as counts per sampled day.
