Superflow's research insights
We leverage science to drive human-centered growth, at scale
Revolutionizing Work and Learning:
We are dedicated to creating a new way of working and learning that not only empowers people to perform better, but also to feel better. To achieve this goal, we leverage multidisciplinary research insights from learning sciences, visual design, human-computer interactions, social sciences, and organizational psychology.
Our in-house learning and organizational development experts, along with our world-class advisory board, set the direction for our product strategy and lead our experimentation towards a shared, bold vision: a world where human-centered growth is embraced as the norm. As our platform matures, we aim to collaborate with leading research groups to launch Superflow Labs, enabling us to further advance our understanding of how to optimize performance and well-being.
Flow is a psychological state in which a person is fully immersed in an activity and experiences a feeling of intense focus and enjoyment. It is characterized by a high level of productivity and a sense of effortless accomplishment. This means that we need to actively design learning environments that help people reach the state of flow.
"There is 3 days of heightened creativity after a flow state experience."

According to Google
“Flow state percentage is the #1 management metric for the 21st century”.

help individuals facilitate flow experiences, and increase their performance: self-leadership, job crafting, designing work to be playful, and the use of their strengths.
We strive to create positive impact through a product that delights, empowers and delivers results. To ensure that we’re on the right path, we continually experiment while basing our design decisions on a set of evidence-based core principles.
Our learning principles guide our product development process, ensuring that every decision we make aligns with robust findings in learning sciences, visual design, human-computer interactions, social sciences, and organizational psychology.
Coaching results in better team effectiveness and productivity as well as self-efficacy, while learners report that timely feedback and short video facilitation positively impact their engagement and learning.
In Superflow, leading experts guide users through their learning with the help of video facilitation and share unique insights and prompt personalized feedback, all on-demand.
Flow experience in learning characterized by a balance of skills and challenges, goal clarity and feedback has been shown to increase concentration and sense of control as well as high productivity.
We take the design of our interfaces and learning experiences seriously and strive to deliver a platform with rich content that facilitates more flow.
Personal connection to the learning material and its explicit, timely value are key for engagement and optimal learning outcomes.
Superflow integrates directly into your existing ecosystem for just-in-time learning. Identifying personal goals and reflection are core components of our Flows for meaningful, personalized experiences.
Effective active learning methods use not only hands-on and minds-on approaches, but also hearts-on, providing increased emotional and social support.
We help teams learn and use high-performance frameworks by connecting them to their own goals, and applying them in real life, leveraging their experts’ and each other’s support.
Agency in learning is a product of a learner’s ecology and when it is nurtured, it leads to more engagement and more learning.
Our creator platform empowers coaches to create or to customize existing Flows. Superflow encourages learners to take charge of their learning and professional and personal fulfillment.

“Asking questions, the basis of perspective-getting, can also foster employee belonging, both in collaborative problem-solving meetings and in one-on-ones between managers and employees. We saw earlier how asking people questions about themselves and their values is a bond-builder. It affirms employees by conveying that they are seen as a whole person rather than a cog in a work machine.” - Geoffrey L. Cohen

“Restructuring businesses around flow means radically altering their DNA, shifting emphasis from mechanistic efficiencies to deep human engagement. Not many companies are up for this challenge. But in an era of relentless progress, making a present tense commitment to flow may be the only way to stay ahead of a breakneck future.” - Steve Kotler

“Reflection without feedback did not lead to performance improvement. Further analyses indicated that the proposed reflection strategy was less effective for individuals low in learning goal orientation, low in need for cognition, and low in personal importance as they engaged less in reflection.”
