Introducing the DWG SenseMake: Your new AI‑powered sixth sense for the workplace
The DWG SenseMaker: Because sometimes the future taps you on the shoulder… and sometimes it just sends you a little nudge.
Last year, Digital Workplace Group brought you the legendary DWG SmartTie. Arguably, it was ahead of its time. This year, I’m delighted – and only slightly trepidatious – to unveil our latest leap forward in digital workplace innovations.
Meet the DWG SenseMaker™
Our latest fantastical concept is an AI-powered companion that helps you navigate the modern workplace using a blend of insight and intuition.
The DWG SenseMaker™ analyses your organization’s signals – spoken, written, digital, ambient, and maybe even emotional if it’s having a particularly good day – to provide on-the-spot guidance such as:

Notes
* Warning: Side effects may include competitive streaks, spontaneous benchmarking and overstimulated OKRs.
+ Warning: If it flashes red, you may already be behind.
§ Warning: Results may be unsettling.
± Warning: Resistance is futile; procrastination is inadvisable.
$ We didn’t mean to include this, but SenseMaker™ insisted!
A word from the DWG Labs
Our R&D team at DWG Labs describes the DWG SenseMaker as:
“The perfect blend of foresight, hindsight – with the occasional helpful nudge.”
I describe it as:
“Proof that April Fool’s Day is an excellent sandbox for innovation.”
