What the publisher says

As described on Microsoft Marketplace.

The average Employee Assistance Program is used by about 4% of employees. Shame is the reason. Going to HR for the EAP code feels like raising your hand to say something is wrong with me, and now my employer knows. So people don't. They wait. They white-knuckle it until it's worse than it had to be.

Sofia is built to remove the shame.

Show the rest of the publisher’s description (8 more lines)

She is a Sympathetic Objective Feedback Intelligent Assistant — a non-diagnosing, non-prescribing AI reflective listening tool deployed inside your own Azure tenant. Employees access her through a single link on your intranet. No HR sign-up. No utilization report with names attached. No record that follows them.

Every session is encrypted. Every session is destroyed at the end. Every user receives a signed Certificate of Incineration as cryptographic proof that what they said is gone.

Built on Claude Opus 4.7 via Microsoft Foundry. Anthropic is the only frontier AI lab that trains its model under a published Constitutional AI methodology drawn in part from the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Protected by NiaShield Non-Persistent Infrastructure Architecture. Patent-pending. Deployed inside the customer's own Azure subscription — the customer's tenant is the privacy boundary, not ours.

What Sofia is not. Sofia is not a therapist, psychologist, or licensed clinician. She does not diagnose conditions, prescribe treatments, or replace professional care. When a conversation surfaces signs of acute clinical need, Sofia names that fact directly and refers the user to appropriate human resources, including 988 for suicide and crisis intervention.

What HR gets. Aggregate utilization metrics, never individual session content. Renewal-grade evidence that the benefit is being used — without ever surveilling who is using it.

What IT gets. A managed application that provisions in approximately 10 minutes. App Service, Cosmos DB (encrypted at rest, TTL-bounded sessions), Key Vault, Application Insights (with PII scrubbing), User-Assigned Managed Identity. No stored credentials. No external SaaS dependency for session data.

Pricing. Three flat-rate tiers based on covered employee count. Sofia Pilot (up to 500 employees), Sofia Business (up to 1,000), Sofia Enterprise (up to 5,000). Workforces above 5,000 employees: contact for a Private Offer.

Confirmed means matched to a public authoritative registry. Claimed means the vendor or its listing states it, not yet cross-checked. A framework not shown was not found in any source we hold, which is not evidence against it. Not listed means a scoped registry check found no match for this vendor's domain: a No is a scoped registry check, not a compliance judgment. Confidence bands: 95% domain-verified, 90% registry-checked, 80% self-attested, 70% weak signal. Self-attested items marked “vendor's site” are gathered from the vendor's own website and are not verified by us.
