Your associates are the last mile of every recall, restock and promotion. Most never get the memo.

Close these gaps and results become positive, repeatable and scalable—store by store.

Training a workforce consistently across locations
Training is store-manager-dependent, so quality is wildly inconsistent across a network of hundreds of locations.
Comms gap icon
Communications don’t reliably reach the frontline
Change management, like new promos, POS changes and policy updates takes months to reliably reach all stores.
In Insights icon
Food safety compliance is tough to scale
The FDA’s Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) requires documented, verifiable training—paper checklists don't meet the standard.

Compliance debt is constant
High turnover means food handler certifications expire faster than they're renewed.

AI for the Frontline

AI isn’t a feature we added. It’s the architecture we’re built around, showing up in two ways: intelligence built directly into our platform, and Axonify’s intelligence integrated into the AI tools your enterprise already runs.

Max Assistant acts as an onboarding resource for new hires and provides company and product information in the flow of work. Max Coach is part of an employee’s personalized learning plan, identifying when an employee needs additional guidance and providing role-play support, so managers can focus on high-value personal coaching.

Grocery Frontline Enablement Platform FAQ

How is Axonify different from our current Learning Management Systems?

“You can deliver training, but if people walk away and they’re not able to change what they do in the workplace, then it’s really all for naught. The science around the retention piece and creating habits is what drew us to Axonify and made us realize this is something we needed to invest in, something that would revolutionize the way we looked at training,” says Carol Henry, Director of Human Resources at Longo’s. Read the case study here.

Unlike traditional learning management systems, which rely on a company email and scheduled training time, Axonify is built for frontline teams. Axonify reaches every employee on a mobile or desktop device, whether they’re full-time or part-time and it doesn’t stop at training. It helps associates build confidence and perform, every day.

In addition to training, Axonify becomes the daily touchpoint for frontline teams, guiding them in their flow of work and providing communications and execution tools to make sure teams are in sync and coordinating action across locations. Axonify insights provide a greater understanding of staff readiness and confidence, which are critical to closing gaps before they form.

Does Axonify help with associate retention?

Yes. Structured, consistent onboarding measurably improves 90-day retention in hourly roles. Longo’s has seen a 7% decrease in turnover since adopting Axonify. Read more here.

How quickly can new hires get up to speed on the floor?

Axonify onboards new employees in days, not weeks. Northgate Gonzales Market cut onboarding time from 3-4 weeks to just one. Read more here.

Does Axonify work for part-time employees without a company device or email?

Yes. Axonify works anywhere, whether you want employees using a dedicated company mobile or desktop device, or their own phones, so training doesn’t depend on who has an inbox or a spare minute in the break room.

How does Axonify get new product launches and promotions to every store consistently?

Axonify provides the tools HQ and Managers need to communicate, action and track initiatives across locations and individual associates. Rollout, Axonify’s agentic AI experience, intelligently builds launch plans: developing the training materials, communications, checklists, audits and guides every store needs to execute consistently. Axonify tracks readiness across teams and individuals, giving management the ability to proactively identify any gaps before they turn into safety or performance issues.

Can Axonify help reduce shrink and improve loss prevention compliance across stores?

Yes. Rather than a single loss-prevention video in week one, Axonify continuously reinforces loss prevention behaviors store-wide and gives you documented proof of compliance for auditors. One national grocery chain saw an average shrink improvement of $4.8K per store when using Axonify.
