Introduction to Sola

An overview of how Sola turns assessment data into real-time, actionable guidance for people decisions.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Overview

At Deeper Signals, our mission is simple: help people understand themselves and turn that understanding into action.

Traditional assessments often fall short. They produce static reports, use complex language, and leave people with insights but no clear direction. Reflection without action doesn’t change behavior.

We built Deeper Signals to do things differently. Our platform delivers fast, fair, and predictive assessments that reveal what truly drives people at work. The goal is clarity: how people think, collaborate, and lead.

Sola is the next step in that mission.


What is Sola?

Sola is an AI-powered assessment assistant that transforms assessment data into personalized, real-time guidance.

It helps you take action in the moments that matter, whether you are:

  • Exploring Core Drivers to better understand yourself or others

  • Preparing for hiring decisions and structured interviews

  • Giving meaningful feedback grounded in data

  • Leading teams through change with confidence

Sola connects insights to action, without added complexity.


What Sola helps you do

Sola uses assessment results to deliver practical support, including:

  • Explaining what the data actually means in clear, human language

  • Recommending next steps based on your specific context

  • Providing ready-to-use outputs like coaching advice, interview questions, and development plans

It doesn’t just surface insights. It delivers insights you can use, exactly when you need them.

How to write prompts effectively

Practical tips for getting the most useful responses from Sola.

Sola responds best to clear, focused questions, the same kind you would ask a coach, analyst, or people leader. The tips below will help you get more relevant, actionable answers.


Be clear and specific

Include context such as the person’s role, your goal, or the behavior you want to understand.

Good example

  • Create a development plan for a high-potential analyst, Simon Harris, based on his Core Drivers results

Less helpful example

  • What should I do with this report?


Ask one thing at a time

Sola works best when focused. Break complex requests into smaller steps.

Good example

  • Compare two candidates for a leadership role: email1, email2

  • Follow up with: Build an onboarding plan for the selected candidate

Less helpful example

  • Compare these two people and build a full onboarding plan


Use plain language

There’s no need for formal or technical phrasing. Simple works best.

Good example

  • How can I support this employee’s curiosity and drive for Achievement? The user is [email protected]

Less helpful example

  • Facilitate individualized motivation optimization per assessed competencies


Avoid vague or generic requests

Sola needs direction to be useful. The more specific you are, the better the output.

Good example

  • How can I improve collaboration in the Operations team when everyone shares the Candid Core Driver?

Less helpful example

  • Make this useful


Pro tip: If you’re unsure where to start, describe the situation you’re facing and the outcome you want. Sola will help you bridge the gap.
