For 20 yearsThe Smice method

Your standards are promises.
We check that they are kept.

The right standards. At the right time. By the right people.

For 20 years, Smice has been helping networks turn their standards into reality on the ground. We are the only provider to cover the whole chain: you define them, your teams learn and self-assess them, our auditors and mystery shoppers check them, you correct. And the cycle starts again.

A word from the founder

I'm Julien and I founded Smice 20 years ago. I'd love to tell you about our philosophy, our approach to AI and what we have built to help you improve your customer experience.

Julien MondhardFounder and CEO

The problem

Your standards always break in the same place: between two links.

01

Written, but not shared

The head office binder never makes it to the counter.

02

Shared, but not understood

People know the rule, but not the behaviour or the reason.

03

Understood, but not applied

Rush hours, staff turnover, habits take over.

04

Applied, but never checked

Without measurement, nobody knows what really happens on the ground.

Other providers handle one link. Smice handles the whole chain.

The Smice cycle

Six steps. One thread.

Each step repairs a link in the chain. Smice equips and runs all six, on the same data.

For us, Smice is a tool for driving the best possible experience rather than just a management tool. We spot the blocking points and put tailored action plans in place.

AI at Smice

We took the measure of AI very early. It is already working for you.

As soon as large language models arrived, we built them into the core of Horizon and Pulse. Not as a gimmick: where thousands of reports, verbatims and self-assessments are more than a team can read, AI reads everything, connects everything, and tells you where to start.
