Write Comprehensive Performance Reviews in Minutes

AI-powered review assistance that helps managers deliver specific, constructive, fair feedback while reducing writing time by 80%

Performance reviews are critical for employee development and retention, yet managers consistently rate them as their most dreaded task. Writing quality varies wildly, with many reviews being vague, late, or biased, undermining the entire performance management process.

The Problem

Managers spend 8-12 hours per review cycle writing evaluations but still produce vague, generic feedback that fails to drive improvement. HR teams struggle with late submissions, inconsistent standards, and potential bias in ratings and comments.

Extreme Time Investment

Managers spend 40-60 hours per review cycle for a team of 8-10 people, pulling time away from coaching, strategic work, and their own productivity.

Vague, Unhelpful Feedback

Lacking examples and specific language, most reviews include generic statements like "good communicator" or "needs improvement" that provide no actionable guidance for development.

Inconsistent Standards & Bias

Rating distributions vary dramatically across managers, with some being overly harsh and others inflating scores. Protected groups often receive vague positive feedback that masks lower ratings.
