Lattice

Lattice is a people management platform focused on performance and engagement. It helps companies run performance reviews, set and track goals, hold structured one-on-ones, measure employee engagement through surveys, and manage compensation, all connected to an HR information system. Its heritage is what HR teams call people success. Many companies run performance reviews in spreadsheets and documents, which makes them inconsistent, hard to calibrate and disconnected from goals and day-to-day feedback. Lattice provides a structured cycle - self reviews, peer and manager feedback, calibration and analytics - and ties it to continuous practices such as one-on-one agendas, real-time feedback and praise, and goals or OKRs visible across the organisation. Engagement surveys and pulse checks give leaders a regular read on morale, with benchmarks and analysis by team, manager and demographic, which helps spot problems before they become attrition. Compensation tools support salary bands and review cycles connected to performance data, and Lattice's HRIS and payroll offerings aim to make it a primary people platform rather than a point solution. AI features summarise feedback, help managers write reviews and surface trends. The platform suits mid-sized, growing companies that are formalising how they manage people, particularly in technology and knowledge work. The trade-offs are cost per employee and the process discipline required: software does not create a feedback culture on its own, and companies without managers committed to the process get limited value. Alternatives include Culture Amp, strong in engagement surveys and people science; 15Five for manager effectiveness and check-ins; Leapsome, which combines performance, engagement and learning; BambooHR and HiBob for HRIS with performance modules; Rippling and Workday for broader HR suites; and Betterworks for enterprise goal management. Choose Lattice when you want performance reviews, goals, feedback and engagement in one modern system for a growing company.
