The employee calibration software that replaces politics with data.
We built the only AI-powered employee calibration software around what people actually do — not what their manager thinks of them. ONA science replaces opinions with objective evidence. Your next calibration cycle: hours, not weeks.
Traditional calibration is broken — and everyone knows it.
You gather 10 managers in a room. Each one rated their employees using their own subjective criteria. Now they're supposed to align. What actually happens? The loudest voice wins. The managers who advocate best for their people win. The employees who worked remotely, changed teams, or worked cross-functionally lose.
This is why your top performers leave. They know their work isn't being seen. They watched someone get promoted for visibility while their actual contributions went unrecognized. They lost faith in the system.
And the cost is enormous. McKinsey estimates that replacing a single employee costs 50-200% of their annual salary. For your top performers, multiply that by the team impact lost when they walk out the door.
The fix isn't better spreadsheets. It's better data. Confirm's employee calibration software gives your calibration sessions an objective foundation — so the best people win, not the best-connected ones.
"[Confirm finds] which workers are vital to the flow of information."
"An effective way of reducing bias and creating an even playing field."
"[Confirm] creates a fairer playing field by expanding leaders' visibility."
ONA data makes calibration objective — not a debate
Organizational Network Analysis passively measures who's actually driving impact across your company. Before your calibration session starts, every employee has an objective evidence profile — collaboration patterns, cross-functional reach, influence signals, and contribution data. Managers arrive informed. Discussions stay grounded in facts.
Passive data collection
ONA pulls from Slack, email, calendar, GitHub, and Jira automatically. No surveys, no additional work for employees or managers.
Cross-team visibility
See impact that crosses team boundaries — the engineer who mentored 5 others, the PM who unblocked three departments. These contributions are invisible without ONA.
Catch bias before it corrupts your calibration
Confirm's bias detection flags the three most common calibration failure modes: recency bias (over-weighting recent events), affinity bias (rating people like yourself higher), and visibility bias (rewarding people who are most seen, not most impactful). Each flag comes with objective data to redirect the conversation.
Real-time bias flags
If a manager consistently rates their in-office employees higher than remote ones, Confirm surfaces the ONA data showing actual contributions across both groups.
Objective override data
Every bias flag comes with the network data that tells a different story. Managers can see evidence — not just a warning — and make a better decision.
Calibration in hours. Not weeks.
Most companies spend 2-3 weeks on calibration — pre-work, sessions, post-sessions, debates. Confirm compresses this into a single session for most teams. The data is pre-loaded. The profiles are ready. Managers show up to make decisions, not to reconstruct their year.
Pre-built employee profiles
GPT-4 synthesizes ONA data, review history, and manager feedback into concise performance summaries for every employee before your session begins.
2.5x more top performers identified
When calibration is grounded in objective data, hidden top performers surface. Companies using Confirm identify 2.5x more high-impact employees than with traditional methods.
