Performance Calibration Software
You killed the annual review.
Now how do you decide raises?
Continuous feedback is a good system. But it breaks down at comp time. Without structured calibration, managers make raise decisions from memory, recency, and gut instinct. Confirm gives HR teams the calibration layer that connects feedback to defensible comp decisions.

The hidden cost of ditching annual reviews
Manager advocacy decides comp
Without structured calibration, the raise goes to whoever's manager argues loudest in the room, not whoever drove the most impact. Continuous feedback doesn't fix this. Calibration does.
Recency bias runs the show
Managers remember the last 60 days. Employees who had a strong Q1 and a quiet Q4 lose. The feedback collection system was good. The comp system still runs on memory.
Cross-functional work is invisible
The employee who mentored three people on other teams, unblocked a critical project, and served as the connective tissue between engineering and product? Their manager doesn't know any of that happened.
No audit trail
Calibration decisions made in a conference room on a whiteboard are impossible to defend. When an employee pushes back on their rating, HR has nothing to show them. No data, no documentation, no rationale.
The gap nobody talks about
Continuous feedback gets you data. Calibration software turns that data into decisions your team can live with.
Most HR teams moved to continuous feedback and assumed the comp problem would sort itself out. It didn't. The feedback loop improved. The calibration process stayed manual, political, and inconsistent. Confirm closes the gap with a calibration layer built around what employees actually did, not what their managers remember.
How Confirm makes calibration defensible
Three components work together: ONA behavioral data, AI-generated performance profiles, and real-time bias detection.
ONA data shows actual contribution
Organizational Network Analysis captures behavioral signals from Slack, email, calendar, and project tools. Every employee enters calibration with an evidence profile, not just a manager's narrative.
AI profiles built before the meeting starts
Confirm synthesizes ONA data, performance history, and manager notes into a calibration summary for each employee. Managers arrive informed. Sessions focus on decisions, not reconstruction.
Real-time bias detection
When a calibration discussion drifts toward advocacy or recency, Confirm flags it and surfaces the objective data. Demographic disparity checks run automatically before decisions are final.
Audit trail built in
Every calibration decision is documented with rationale and evidence. When an employee asks why they got a 3 instead of a 4, HR has an answer. When legal asks for documentation, you have it.
What HR leaders say
"We had great continuous feedback but our calibration was still a political mess. Confirm gave us the structure to actually use the data we'd been collecting. First cycle, we cut our calibration time from three weeks to one afternoon."
VP People, 800-person SaaS company
"The ONA data was the piece we didn't know we were missing. We'd see a manager fight hard for an employee and wonder if they deserved it. Now we know. Calibration went from a debate to a review."

How it works
Connect your systems
Integrate with Slack, Teams, and your HRIS. Confirm builds your org network automatically from behavioral signals across tools your team already uses.
Profiles generate before calibration
Before your calibration session, Confirm generates an evidence profile for every employee: ONA data, performance history, and AI-drafted summaries. No pre-work required from managers.
Calibrate with data, not gut instinct
Managers calibrate together. Confirm surfaces bias patterns and rating inconsistencies in real time. Most teams finish in a single 2-4 hour session instead of 2-3 weeks.
Comp decisions that hold up
Performance data flows into merit planning with full documentation. Every decision has a rationale on file. No employee question you can't answer. No legal exposure from undocumented calls.
