Performance Management with AI Agents

Lattice provides review templates and dashboards. Confirm adds AI agents that coach managers using your company's real people data—not generic prompts.

How Confirm and Lattice Differ

Traditional performance management relies on manager ratings. Managers have limited visibility into their reports' full contributions. The result? Reviews reflect visibility, not actual impact. Confirm adds Organizational Network Analysis (ONA) to measure real contribution patterns.

👁️

Managers have blind spots

Your manager doesn't see the 3am Slack message that saved the launch, the mentorship you provide to new hires, or the cross-functional collaboration that made the project work.

📊

Survey fatigue kills honesty

When employees know their feedback ties to compensation, they game it. "360 reviews" become reputation management exercises, not performance insights.

Reviews happen too late

Annual or even quarterly reviews capture what happened, not what's happening. By the time you spot a problem, your best people have already updated their LinkedIn.

What makes Confirm different

Confirm uses Organizational Network Analysis (ONA) to see performance through the eyes of your entire organization—not just managers.

The Confirm Difference

ONA: See what managers can't

ONA analyzes collaboration patterns across your org—who people go to for help, who drives decisions, who connects siloed teams. This reveals true impact that traditional reviews miss.

  • Identify hidden high-performers before they leave
  • Spot underperformers early, even with good self-marketing skills
  • See collaboration bottlenecks and silos in real-time
  • Make promotion decisions based on evidence, not opinions

Real-time insights, not annual reports

Lattice tells you what happened last quarter. Confirm shows you what's happening now—so you can act before problems become crises.

Lightweight feedback that works

Instead of dreaded review season, Confirm captures quick peer signals throughout the year. Less survey fatigue. More honest data.

AI-powered coaching for managers

Confirm doesn't just show you problems—it helps managers fix them. AI-generated coaching suggestions based on each employee's actual impact and network position.

Common questions

Can we run Confirm alongside Lattice during evaluation?

Yes. Many customers run a pilot with one team before migrating fully. Our implementation team makes this seamless.

Do you support the same review cycle types as Lattice?

Yes — quarterly, annual, 360°, and continuous feedback. Plus AI-assisted calibration that removes bias from the process.

What happens to our Lattice data?

Our team has run dozens of migrations. Historical review data, goals, and employee records we import with full fidelity.

How long does implementation take?

Most teams are live in 4–6 weeks. Our implementation experts have done this before — for companies exactly like yours.

How is ONA different from 360 reviews?

360 reviews ask people to rate their colleagues—which creates gaming and bias. ONA passively analyzes collaboration patterns (who works with whom, who people go to for help) without requiring active feedback.
