Betterworks

Betterworks is a comprehensive, enterprise-grade performance management platform that leverages Artificial Intelligence to transform how organizations approach employee growth, alignment, and productivity. It moves companies away from traditional, static annual reviews towards a dynamic, continuous performance management model. The platform is designed to engage the entire workforce, from individual employees to top-level executives, by creating transparency, fostering a culture of feedback, and aligning everyone's efforts with the company's most critical strategic priorities.

At its core, Betterworks integrates goal-setting, continuous conversations, peer feedback, and talent analytics into a single, unified system. With the power of AI, it makes these processes faster, easier, and more effective. AI assistants help employees write clearer goals, guide managers in delivering more constructive feedback, and streamline the creation of performance summaries, ultimately freeing up time for more meaningful, human-centric interactions.

How to use Betterworks

Using Betterworks involves a continuous cycle of alignment, execution, and development. First, leadership sets the company's strategic priorities using a framework like Objectives and Key Results (OKRs). Then, teams and individuals create their own goals, aligning them with the overarching company objectives for full transparency. Throughout the quarter, employees and managers use the platform for regular check-ins and 1:1 conversations to track progress, discuss obstacles, and adjust priorities. The platform facilitates giving and receiving real-time feedback, with AI tools like Feedback Assist helping to craft messages that are constructive and unbiased. At the end of a cycle, managers use Conversation Assist to summarize performance, drawing on data from goals and feedback. HR leaders and people analysts utilize the advanced analytics dashboards to gain a clear view of talent, identify performance trends, spot retention risks, and make data-driven decisions about promotions, development, and compensation.
