Critico AI

Open Critico AI, connect your HRIS or upload a CSV, and set up your first review cycle in minutes. Pick a cadence, choose ready-to-use templates by role or competency, and define privacy rules (e.g., anonymous peer input, manager-visible only). Add reviewers, customize rating scales, and launch through Slack or email. As responses arrive, the system groups similar points, highlights outliers, and suggests follow-up questions you can send with one click. By the time the deadline hits, you’ll have a clean summary per person—strengths, gaps, and concrete next steps—without chasing forms or stitching together spreadsheets.

For 360 reviews, start with a role-based template or create your own. Select peers, direct reports, cross-functional partners, and an optional self-review. The AI proposes targeted prompts by skill level (e.g., communication for ICs, delegation for managers, strategic impact for directors). It drafts examples from submitted comments to reduce vague statements, checks tone for clarity, and surfaces rating inconsistencies for calibration. When you’re ready, convert insights into objectives with owners, due dates, and check-ins. Link goals to team OKRs, auto-schedule progress updates, and push reminders to keep plans on track between cycles.

Use Critico AI to make weekly 1:1s productive. The agenda builder pulls recent wins, blockers, sentiment from pulse polls, and goal progress into a focused outline. You’ll get prompts to ask better questions, quick recognition suggestions to celebrate progress, and a space to capture notes that auto-generate action items. Employees can draft self-assessments using their own work logs, meeting notes, and project artifacts; the assistant helps structure the review, remove bias-prone language, and align outcomes to competencies. Recognition and light gamification keep momentum high—send kudos, track streaks for completed goals, and spotlight contributions at standups or all-hands.

HR and People Ops can run quick health checks without disrupting schedules. Launch pulse surveys to a sample or the whole org, protect identities where required, and view heatmaps by team, location, level, or tenure. Benchmark scores across time and departments, set calibration rules to standardize ratings, and watch risk flags for attrition or burnout. Use filters to validate fairness across demographic slices, export summaries for leadership, and integrate with your BI stack. Rollout is straightforward: pilot with one department, gather anonymous input on the process, and scale companywide with templates, automations, and clear guidance—turning feedback into steady improvement rather than a once-a-year scramble.
