Overview

Betterworks is an enterprise-focused continuous performance management platform centered on OKRs and goal-setting. It helps organizations translate strategy into team and individual objectives, track progress transparently, and run continuous check-ins and feedback cycles. The platform combines goal alignment, 1:1s and performance conversations, feedback, engagement polling, calibration, and analytics so managers and HR can drive outcomes, measure progress, and make data-informed performance decisions.
