Problem
Companies rely on scattered tools, manual data collection, and manager memory to conduct performance reviews, 1:1 meetings, and feedback cycles, leading to lengthy processes, bias, and incomplete visibility into employee contributions.
Solution
Windmill builds a permission‑aware context graph that continuously aggregates people data from HRIS, Slack, GitHub, Linear, calendars, and other work tools. An AI agent, Windy, uses this graph to auto‑generate self‑review drafts, 1:1 agendas, continuous feedback summaries, and calibration pre‑reads, reducing manual effort and improving fairness. Managers can edit AI‑suggested content, add or adjust items, and finalize reviews in minutes. The platform also supports pulse surveys and provides analytics that surface trends and action items without manual analysis. By linking evidence, standards, and perspectives, Windmill enables data‑driven people decisions across the organization.
Target Audience
Windmill is aimed at people operations, HR leaders, and engineering or product managers in mid‑size to large technology companies that need efficient, data‑driven performance management and decision‑making.
