Paste your messy notes about a team member. Walk away with a structured, balanced, specific review ready to submit.

Performance reviews are painful because they require translating months of memory into structured written feedback — fairly, specifically, and constructively. Most managers either write something vague ("great collaborator!") or spend two hours agonising over phrasing. Claude handles the structure. You provide the truth.

1

Give Claude the context

Start by telling Claude who you're reviewing, what level they are, and what dimensions matter. The more specific, the more useful the output.

Paste your raw observations

Don't filter yourself here. Paste messy notes, bullet points, Slack messages, whatever you have. Claude will synthesise it.

Generate the structured draft

Claude writes the full review: overall summary, per-dimension ratings and commentary, and a forward-looking closing.

Sharpen with specifics

Generic feedback feels unfair. Ask Claude to strengthen any section with more concrete language tied to real outcomes.

Calibrate the tone

Ask Claude to adjust the balance — softer for a fragile conversation, more direct for a high performer who needs honest feedback to grow.
