Lattice

Lattice is used by HR and People teams to run performance management and employee engagement programs. Primary use cases: (1) Performance reviews — configuring and running quarterly or annual review cycles with 360-degree feedback (self, manager, peer, upward), scoring frameworks, and calibration sessions; (2) OKR management — setting company objectives that cascade to team and individual goals with progress tracking; (3) 1:1 meeting support — structured meeting templates and talking points so managers have productive weekly check-ins with direct reports; (4) Pulse surveys — measuring employee engagement, belonging, and manager effectiveness with benchmarks against industry data; (5) Compensation reviews — managing salary bands, merit increases, and equity grants in a structured workflow. Lattice doesn't replace your core HRIS (BambooHR, Workday) — it integrates with it to add the performance layer.

Lattice is better for companies that want a comprehensive performance management suite alongside engagement — if you need OKR tracking, 360-degree reviews, 1:1 tools, and engagement surveys in one platform, Lattice's breadth is strong. Lattice is also well-regarded for its compensation management module. Culture Amp is better for companies that prioritize employee experience measurement and action — its survey science, benchmarking database (built from 6,500+ organizations), and action planning tools for improving engagement scores are more sophisticated than Lattice's. Culture Amp also has stronger manager effectiveness analytics. If engagement and culture measurement is your primary concern, Culture Amp. If you want the full performance management suite with engagement as a component, Lattice.

Lattice uses modular pricing: Performance Management (reviews + goals + 1:1s) $11/person/month, Engagement (surveys + eNPS) $4/person/month, Grow (career development + competencies) $6/person/month, Compensation $6/person/month. Modules can be purchased individually or bundled — a full suite runs approximately $20–25/person/month. For a 200-person company using all modules, expect $48,000–60,000/year. Lattice requires annual contracts with minimum headcount commitments. Volume discounts are available for larger organizations. Compared to competitors: Culture Amp starts at $5/person/month for surveys only; Betterworks is enterprise-priced (custom); Leapsome starts at $8/person/month bundled. Lattice is mid-market in pricing — accessible for Series B+ companies but not for pre-revenue startups.
