About Lattice
Lattice built an AI agent worth visiting, then handed its data to everyone else's.
Lattice runs AI Agent as its own changelog category alongside Performance, Compensation, and Analytics, and the June work built it into something worth opening: the Agent attends 1:1s and captures summaries, action items, and coaching insights, answers data questions with charts rather than prose, and takes voice input. July then pointed the same capability outward. An MCP server exposes Lattice to Claude, OpenAI, and Slack, and AI review drafts are assembled from a person's own 1:1s, feedback, goals, and updates with cited sources. Underneath both, the performance and compensation machinery keeps absorbing manual setup — calibration groups generated from the org chart, approved promotions carried from a review cycle into a comp cycle.
