Windmill offers an AI-native performance management platform that automates performance reviews by collecting context from daily work across tools like Slack, GitHub, Jira, Asana, and Google Workspace via an AI agent named Windy. It uses conversations and peer feedback to generate self-reviews and structured manager drafts, and includes Smart 1:1s that auto-create coaching-focused meeting agendas. The system builds a continuous context graph from 1:1s, project work, and feedback to reduce review time and improve engagement.
