How It Works
Structured, consistent, and built from real work.
One system on top of your people data. Pay, promotion, development, and growth decisions backed by evidence. Dependency risks, cultural alignment, and leadership potential visible before they become problems.
Connected objectives
Founders set strategic goals. Managers cascade team objectives and KPIs. The hierarchy is visible and traceable. Everyone knows what they are working towards and how their work contributes to business outcomes.
Performance scorecard
Every role is assessed across four areas: KPIs, Delivery, Behaviours, and Skills. Expectations are written down, comparable, and applied the same way across the organisation. Performance conversations start from facts, not feelings.
Structured reviews
Simple checklists keep reviews consistent. Our AI assistant pre-populates each review from the data it's already received. Managers review, adjust, and approve.
Tool integrations
You can connect to hundreds of tools—including GitHub, Slack, and Jira—through MCP. Delivery data from the stack your team already uses feeds into the performance picture. Reviews reflect actual output, so managers see the full picture without manual entry.

Talent bar
The Talent Bar replaces 1-5 ratings with below / at / above standard. You can see who is below, at, or above the bar. Specific gaps show up for pay, promotion, development, and managed exits.
Data visualisation
No more digging through disconnected HR processes. Skill gaps, retention risk, succession readiness, and performance trends are all visible in one place. Leaders get what they need without the admin.
The Team
Built by people who've managed people.
Our team has spent years managing people, building HR strategy, and shipping enterprise software. People Protocol is the performance system we wished we had.
