Employees assess their own period on wins, growth edges and evidence, and get an AI summary that turns raw notes into discussion points for the review talk.
Quick answer
Self-reviews turn into diary entries — require evidence for every claim, balance highlights with growth areas and support asks, and the AI summary arrives as the manager's talking agenda.
Self-reviews fail in two directions: brag without proof, or deflate into 'everything was fine'. This form pins every claim to evidence — wins, admitted misses, growth edges — then the AI summary structures the notes into discussion points, so the review meeting starts from a shared page instead of a blank silence.
