Capability · Report Card

Performance, clear
and in context.

Compass generates a role-aware performance snapshot per person — KPIs, attendance, peer signals, and an AI-generated plain-language summary — plus gamified badges, earned milestones, and learning history. You see your own; your manager sees their team's aggregate; HR sees the org. Privacy boundaries are enforced, not optional.

Bands and signals, not a single reductive score. AI summary is read-aloud insight, not a verdict. Manager sees team aggregate — individual drill-down is policy-bounded.

What it is

A snapshot that tells you where you stand — without reducing you to a number

Performance reviews often arrive as surprises because the ongoing signal is invisible. Compass makes it visible — continuously. KPI pacing, attendance record, peer signals, and an AI plain-language analysis of what all of that means together. Scored by category band, not collapsed into a single rating.

📊
Multi-signal aggregation
The Report Card pulls together KPI pacing, attendance data, peer signals, task completion rate, and learning history into one view. Each signal is visible with its source — you always know what data is being used and where it came from.
🧠
AI plain-language summary
Compass generates a plain-language analysis of what the signals mean together — not a verdict, a reading. "Your KPI pacing is strong but attendance patterns suggest inconsistency in the second half of the period" is more useful than a score of 72.
🏆
Gamified badges & milestones
Compass awards badges for genuine achievements — consistent attendance, KPI targets met, learning modules completed. Milestones mark meaningful career moments. The gamification layer is motivational, not competitive — no leaderboard, no ranking against peers.
Signal in practice

Report Card — employee view

Below is what the employee Report Card looks like in Compass. The radar chart shows category scores across five dimensions. The badge row shows earned achievements. The AI summary reads the pattern aloud in plain language.

AI plain-language summary

"Your reliability and quality signals are strong this quarter — consistent attendance and high-quality output across your assigned tasks. Output pacing is your area to watch: KPI actuals came in at 72% of target, likely driven by scope changes in March. Collaboration signals from peers are positive. Overall: solid quarter with one gap to close on output volume."

AI-generated Plain language Decision-support, not verdict
How it works

Five steps from signals to snapshot

01 — AGGREGATE
Pull all signals

Compass pulls KPI pacing, attendance records, task completion data, peer signals, and learning history into one data object per person. Every signal has a source label — no data appears without attribution.

02 — SCORE
Category banding

Each signal maps to one of five categories: Reliability, Output, Collaboration, Growth, Quality. Compass calculates a band score per category — not a single composite number. You see where each dimension stands, not a blended average that hides the detail.

03 — SUMMARIZE
AI plain-language

Compass generates a plain-language summary of the category scores and what they mean together — what is strong, what has a gap, what likely explains it. The summary is a reading of the data, not a verdict. Editable by HR where policy allows.

04 — RECOGNIZE
Earn badges & milestones

Badges are awarded automatically when defined thresholds are met — a KPI target hit, a streak broken, a learning module completed. Milestones mark meaningful moments and are visible in the employee's own Report Card history.

05 — REVIEW
Role-scoped view

Employees see their own Report Card. Managers see their team's aggregate — individual drill-down is bounded by policy, not just hope. HR sees the org view. Each role gets what they need to make a good decision, not everything that exists.

Honesty

What the Report Card is not

Performance data is serious. We have made deliberate design choices about what Compass will and will not do with it.

Not a single reductive score
There is no single "performance score" in Compass. Category bands show where you stand across five dimensions. Collapsing all of that into one number loses too much signal and too often produces a misleading ranking.
Not used for automated hire/fire
Report Card data is decision-support. Compass does not feed an automated termination or promotion system. The data informs a conversation — the human manager and HR make the call.
Manager has no unconstrained drill-down
Managers see their team's aggregate Report Card view. Individual drill-down beyond what policy allows requires explicit HR approval and is logged in the audit trail. The boundary is enforced at the data layer, not just the UI.
Not AI judging behavior
The AI summary reads structured signal data — scores and pacing numbers — not behavior, tone, or effort. It does not infer personality, assess attitude, or make inferences beyond what the structured data shows.
Signals with sources
Every data point in the Report Card shows its source — KPI upload from Finance, attendance from Compass, peer signal from last review cycle. No data appears without attribution.
Employee owns their own view
Employees always have access to their own Report Card — they are never in the dark about how they stand. The data is theirs to see, understand, and bring to a manager conversation if they choose.
Who it helps

One snapshot, three perspectives

The same underlying data renders differently by role. Each person sees what they need — and only what their role permits.

Employee
Your own snapshot
Employees see their own full Report Card — category scores, AI summary, badges, milestones, and learning history. No surprises at annual review time. The signal is always live, and the employee is always the first to see it.
Manager
Team aggregate view
Managers see their team's aggregate Report Card — which category bands are trending well, where the team has gaps, and how badge/milestone distribution looks across the team. Individual Report Cards require explicit authorization. Team-level patterns are always available.
HR & Employer
Org-level analytics
HR and leadership see org-wide Report Card analytics — how category scores distribute across departments, which milestones are being earned, where learning engagement is high or low. Input for talent strategy, not a case file on individual employees.
Performance data that builds trust

Signals. Summary. Recognition.

Report Card & Analytics is live in Compass. Connect your data sources and Compass starts building snapshots from day one — visible to each person as soon as enough signal exists, with AI summaries that read the pattern honestly.
