Performance Is Live in Trainual 🌱
Review season shouldn't mean rebuilding a year of someone's work from Slack scrollback, a half-finished doc, and whatever you happen to remember from the last two weeks. And it shouldn't be the only time anyone talks about how they're doing.
Development should happen all year, tied to the expectations you already wrote down and the work your team actually did.
Now it does. Performance is live in Trainual, so how you train, run, and grow your team finally lives in one place.
Feedback and praise, anytime 🎉
Celebrate wins out loud and handle the hard stuff privately. Every piece of feedback and praise stays on the record, so when review time comes, it's a recap, not a scramble.
Growth areas that come with a game plan 🌱
Set growth areas that carry across review cycles and link directly to the training that closes the gap. "Grow into the next level" stops being a vague ask and becomes a path someone can actually follow.
Ratings that show the trend ⭐
Log a quick 1–5 on how someone's meeting expectations, whenever it's relevant. Ratings chart into a clear graph over time, so you catch a dip and fix it months before review season.
Full-picture overviews in one click ✨
AI-generated overviews pull from training, operations, and performance to show what's going well and what's worth a conversation. Walk into every 1:1 already knowing where things stand.
Reviews that pull it all together 🔥
When it's time for a review cycle, the whole year is already there: feedback, ratings, growth areas, progress, even your private notes and reminders. Draft privately, reference real evidence in the conversation, and nobody starts from a blank page.
Built on what Trainual already knows
Most review tools start from zero. Performance starts from the roles, responsibilities, and training you've already documented in Trainual, so people are reviewed against the standard you set, not gut feel.
Already running the Operations suite? Your goals, updates, meetings, and scorecards feed straight into reviews. Growth areas connect to existing goals, and a year of real activity becomes review-time evidence automatically. The reviews practically write themselves.
One less tool to patch together
Performance replaces the standalone review software, the rigid review module in your payroll system, or the Word doc template you've been walking through by hand. Keep your HR and payroll system for pay. Trainual syncs your people straight from it and becomes where your team trains, operates, and grows.
Join the Performance Party 🥳
