Betterworks combines OKRs, feedback, performance reviews, and talent intelligence for enterprises. See features, pricing, and use cases.
Betterworks is an enterprise performance management platform founded in 2013 and headquartered in Menlo Park, California. It was built around the idea of connecting OKR-based goal setting to the rest of the performance management cycle, including feedback, reviews, and talent decisions.
The platform was co-founded by Kris Duggan, who led the company as CEO in its early years before stepping away from day-to-day leadership in 2017; Betterworks has continued operating and expanding its product line since then.
Rather than functioning as a standalone OKR tracker, Betterworks combines goals and OKRs, continuous feedback, performance reviews, calibration, succession planning, and AI-powered workforce insights into a single connected system aimed at mid-market and large enterprises.
At the core of Betterworks is goal and OKR management, letting organizations cascade objectives from company strategy down to team and individual goals, with dashboards to track progress in real time.
The platform layers continuous feedback, structured 1-on-1 tools, and formal performance review cycles on top of goal tracking, so managers can connect day-to-day coaching conversations to formal review outcomes.
Higher tiers add talent intelligence features such as calibration workflows for consistent rating decisions across teams, succession planning, skills intelligence, and unified talent profiles, along with AI-assisted development plans and workforce insights.
Betterworks sells three main plans, all priced per user per month: Performance, Performance plus Talent Intelligence, and a custom-quoted Enterprise tier.
The Performance plan starts at 8 dollars per user per month and covers OKR and goal tracking, feedback, review conversations, and manager 1-on-1 tools. The Performance plus Talent Intelligence plan starts at 9 dollars per user per month and adds calibration, succession planning, and skills intelligence.
The Enterprise plan is custom-priced and adds transformational program design, engagement and culture measurement, and a dedicated implementation team. There is no self-serve signup, and Betterworks positions its platform primarily for organizations with 500 or more employees.
