Watch months of feedback
become a review in minutes
Performance systems should start with people, not paperwork
Zinc integrates with your regular meetings to track real feedback and progress. It pulls insights from what's already being said—so nothing gets lost, and no one has to change how they work to get it.

The easiest review you'll ever write generate
Zinc scans feedback from months of 1-on-1s and team meetings, spots recurring themes, and links each insight to the exact moment where it was discussed. When review season arrives, you'll have a performance review based on evidence, not vague recollections.
Feedback that's
actually useful
Written reviews are often filled with soft language and vague compliments. Zinc captures performance feedback as it happens—highlighting what was said, how it was said, and why it matters—so employees get concrete examples they can learn from.
