Lattice

What Lattice does

Lattice, operating legally as Degree, Inc., is a people management platform founded in 2015 and headquartered in San Francisco. It provides a unified SaaS platform combining performance management (reviews, talent reviews, PIPs, succession planning, 1:1s, updates, feedback), engagement surveys with AI-powered insights, goals and OKR tracking, career development (Grow), and compensation management. The platform is modular, allowing customers to subscribe to discrete capability suites, with pricing on a per-user subscription basis (annual billing) and quote-based enterprise contracts. Underlying technology integrates with 25+ HRIS, productivity, and communication systems — Workday, BambooHR, Rippling, Gusto, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira — and supports a public V1 API including a Goals Write endpoint and the Lattice MCP for AI chat integration.

The company's AI capabilities are built primarily on OpenAI's GPT models under a Zero Data Retention arrangement, orchestrated through the Lattice AI Agent, which provides always-on assistance including evidence-based review drafts, 1:1 recaps, coaching prompts, anomaly detection in calibration, and voice-to-text interaction. Lattice extended its AI footprint through the March 2026 acquisition of Mandala's AI-native coaching technology. Data assets include engagement benchmarks integrated with Mercer 2025 data across 8 regions, 64 countries, and 16 industries. The company is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR/CCPA compliant, with EU data residency available via AWS infrastructure in Frankfurt and Dublin.

Lattice operates a sales-led GTM model with dedicated field sales for enterprise, inside sales for mid-market, and product-led growth (free interactive tours) for SMB evaluation. The platform serves 5,000+ customer teams across enterprise (Slack, Asana, Robinhood, Discord, Duolingo, NPR, Gusto, Reddit, Cruise, Samsara, PitchBook, LiveRamp), mid-market, and SMB segments spanning technology, financial services, retail, healthcare, and CPG. The company is privately held, having raised $175 million in Series F funding at a $3 billion valuation in January 2022, and reported 42% year-over-year revenue growth in Q1 2026 driven by AI demand.
