About
15Five is a comprehensive, AI-powered performance management platform designed to help HR teams and people leaders build high-performing, highly engaged organizations. The platform integrates core HR workflows—performance reviews, 1-on-1s, OKRs, employee engagement surveys, and compensation management—into a single cohesive system that gives managers and executives real-time visibility into workforce health. At the heart of 15Five's AI layer is AMAYA, an AI agent that answers questions about your people data and surfaces meaningful, actionable insights without manual analysis. Complementing AMAYA is the Kona AI Coach, which empowers managers with personalized coaching guidance at scale. Together, these tools reduce the administrative burden on HR while enabling data-driven decisions around hiring, retention, and leadership development. 15Five's Engage module helps organizations understand employee sentiment and create targeted action plans. The Perform module provides everything needed to run structured reviews and align individual contributions with company goals. Compensation tools tie pay directly to performance outcomes, making total rewards conversations more transparent and defensible. The platform is purpose-built for mid-market and enterprise organizations that want to reduce regrettable turnover, improve manager effectiveness, and maximize employee performance. Customers report measurable outcomes including significant reductions in turnover and retention rates above 94%. 15Five integrates with popular HRIS and productivity tools, making it easy to embed into existing people operations stacks.
