What is Lattice?
Lattice built an AI agent worth visiting, then handed its data to everyone else's.
Lattice runs AI Agent as its own changelog category alongside Performance, Compensation, and Analytics, and the June work built it into something worth opening: the Agent attends 1:1s and captures summaries, action items, and coaching insights, answers data questions with charts rather than prose, and takes voice input. July then pointed the same capability outward. An MCP server exposes Lattice to Claude, OpenAI, and Slack, and AI review drafts are assembled from a person's own 1:1s, feedback, goals, and updates with cited sources. Underneath both, the performance and compensation machinery keeps absorbing manual setup — calibration groups generated from the org chart, approved promotions carried from a review cycle into a comp cycle.
What is Tanda?
Tanda locks bank-detail edits to payroll staff and seals payslips against tampering.
Tanda's workforce and payroll platform shipped a run of payroll controls and HR integrations in a week. Managers can no longer edit employees' bank details, payroll officers can be limited to specific company files, and payslips now carry a QR seal that lenders can verify. It also added Word contract templates for AU and NZ, an ANCC police-check integration, and a notice on the Clerks Award working-from-home variation.

Lattice built an AI agent worth visiting, then handed its data to everyone else's.
◆ Current state
Lattice runs AI Agent as its own changelog category alongside Performance, Compensation, and Analytics, and the June work built it into something worth opening: the Agent attends 1:1s and captures summaries, action items, and coaching insights, answers data questions with charts rather than prose, and takes voice input. July then pointed the same capability outward. An MCP server exposes Lattice to Claude, OpenAI, and Slack, and AI review drafts are assembled from a person's own 1:1s, feedback, goals, and updates with cited sources. Underneath both, the performance and compensation machinery keeps absorbing manual setup — calibration groups generated from the org chart, approved promotions carried from a review cycle into a comp cycle.
◆ Where it's heading
The interesting move is that Lattice stopped assuming it wins by being the app you open. June made the Agent a destination; July made Lattice reachable from Claude, ChatGPT, and Slack instead, which is a bet that being the HR data layer beats owning the chat surface. Review drafts show what that data layer is being accumulated for: the meeting capture, feedback, and goals the Agent has been collecting are now the raw material for the review itself, with citations as the trust mechanism. Compensation is on a slower and more procedural track, closing loops — sending recommendations back for revision, exporting with HRIS IDs attached — rather than adding AI.
◆ Prediction
Expect the review-drafting work and the MCP surface to converge, so a manager can draft an evidence-cited review from Claude or Slack without opening Lattice. Whether compensation gets the same treatment is genuinely unclear from these entries — that area is still being hardened procedurally, and approval chains carry consequences that make an AI draft a harder sell.
Tanda
7.5HR
Tanda locks bank-detail edits to payroll staff and seals payslips against tampering.
◆ Current state
Tanda's workforce and payroll platform shipped a run of payroll controls and HR integrations in a week. Managers can no longer edit employees' bank details, payroll officers can be limited to specific company files, and payslips now carry a QR seal that lenders can verify. It also added Word contract templates for AU and NZ, an ANCC police-check integration, and a notice on the Clerks Award working-from-home variation.
◆ Where it's heading
Tanda Payroll is getting the access controls and fraud protections that larger and franchise employers expect, alongside steady award compliance updates. Hiring and onboarding keep gaining integrations, such as SMS in Hire and police checks.
◆ Prediction
Expect more permission scoping in payroll and further verification or compliance features built on the payslip seal.
