Overview

Aspen is an AI-powered people development coach embedded in Slack. Continuous feedback, career coaching, and team insights — no new tools, no context switching.

For Employees

Give and request feedback naturally Send recognition or constructive feedback to any colleague through a simple conversation or slash command. Request 360 feedback from peers when you want it — not just during review season.

Build your performance portfolio Log achievements as they happen. Aspen captures wins from your conversations and surfaces them when it matters — so nothing gets lost between review cycles.

Get career coaching on demand Talk through growth questions, work challenges, or development goals with an AI coach that knows your context. Available anytime, not just when your manager has a free slot.

Check in on your own terms Pulse check-ins let you reflect on how you are feeling, track your engagement over time, and share what is on your mind — in a quick, private conversation.

For Managers

Prep for 1:1s in seconds Get a briefing before every one-on-one — pulse trends, recent achievements, feedback history, and suggested talking points. Walk in prepared without spending 30 minutes digging through notes.

Weekly team digests A weekly summary of team engagement signals and pulse trends, organized by team health. Know what is going on without micromanaging.

Capture notes in conversation Log private manager observations through natural conversation. Notes are auto-tagged by theme and surfaced before your next meeting with that person.

Draft performance reviews with real evidence Generate a complete performance review backed by months of collected feedback, achievements, and pulse data — not last-minute recollections.

Never miss a chance to recognize your team Aspen surfaces who deserves a shout-out based on recent wins and contributions, so recognition happens when it is most meaningful.
