Effy AI is a performance review tool that aims to kill survey fatigue at its roots. It is designed to fill that gap between clunky spreadsheets and overblown HR suites. The tool uses AI to create review forms in minutes, making it much easier to use than templates.

The AI is there to pick up on strengths and areas to grow by analyzing feedback text. Reports are ready instantly with no heavy Excel work required. Effy AI even supports 360‑degree reviews, pulling insights from peers, bosses, direct reports — and bundles it on your behalf.

The tool is good for both small and big teams, with Effy AI offering it for free for up to five users. After that, they charge a small amount per seat per month. However, we should add that Effy AI doesn’t have every HR feature and neither does it want to. It, however, makes reviews better than anyone else. Plus, it’s set up quickly.

As you would expect from a professional tool, Effy AI encrypts all the data, while enabling refined access to it. And that matters a ton when you’re dealing with private feedback. Also cool is that it integrates with Slack and Teams, providing feedback where people already work.

So if you are looking for fast‑moving, smart feedback without drowning in cost or complexity, Effy AI is the tool for you. It blends AI magic with real workflow tools to make things easier. Also, it doesn’t pretend to be a full HR suite, but for what it does — including performance reviews, 360‑feedback, quick check‑ins — it does it amazingly well. Check it out.
