Employee goal setting software
Turn priorities into measurable goals
OKR software on your org structure: set strategic, department, team and personal goals, measure them with weighted key results, and roll progress up.
Company goals stop at the leadership deck
Objectives sit in a quarterly deck, progress in spreadsheets, Slack threads and email. By week 6 nobody can say which goals are at risk, and reviews run on memory.
Give every goal a real owner, from company to person
Every goal starts with its type: Strategic, Department, Team or Personal. Department and team goals belong to units in your org structure, so ownership changes with it. Access follows roles and each goal's visibility.
Measure every goal with weighted key results
Each key result has a type, a start value and a target, and gets its current value from check-ins, including ones Claude adds through MCP. Weight lets one count more. Progress is the weighted average of key results and sub-goals.
Link each goal to the one above it, up to strategy
Cascading is one field: Parent goal. A department goal links to a strategic goal, a team goal to the department goal, a personal goal to the team goal. Cards show the parent chain; development goals can stay standalone.
Spot goals at risk before the deadline passes
A check-in updates key result values, status (Active, Completed, Cancelled) and confidence (On track, At risk, Off track) in one step, with a comment. SK.AI can add one too: nothing changes until you click Confirm.
Start review ratings from the goals that were agreed
Goals record what was agreed and how it moved; Performance reviews rate it at the end of the period. A Goal evaluation question pulls the goals that end in the chosen period, and its answers can count toward the final score.
Goals that know your structure and your people
Goals use Core HR units and roles. Reviews assess the work, goals set the direction, surveys measure how people feel, and recognition marks good work as it happens.
What is Skailer OKR management software?
Goals & OKRs is the employee goal setting software in the Skailer HR platform. HR teams, managers and employees set strategic, department, team and personal goals owned by units and people from the org structure. Weighted key results measure each goal, check-ins record values, status and confidence, and progress rolls up through parent goals. Access follows roles and each goal's Public or Private setting, and review forms can rate goals ending in the period.
Where goal spreadsheets and OKR tools stop
Teams choosing OKR software usually compare 3 options: spreadsheets and slides, a standalone OKR tool, or goals inside the HR platform.
| Capability | Spreadsheets & slides | Standalone OKR tools | Skailer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Goal owners | Names typed into cells | Usually synced from an HRIS | Units and people from the org structure |
| Progress | Typed in by hand | Usually calculated from key results | Weighted key results and sub-goals, rolled up |
| Alignment | Row references, if any | Varies by vendor | Parent chain shown on every goal card |
| Access | Whoever has the link | Set in the tool's own roles | HR roles with All or Own scope, Private goals |
| Goals in reviews | Copied into the form | Usually linked if the vendor sells reviews | Goal evaluation question for the period |
| Owner leaves | Goals stay with a former employee | Usually reassigned by hand | Goals move to the successor on termination |
