Why Ambermonk
Teams outgrow ad-hoc docs and email chains. Ambermonk brings structure without the noise.
Product
From phased timelines and custom forms to flexible sign-in and exports — built for HR, managers, employees, and external reviewers.
Built for adoption
Clear phases, obvious to-dos, and admin tools that reduce chasing — not another tool your team ignores.
Employees land on a dashboard that lists pending self-reviews, peer feedback, and nominations — sorted by urgency, not buried in email.
Phases open and close on schedule. When peer review isn't live yet, people aren't confused by forms they can't submit.
Admins monitor completion by employee and cycle, nudge stragglers with context, and export when it's time to close the books.
Import your roster, trust your SSO domain for staff, and configure external domains with the sign-in method that fits each partner.
How it works
Four steps your organization can follow every cycle.
HR sets the cycle name, phased dates, form templates, and who participates — including anonymous feedback options.
Employees complete self-reviews and nominate peer reviewers. External domains get the sign-in method you configured.
Peers and managers submit structured reviews on schedule. Admins track who's done and who needs a nudge.
HR releases consolidated feedback when the cycle is ready. Employees view results in one place; exports feed your records.
Sign-in
Employees, partners, and external reviewers each get a sign-in flow that fits — configured by your admins, enforced automatically.
In Settings, HR adds trusted domains and picks Google, Magic link, or Generate link for each one. Internal staff typically use Google; partners might use magic links or employee-generated links — all enforced automatically at sign-in.
For teams
HR runs the cycle. Managers and employees participate. External voices when you need them.

FAQ
Quick answers before you book a demo.
Teams that run structured performance reviews — from growing companies to enterprises that need cycle control, peer feedback, nominations, and HR oversight in one product.
Employees typically use Google (or Microsoft for internal SSO). External collaborators can use magic links sent to their inbox, or — when you configure a domain as Generate link — employees create secure login links for reviewers they nominate. Admins pick the method per domain in Settings.
Yes. Nominate reviewers by email, set their domain's login type, and they authenticate with the method you chose. They only see the forms they were asked to complete — not your full employee directory or admin tools.
Admins control release. Feedback stays hidden until HR or leadership chooses to make it visible — with support for anonymous or attributed responses and per-employee overrides where needed.
Yes. Ambermonk ships with separate templates for each review type. You configure fields — ratings, long text, file uploads, choice lists, and more — and reuse them across cycles.
Most teams start with a pilot cycle: configure forms, import employees, add trusted domains with the right login types, and open the cycle. Timing depends on org size and how complex your review design is.
