Klaar

Klaar is an AI-powered performance management platform designed to replace traditional, retrospective review cycles with continuous, predictive performance systems. The platform positions itself as making performance management 'Unbiased. Predictive. Transformative' by leveraging generative AI to reduce administrative burden and provide data-backed insights for HR leaders, managers, and employees. The platform is modular, allowing organizations to adopt specific capabilities including Goals & OKRs, Performance Reviews & 1:1s, Surveys & 360s, Calibrations, and IDPs & Competencies. Across these modules, Klaar emphasizes AI-driven functionality such as automated feedback drafting based on real inputs rather than memory, goal success forecasting with predictive insights, AI-powered fairness recommendations during calibrations, and real-time nudges delivered through Slack and Microsoft Teams for in-the-flow-of-work coaching. Key capabilities include an AI goal library tailored to company context, weighted scoring for OKR tracking with real-time progress syncing from tools like Jira and Salesforce, automated review cycles with smart reminders, 360-degree feedback with AI-generated summaries and sentiment analysis, unified calibration views with bias reduction support, and mentorship matching for career development. The platform integrates with common workplace tools including Slack, Microsoft Teams, Gmail, Outlook, Jira, Salesforce, Greenhouse, BambooHR, Google Workspace, and Excel Online. Founded in 2021 in Bengaluru, India, by Sharthok Chakraborty and Atri Roy, Klaar has raised $6.67M in total funding including a $5M Series A led by Prime Venture Partners in September 2025. The company expanded into the US market in late 2025 and currently employs approximately 35 people. Klaar is best suited for mid-market and enterprise organizations (51+ employees) seeking a configurable performance layer that can operate alongside existing HRIS systems, with implementations typically completed in 4-6 weeks. The platform offers transparent pricing with three tiers: Starter (₹59/employee/month), Growth (₹89/employee/month), and Enterprise (₹129/employee/month), all billed annually with a 14-day free trial. The India-market pricing makes Klaar particularly cost-effective for organizations operating in or expanding to the Indian market.
