Turn your team's Jira work into review drafts you can defend
PerfCopilot reads each person's Jira tickets, epics, and status history, then drafts a performance review where every line links back to the exact ticket that backs it — bias-checked before you ever hit send.

What PerfCopilot reads from Jira
Read-only access to the Jira metadata that actually shows who owned what — no spreadsheets, no asking people to log their own wins:
- Ticket keys + summaries — the concrete work a person owned (e.g. "owned PROJ-219 end to end"), each citable by key
- Status transitions — the path from In Progress → In Review → Done, so the draft reflects delivery, not just assignment
- Issue type — story, bug, task, or spike: the kind of work, so a quarter of gnarly production bugs reads differently from a quarter of routine tickets
- Epic links — which larger initiative each ticket rolled up to, surfacing ownership of a whole epic rather than scattered tasks
- Assignee + timestamps — sustained delivery across the cycle versus an end-of-quarter scramble, and genuine cross-team scope when someone carried tickets across projects
Every one becomes a cited line in the draft — click any claim and land on the exact Jira ticket behind it. Want the full source list? See all integrations.
Honest boundary (stated up front, not buried): PerfCopilot reads Jira metadata — keys, status, type, epic, assignee, timestamps. It does not read the comment bodies inside your tickets. Everything in a Jira-sourced draft is descriptive and verifiable from the ticket record itself.

PerfCopilot turns a review cycle of Jira activity into a cited, bias-checked draft in under 5 minutes, with 100% of claims cited to the ticket/epic behind them — versus hours cross-referencing boards and epics by hand.
Why "cited to the ticket" matters
A Jira dashboard tells you a team closed 240 tickets. It can't tell you that this engineer owned the three-epic auth migration end to end, or that the person with the lowest ticket count carried every production incident. A cited review names the tickets — PROJ-219, the epic they drove, the spikes nobody else would take — linked inline, so when a rating is questioned in calibration or a promo packet, the evidence is one click away. Velocity tools count story points; PerfCopilot reads what the work was and writes it up, fairly.
One source is good. Jira + GitHub + Slack is defensible.
Jira shows what was owned and shipped. Pair it with GitHub for the code behind a ticket and Slack for the cross-team coordination, and a single line in the review can cite the ticket, the PR that closed it, and the thread where the person unblocked a partner team — bias-checked across all three. That combined picture is the wedge no single-source Jira tool can match.

FAQ
What Jira data does PerfCopilot read? Read-only metadata: ticket keys and summaries, status transitions, issue type, epic links, assignee, and timestamps. It does not read the comment bodies inside tickets, and it never writes to or changes anything in Jira.
Does it cite the actual tickets? Yes. Every claim in the draft links to the specific Jira ticket — by key — that supports it, so the review is defensible in calibration or a promo packet.
Does it just count tickets closed? No. Ticket-counting penalizes the people doing the hardest, lowest-volume work. PerfCopilot reads what the work was — the epic owned, the production bugs taken, the cross-project scope — and writes it up, bias-checked, instead of scoring raw throughput.
Do I have to move off Lattice or 15Five? No. PerfCopilot drafts from Jira and exports the review into the HR platform you already run. Nothing to migrate.
Can it combine Jira with GitHub or Slack? Yes — pair Jira with GitHub, Slack, Gmail, and 14 more so the review reflects the whole contribution: what was owned in Jira, the code that shipped it in GitHub, and the coordination in Slack.
