Modern workplaces are often characterized by overwhelming digital noise from emails, messages, and disconnected systems, leaving employees misaligned and unsure of their priorities. To address this fundamental challenge, Lattice, the leading HR platform, has announced the launch of Lattice Habits and the next evolution of its AI Agent, LatticeAI Agent Plus. This launch represents a strategic shift from simply managing HR data to architecting a system of behavior that helps organizations align through rhythm and intelligent insight, creating a more connected and purposeful work environment.
Lattice launches "Habits," a new team space for priorities, 1:1s, feedback, and live Q&A boards.
It also introduces LatticeAI Agent Plus, an advanced AI coach for managers.
The AI Agent joins 1:1s, takes notes, and provides contextual, personalized guidance.
New features include voice-powered practice for difficult conversations and proactive management insights.
The core Lattice AI Agent is now offered to customers at no additional cost.
The goal is to reduce workplace noise and misalignment by creating a systematic rhythm for work.
The core problem Lattice aims to solve is the fragmentation of workplace communication. Despite an abundance of technology, teams struggle with basic alignment, leading to miscommunication and a sense that work lacks meaning. Lattice Habits is designed as a centralized, "sacred" space for teams to connect on what matters most, transforming scattered interactions into a cohesive workflow that keeps everyone aligned on objectives, growth, and team cohesion.
"The most powerful system in the world is the system of people," says Sarah Franklin, CEO at Lattice. "But with all our technology, we still can't answer simple questions like 'what should I focus on today?' The result: miscommunication, misalignment, and meaningless work. The employee conversation is broken."
Building on its existing AI Agent, Lattice is introducing LatticeAI Agent Plus, which offers premium, proactive benefits focused on manager effectiveness. This intelligent coach is designed to be a active participant in management, joining one-on-one meetings to take notes and provide guidance tailored to the manager's style and the team's dynamics. It also offers voice-powered simulations to help managers practice for difficult conversations and delivers real-time insights by flagging when people or projects need attention.
This launch underscores Lattice's vision of a future where AI enhances human potential rather than replaces it. By combining the structured rhythm of Lattice Habits with the contextual support of LatticeAI Agent Plus, the platform aims to intentionally develop managers, remove friction from critical conversations, and provide the context needed for meaningful connections. This integrated approach positions HR to directly connect people success to tangible business outcomes.
"Work has been and always will be about people and how effectively we communicate," concludes Franklin. "People + AI is a new way to work, where we can all grow, lead, and succeed together. It isn't about replacing people; it's about helping people realize the potential of meaningful work. This is HR's moment to lead."
Lattice is the best all-in-one people platform, giving HR teams everything they need for HR, Talent, and AI — together in one place. The platform seamlessly integrates a modern HRIS with performance management, engagement insights, AI-driven analytics, payroll, and career development tools, giving HR teams everything they need to build high-performing teams and make data-driven decisions that drive business results.
Lattice removes tradeoffs between best-in-class people programs and operational efficiency. Because HR teams shouldn't have to choose between strategic impact and a system that just works.
