Homebase vs Lattice

Autessa Homebase vs Lattice: the HRIS alternative

Lattice is a leader in performance, goals and engagement, and it connects to the HRIS you already run. Homebase is the HRIS and the performance suite in one app, so reviews, goals and promotions sit on the same record as time off, onboarding and training.

Where Homebase wins

Why teams choose Homebase over Lattice

No second system to sync

Records, PTO and onboarding live in the same app as reviews and goals, so a job change on the record shows everywhere it matters.

Compliance beside performance

Policy acknowledgment, an LMS with your own courses and Vanta sync sit next to reviews, on the same people.

Agents past the review cycle

Lattice’s MCP helps people draft reviews and prepare 1:1s. The Autessa MCP covers those jobs, plus time off, onboarding, training and policies.

Reshape the review itself

Tailor questions and approval chains in settings, then ask Autobot for anything further, such as a new calibration view, and it changes the app, code and all.
