How it works

Inviting reviewers for a review cycle

Add people, pick a questionnaire

Add the person being reviewed, choose one of four questionnaires or your own, and list who should give feedback.

A reviewer answering questions on a phone

Reviewers answer through a link

Each reviewer gets a private link by email. No account, no app, works on a phone. Reminders go out automatically.

Read the report

Scores per category, self versus others, and a skill and initiative level with concrete next steps. Share it with the person or keep it for the conversation.

Reports

Reports people actually read

One page per person, with the numbers that matter and the gaps that start a useful conversation.

  • Scores per competency, from every reviewer group
  • Self-assessment next to what others said, with the biggest gaps called out
  • A skill level on the Dreyfus model and an initiative level on the five levels of agency
  • Strengths, development areas and written comments

Questionnaires

A questionnaire for every role

Four research-backed questionnaires come with Blik. Use them as they are, edit them, or write your own.

  • Professional Skills 360, for any role
  • Software Engineering 360, for engineers
  • Manager 360, for people leads
  • 360 Degree Feedback, twelve questions for a quick round

Likert scales, multiple choice and free text. Your own questionnaires stay private to your organisation.

The framework

A shared language for skill

Every report places the person on the five stages of the Dreyfus model of skill acquisition, from Novice to Expert, and on the five levels of agency. Growth becomes a concrete next stage instead of a vague rating.

  • Skill level, derived from the competency scores
  • Initiative level, derived from the agency questions
  • One performance matrix quadrant that combines the two
  • Concrete next steps for the stage the person is at

Your data

Hosted in the EU

The hosted service runs at Hetzner in Germany with daily backups. Self-host and the data never leaves your servers.

Tools for GDPR obligations

Export your whole organisation as JSON, delete people and their data, and data is removed 30 days after a cancelled subscription. Your organisation remains responsible for lawful processing, access and retention.

How anonymity works

Reviewers answer through token links, never accounts, and reports aggregate by category with a minimum response threshold. A database administrator could in principle link a token to an invitation; nothing in the interface does.

Plug it in

Self-host in minutes

One Docker Compose file with PostgreSQL and a setup wizard. Runs on a small VPS.

docker compose up

REST API and webhooks

Bearer-token API for people, cycles and reports, plus HMAC-signed webhooks for cycle events. API docs.

Your data, in plain JSON

Full export of every account and organisation. Move to another tool without asking us. For developers.

Questions

Can I pay for one review round without a subscription?

Yes. The Single Round is €19 once and covers a hosted feedback round for up to 10 employees, with no subscription and no charge for reviewers. See what's included.

How does Blik ensure reviewer anonymity?

Reviewers use token-based links, and reports aggregate feedback by category with configurable thresholds. Responses retain a token reference, which may link to an invitation email. Confidentiality depends on invitation method, permissions, thresholds, and feedback content; it is not guaranteed against administrators with database access.

Is Blik GDPR compliant?

EU hosting and self-hosting do not automatically establish GDPR compliance. Blik provides export and deletion tools to support your obligations. Your organization remains responsible for lawful processing, configuration, access controls, retention, and compliance processes.

Can I customize the questionnaires?

Yes! The application comes with 4 default questionnaires for different roles and needs, and you can create your own with no restrictions. We have multiple types of answer modes like Likert scales, multiple choice, and free text. The questionnaires can contain multiple segments which work well on mobile devices too.

Can I export my data?

Yes. You get a full account and organization JSON export. This makes it easy to back up your data or migrate to another system if you need to.

How is Blik different from Lattice, Culture Amp, and 15Five?

Blik is AGPL-3.0 software you can self-host free, with a one-time hosted review round for €19 or managed EU hosting subscriptions from €49/month for up to 50 employees. Lattice, Culture Amp, and 15Five offer broader hosted performance-management suites with different modules and pricing. Compare features, deployment, and dated vendor prices.

Sources & pricing assumptions

Pricing verified October 2026 for published vendor rates. Culture Amp requires a quote. Prices may change; confirm your package with the vendor.

  1. Lattice pricing: Performance $10, Goals & OKRs $8, Engagement $4, Grow $4, and Compensation $6 per seat/month. Performance alone to all five modules totals $10–32 per seat/month, or $6,000–19,200/year for 50 seats. All contracts are billed annually, with a $4,000 annual minimum. The upper figure is the sum of listed modules, not a quoted bundle.
  2. 15Five pricing: Engage $4, Perform $11, and Total Platform $16 per user/month, billed annually. At 50 seats that is $2,400, $6,600, or $9,600/year respectively. Perform and Total Platform include 360° feedback; Engage is an engagement-survey plan.
  3. Culture Amp plans: no public prices; annual billing and a sales quote are required. User-reported G2 figures of $9–14/user/month and $4,500+ annual minimums are not published vendor prices and were not independently reverified.
  4. Blik source and deployment guide: AGPL-3.0; self-host free on a small EU VPS (≈€10-50/month). Get it running in under 30 minutes with Docker Compose, allowing additional time for configuration and backups.

Blik prices are in EUR; vendor prices above are in USD. These comparisons do not subtract across currencies. Plan scope, minimums, taxes, and optional services affect the final quote.
