What is the short answer on Lattice vs Culture Amp?

Updated October 18, 2026. Vendor figures come from lattice.com/pricing and cultureamp.com/pricing, read on that date. Where another site disagrees with a vendor, the vendor's own page is used.

Lattice Culture Amp Harmny
Starts with Performance: reviews, goals, 1:1s Engagement science: surveys, benchmarks, People Science Growth: career paths, reviews, goals and an HR suite
Published price From $4/seat/mo (Engagement) to $13/seat/mo (Foundations bundle), plus add-ons Custom quote only $0 for up to 10 users; then $8 (Starter) or $16 (Growth) per user per month
Minimum spend $4,000 per year Not published 3 seats on Starter, 5 on Growth; none on Free
Billing Annual Annual Monthly or annual
Strongest at Performance cycles, calibration, goals, compensation add-on Engagement surveys, benchmarking, People Science services Employee-visible career pathing, low cost, all-in-one HR
Honest weak spot Engagement and compensation are priced as extra modules No public price; the pricing page lists no compensation module Smaller engagement benchmark dataset and fewer deep HRIS integrations

Does it start with performance or with engagement science?

The two products read differently in their own marketing. Lattice's pricing page leads with performance: reviews, calibration, goals and OKRs, 1:1s and feedback, with Engagement as a separate module. Culture Amp's pricing page leads with two products, Engage and Perform, and describes its approach as grounded in People Science and a large employee dataset. Both now sell both halves, so the starting point shows up mostly in what you buy first and what the sales process looks like.

Harmny starts from growth: competency frameworks and career paths employees can see, with reviews, goals and engagement surveys alongside, and time off, attendance and recruiting in the same app.

Which is best for my company size?

Our judgment from the published tiers and prices above, as of October 2026, not a vendor claim.
