Monday.com Integration Now Available

Connect your Monday.com workspaces to Windmill in just a few clicks. Simply install the Windmill app from Monday.com, authorize the connection, and you’re ready to go. You can choose to install across all workspaces or select specific ones based on your needs.

​

Pin Employees for Quick Access

You can now pin employees beyond your direct reports for faster access to your most important 1:1s. Whether it’s your manager, cross-functional teammates, or frequent collaborators, simply pin them from the search bar or directly from their profile. Pinned employees appear in your left sidebar alongside your direct reports, making it easy to jump into the meetings that matter most.

​

Downloadable Cycle Overview for Easy Communication

Running a performance review cycle? You can now download a PDF overview of your entire cycle directly from the configuration page. This automated document includes all key dates, deadlines, questions, and links to our help center—perfect for sharing with your team via email, Slack, or internal communications. No more manual formatting or fielding questions about timelines. Just download and share.

​

Jan 23, 2026

​

Tables in 1:1 Notes

You can now add tables directly inside your one-on-one notes to organize action items, blockers, and more. You can also paste tables from Google Docs or Notion and they’ll carry over cleanly. Simple, flexible, and designed to make your notes easier to use and review.

​

Bulk 1:1 Setup

You can now update one-on-one prep settings for multiple direct reports at once. Select the people you want, change the prompt, and adjust timing (like when prep goes out and when you get notified), and it will apply to everyone in a single step. Less clicking, more consistency, and much easier to manage your team’s 1:1s.

​

Cycle Settings

Admins and HR admins can now see all performance review cycle settings in one place. In the Configuration tab, you can quickly audit questions, dates, deadlines, and overall flow without hunting through setup screens. Clearer visibility, easier checks, and more confidence before launching a cycle.

​

1:1 Notes in Google Calendar

Your Windmill 1:1 notes now appear directly inside your Google Calendar event. One click from the invite takes you straight into the agenda, so you can start every meeting with the right context. Admins can enable this by re-authenticating the Google Workspace integration.

​

Jan 16, 2026

​

Slack Shortcuts

We’ve added Slack shortcuts to easily capture context without leaving the conversation. Right from Slack, you can quickly send stuff into Windmill. To start, we have three shortcuts:

1. Create a private note
2. Add a 1:1 agenda item
3. Create a shoutout

​

Jan 9, 2026

​

Suggested Topic Citations in 1:1s

You can now see exactly where each Suggested Topic in your one-on-one comes from. Click into a topic and open Details to view the citation Windy used—making it easier to understand the context behind each suggestion and build more grounded, effective 1:1 conversations.

​

Jan 2, 2026

​

Introducing Company Knowledge

Admins can now add an organization description alongside company values in Settings. This gives Windy deeper context on what your company does, why it exists, and how it operates—so feedback prompts, conversations, and performance reviews are more accurately tailored to your organization.

​

Updated Pulse Response Sharing

Pulse response sharing settings now live after a Pulse runs instead of during setup. Creators can update visibility at any time—keeping results private to owners, visible to managers (by team), or shared with all participants—making the Pulse flow smoother and easier to manage.

​

Dec 26, 2025

​

More flexible review sharing and release flows

Windmill now supports both traditional and lightweight performance review release workflows. HR teams can configure who shares reviews (HR or managers), control which questions are visible to employees, lock and unlock reviews for edits, and release feedback with confidence. For lighter-weight cycles, managers can share reviews directly with employees while still respecting visibility rules — making reviews faster, clearer, and more flexible without sacrificing control. Learn more about Sharing Reviews

​

Take Command of Search

You can now use Command-K to do more than navigate—Universal Search supports common actions like creating private notes, starting a pulse, or toggling dark mode, all from one place. Commands are context-aware, so what you see depends on where you are in the app (for example, creating a private note directly from someone’s page). We’ll keep expanding this over time, while still supporting fast navigation across Windmill.

​

Dec 19, 2025

​

Bring your 1:1 notes into Windmill

You can now easily import existing one-on-one notes from tools like Google Docs directly into Windmill. Once imported, your notes become fast, searchable, and fully integrated into your workflow — showing up in performance reviews and accessible right from Slack via Windy. No more slow docs, scattered context, or lost action items — just a smarter, more powerful 1:1 experience in one place.

​

Private notes, just for you

You can now leave private notes about anyone on your team in Windmill — perfect for reminders, coaching thoughts, or development areas you don’t want in shared 1:1 notes. Private notes are visible only to you and automatically surface at the right moments, like before a 1:1 or during performance reviews, so nothing important gets lost or forgotten.

​

Smarter deal insights for sales teams

Windmill now does a better job understanding deal activity when you connect tools like Salesforce, HubSpot, or Attio. Deal value, stage changes, and progress are more accurately reflected across weekly recaps, performance summaries, and reporting — giving go-to-market teams clearer visibility into what’s really moving the pipeline.

​

Dec 12, 2025

​

Pulse, now for everyone

Pulse isn’t just for admins anymore. Any Windmill user can now send a Pulse to gather feedback, surface blockers, or check in with their team — all with the same powerful, streamlined experience. We’ve made some significant improvements to the flow, allowing you to create a Pulse in seconds and send it to the people you’re allowed to reach. Whether you’re an IC collecting feedback on a presentation, a teammate checking in on weekly blockers, or a team lead running lightweight retros, Pulse makes it easy to get the signal you need — right when it matters.

​

Dec 5, 2025

​

1:1 Stats

Windmill now includes 1:1 Stats, giving managers and admins a clear view of how consistently conversations are happening across the organization. You’ll find a new View Stats button at the top of the 1:1 screen highlighting key patterns, including:

• Manager 1:1 completion rates (leaderboards across the org)
• Total and average time spent in 1:1s
• Employees or pairs meeting less frequently than expected
• Note-taking activity inside Windmill

These insights help you quickly confirm whether 1:1s are happening at the right cadence, spot teams that may need support, and strengthen communication across the organization.

​

1:1 Suggested Topics

The day before each 1:1, Windy automatically surfaces a short list of topics tailored to you. These suggestions act as memory joggers—recent work, decisions, priorities, or follow-ups you may want to discuss. You can add any topic to your agenda with one click or dismiss items that aren’t relevant. Managers and direct reports each receive their own personalized suggestions. When either person adds a topic, Windmill labels it with their name so it’s clear who contributed what. Suggested topics are now available across all accounts, making 1:1s easier, more thoughtful, and more productive without any extra prep.

Big updates coming soon… We have been hard at work making some big improvements to the platform with a goal of everything being faster, easier to use and impactful for your organization. Stay tuned here for all of the latest, and if you need a refresher on what we’re up to check out the following resources:

• Windmill Website
• 1:1’s on Windmill
• How Windmill works?

​

Oct 31, 2025

Every single week we are improving the 1:1 flow to make Windmill the best possible place to store your 1:1 notes on the internet. If you haven’t tested the flow out yet, see how it all comes together here:

​

Oct 24, 2025

We’ve improved the notes section of the 1:1 experience to be faster, smoother and easier to use with your team. Each of your meeting instances will be available in the notes section, and you can always remove dates if the meetings don’t take place. We’ve also made some improvements to the “Catch me up” section to improve not only the load times, but also the quality of the information in there.

​

Oct 17, 2025

Do you keep you 1:1 notes in:

• Google Docs?
• Notes App?
• Record them?

If you’re doing any of the above - you have to try running your 1:1s on Windmill. You’re going to love it. Check out the latest here. Bring your meeting recordings directly into your 1:1s Do you record your 1:1s? If so - Windmill can now capture the recordings, and install the notes directly in your 1:1 for you. For more information on meeting recordings, you can check out an article here.

​

Sep 12, 2025

We’ve been blown away by the reaction thus far to One on Ones and are excited to make it a core building block within the product. As a refresher - Windy will build your one on one agenda for you. Agendas will include specific items that are top of mind and will include context about the work the team member has done since you last spoke. Stop showing up to your One on Ones unprepared - and start making better use of the time. Windy is here to help!

​

Sep 5, 2025

​

Announcing 1:1s

One of our favorite Routines yet! Regardless of your cadence, One on Ones are an important part of managing a team. The best One on Ones have a clear agenda, and a manager comes into the meeting with all of the context necessary to make good use of the time. Windy can help collect agendas, aggregate context and follow up on action items. In addition to One on One notes, this Routine will also give you the ability to leave notes through Windy. These notes can help add to One on One agendas or just overall reports about your direct reports. The One on One routine is available now - give it a try, we’re excited to hear your feedback!

​

Rippling

Having an up-to-date org chart is essential to getting the most out of Windmill. If your team uses Rippling as an HRIS, you can now connect Rippling to Windmill.

​

Download to PDF

One of our more popular requests - customers can now download reports as PDFs. Open the Report you want to download and select the option to “Download PDF”.

​

​

Improved Routine Overlaps

As Windmill continues to grow within organizations, we’ve seen instances where a single team member is enrolled in multiple Routines. This can create an uncomfortable experience for team members where they are being asked the same question multiple times in a week. Now, when setting up a Routine, Windmill can alert you to any team members who are already enrolled in that Routine. As part of this fix, you can now have multiple Feedback and Recap Routines running across an organization.

​

​

Emojis

Windy chats can become crowded in a hurry. We’ve added emojis to help you differentiate between different Windy messages. Check it out below!

​

Aug 8, 2025

​

Windmill Homepage

Our product has grown up significantly over the last two months. Windmill and Windy have become faster, easier to use and more powerful for our users. We’ve now updated our website to reflect these changes to showcase the power of Windmill. Check out the latest updates to gowindmill.com and let us know if you have any thoughts or feedback!

​

Nudges!

As the creator of a Routine, you will always have the lingering non-responders. People who “missed the message on Slack”, “missed the deadline” or “opened the message and then forgot to reply”. No matter what their excuse is, we built this function for them. Now available in Windmill is a Nudge function, which will let you send your own reminders to non-responders. Click into your Routine, and send nudges to anyone who has missed, ignored or forgot about your prompt.

​

Aug 1, 2025

​

Goals!

One of our most powerful Routines is now live. Are you managing goals in a clunky spreadsheet or project tracker? Are you constantly bugging your team to add their updates? Windmill’s Goals Routine is the best way to keep track of your team’s progress. Upload your team’s goals to Windmill and Windy will check in with the team every week for their updates. As a team member, you no longer need to log your updates manually in a tracker. As a manager, Windy will organize all of the updates into an easy to read report that will be sent to you on whatever cadence you prefer.

​

Routine Requester

When setting up a Routine, you may want include the requesters name or in some cases, include someone else’s name. I’ll give you an example: If I am collecting Goals from my team, I may want Windy to say “Mark wants to know how you’re tracking on your goal?” If I am helping organize the team’s All Hands meeting, I might want to use the CEO’s name in the prompt so team member’s know Max wants agenda items. As an Admin within Windmill you now have the ability to:

• Include no name
• Include your own name (or someone who’s account you have delegated access to)
• Include the recipients Manager as the requester

All of these settings are configured within the Routine page (after the Routine is created).

​

Improved Report Sharing

If you want to share reports with team members, we’ve improved that flow. Within the Report, just select “Share” on the top right and choose the setting that allows anyone with the link to access the report or to share it with people one by one.

​

Jul 25, 2025

​

Report Sharing

Windmill Reports offer you valuable insight directly to Email and Slack. However, they were previously only useful to one person. Now Reports can be easily shared across the org. Just go into the Report and you can share directly with others.

​

Windy Reminders

Windy now supports natural language reminders, letting users ask things like “remind me in five minutes” across any chat type—tasks, goals, updates, and more. This quick, flexible feature helps users stay on track without needing separate tools or calendar hacks. Just chat with Windy in your Slack DM and tell Windy what to do.

​

Better Group Admin

A dramatically improved Groups editing flow! Windmill is the home for both your vertical org chart (who reports to who) and your horizontal org chart (who is actually collaborating on projects etc.). The new Groups UX introduces a cleaner interface with improved functionality, including the ability to create and rename groups and add or remove members directly from the page. If you want to get set up with Windmill quickly, you can easily build a group and set up a Routine without the hassle of building the full org chart. If you’re an Admin, navigate to Settings > Groups to check it out.

​

​

Accomplishments to Recaps

Overview We’re updating the name of the Windy routine from “Accomplishments” to “Recaps.” This change aims to better reflect what the feature is truly designed to do: provide a lightweight summary of what each team member has been focused on during the week. Why the Change? The term “accomplishment” caused confusion. Many users interpreted it as referring only to completed, significant work. That led to underreporting of important in-progress efforts or smaller—but still valuable—tasks. We chose the name “Recap” because it more accurately captures the feature’s purpose: summarizing where time was spent, regardless of whether the work is finished. What’s Different? There’s no real change in functionality. Here’s what’s been updated:

• UI Update: We’ve replaced checkmarks with bullet points to remove the impression that everything listed is complete.
• Prompt Tweak: The AI prompt is now worded to encourage a more comprehensive summary, not just final deliverables.
• Name: Everywhere you previously saw “Accomplishments,” you’ll now see “Recap.”

​

Second Owner on Routines

Yes, once the routine is created, you can click into the routine and you’ll see a section called “owners”. Through the edit pencil, you can add owners to the routine, this will give them access to not only the individual responses, but also the final report.

​

Attio Integration

If your team uses Attio as it’s CRM, you are in luck! Windmill now supports Attio as an integration, letting you pull in essential deal data from your CRM to help power Windy.

​

Jul 11, 2025

​

Windmill Help Desk

Welcome to the new Windmill help desk. We’ve completely overhauled our help desk with new Looms, articles and walkthroughs of how to get the most use from the Windmill product. Enjoy it, and please don’t hesitate to reach out with questions or thoughts on new content we can add.

​

Multiple Routine Owners

Windmill now lets you assign multiple owners to any routine (e.g., Priorities, Continuous Feedback). Once a Routine is created, you can click into a Routine and within the “Owners” section, add as many owners as you’d like. All owners will automatically receive routine responses and reports, and gain full edit permissions. This makes shared accountability easy—and Reports and Routines can easily be shared across teams.

​

Mass Shoutouts

You can now give a shoutout to multiple people in the same shoutout! Simply ask Windy something like, “Can I give a shoutout to Alice, Bob and Carol for doing such a great job presenting at the All-Hands?”, and your shoutout will be sent to your company’s channel as one slack message, @ mentioning them all.

​

Jul 4, 2025

​

Routine Alerting

A big pain point we heard with routine creators over the last two weeks, is that creators want better alerting as a routine is running. We have now implemented the following to help fix that for creators: Better alerting for routine creators - creators will now be pinged:

• When the routine goes live
• First reply
• First day update
• Daily report on responses until the routine deadline

Better Report delivery after a routine has been completed When a routine is completed and a report is generated, Windy will send you a link to the final report in Slack.

​

Jun 27, 2025

We’ve been overwhelmed by the response to Routines thus far, and we’ve been blown away by the types of things customers have started to use Windy for. Whether it be:

• Feedback on All Hands
• Monthly alignment check ins
• The collection of meeting agendas
• Feedback on candidates

The use cases are extremely exciting to see, and the list is only growing! We’re rapidly improving the experience as well, here are some of the big items from last week:

​

Routine Deadlines

Different routines require information delivered at different times. We have now added the concept of a deadline which will let the creator specify when they need the responses. This is essential for items like Priorities, stand up notes or meetings agendas. If you create a routine asking the team about agenda items for a meeting in two hours, you can now set that routine to end right before that meeting. Depending on the deadline you set, Windy will follow up before the routines closes to nudge non-responders.

​

Editable Discussion Guides

Windy makes it really easy to ask questions to large groups of people, and Windy also helps contextualize and understand those response by auto-generating reports for you. However, not all questions can be simplified into a single ask. What if you have follow up questions? Now, in routine creation, Windy will give you the ability to edit your discussion guide. This will let creators add any follow up questions they’d like Windy to ask. Here is an example - by hitting Edit on the discussion guide, I am able to add follow up questions about our in office experience.

​

Threaded Messages Only

Replying to Windy can only be done in threads. Previously Windy would try to continue the conversation with you if the response was in a separate thread. However, this experience presented other challenges, so now Windy will only let you reply in the proper thread. If you attempt to reply out of a thread, Windy will quickly nudge you back in the right direction.

​

Jun 6, 2025

​

The best organizations have routines.

We are going to begin rolling out an updated version of Windmill to select customers next week (and will continue a phased roll out over the next few weeks). This update gives users the ability to control Windy on their own. Previously, Windy could assist with accomplishments and feedback, but in speaking with users, there are hundreds of other routines that Windy can assist with:

• Daily Stand-ups - AI-generated daily check-ins with integration data to replace or shorten stand-up meetings
• Weekly Priorities - Automated priority collection and alignment reporting to ensure teams stay focused
• Weekly Blockers - Proactive blocker identification and escalation to remove friction before it compounds
• Pulse Surveys - Custom employee surveys with natural language responses and comprehensive insights
• Performance Reviews - Lightweight monthly self-reflection and manager feedback cycles instead of heavy annual reviews
• Goals & OKRs - Automated goal progress tracking with risk identification and mid-cycle review reports
• One-on-One Agendas - AI-prepared meeting agendas based on recent activity, past meetings, and role context
• Meeting Agendas - Automated agenda item collection from attendees before group meetings
• Meeting Feedback - Monthly audits of expensive recurring meetings with improvement recommendations
• Sprint Retrospectives - Pre-meeting reflection collection to make retros more focused and efficient
• Interview Feedback - Structured post-interview feedback collection with consistent evaluation rubrics
• Employee Onboarding - Daily then weekly check-ins for new hires to catch confusion early and improve ramp-up
• And countless more…

Not only will Windy help collect the information, but Windy will also organize a report to share the learnings and trends from the team. Think about the routines you’re currently running with your team, Windy is excited to help.

​

May 30, 2025

A management system built specifically for you is coming soon. We are putting the finishing touches on this next iteration of both Windmill (and Windy).

​

Bug Fixes & Improvements

• Improvements to accomplishments
• Resolved a bug which pulled in older Asana tasks into accomplishments
• Improvements to deep dives, accessing older meetings
• Bug fixes for company values in shoutouts

​

May 9, 2025

​

Shoutouts can now incorporate company values

Last week we rolled out Shoutouts. This week we enhanced that experience even more by adding your company values. Not only can you collect shoutouts from you team, you can also prompt your team for value based feedback, and continue to encourage your company goals and values.

​

Significant improvements to Windy

Windy is getting smarter and faster every week. If you haven’t chatted with Windy in a bit you’ll start to notice that Windy is smarter, easier to talk to and more knowledgable about your organization. As a reminder, you’re always welcome to ask Windy to:

• Collect feedback on a team members
• Proactively give feedback about someone
• Generate your weekly accomplishments
• Edit your weekly accomplishments
• Tell you your schedule for the week
• Share feedback you’ve received
• Give you a summary of your overall performance

As a manager, Windy is always there to answer any questions about your team. Don’t be afraid to bother Windy any time you need something.

​

May 2, 2025

​

Shoutouts!

Windy already collects feedback from your team, but some feedback is worthy of sharing with the whole team or organization. Now, through shoutouts, Windy can prompt you to share pieces of positive feedback in a dedicated shoutouts channel (of your choosing). Say goodbye to your clunky kudos form or empty kudos channel. Let Windy gather the content for you, and keep the team motivated and recognized.

​

Apr 25, 2025

​

Improvements to the stats detail page

As a manager, when reviewing stats it’s easy to get lost in all of the information. We know it can sometimes be overwhelming - particularly when you see everything in a single place. We’ve made some tweaks to the UI so you can now better navigate and better understand the stats. In the stats detail page, you will now see a tab for each of the following:

• The activities associated with the stat (Pull Requests in the below screenshot)
• The trend line for the individual over the period of time you select
• How the individual compares to the rest of the team in a given category

Hopefully this makes stats easier to browse and understand.

​

More time options for accomplishment review

Everyone preps for the upcoming week at different times. As a manager, you now have more options for when to review your team’s accomplishments. Go into Settings > Accomplishments > and you can edit the delivery time to almost any time you’d like.

​

Apr 18, 2025

​

Gong Integration now syncs comments and contributes to stats

Last week we launched our Gong integration, focused on providing valuable insight from your sales team. This week we added two significant upgrades to the integration allowing for users to both generate Gong stats and access video comments. If your sales team uses Gong, you can now supercharge it’s capabilities by connecting it to Windy.

​

Citations are available for accomplishments and stats

One of the key benefits to using Windmill as a manager, is being able to quickly go from a high level view of everything into the weeds. We have now taken that a step further. Within the Windmill platform now, we have made every citation clickable so you can link out directly from Windmill to the underlying platform.

• Need more context on a ticket? Click through to Linear.
• Need more context on a PR? Click through to Github.
• Want to find the Slack thread associated with an accomplishment? Click through directly to that part of the conversation.

​

Bug Fixes & Improvements

• Accomplishments better incorporates Slack messages
• Improved recall for accomplishment citations
• Overall Improved accomplishments quality
• Improvements to feedback prompt quality
• Improvements to the Notion integration to avoid issues around rate limits
• Fixed a bug that interfered with Figma document syncs
• Fixed a bug that caused employee merges to error
• Improvements to the handling of Github stats
• Enhanced the flow when trying to proactively give feedback to multiple people within an org
• Deep Dive improvements
  • Better handling of Time Zones
  • Better handling of requests from integrations where Windmill lacks a connection

​

Apr 11, 2025

​

New Integration: Gong

One of more popular requests for a few weeks now has been Gong. If your sales team uses Gong, Windy can now pull recordings and transcripts and apply them to feedback and accomplishments.

​

Improvements to Deep Dives

We are continuing to make Deep Dives better. Whether you are using Deep Dives via the Windmill platform or via Slack, our goal is to deliver you actionable insights that would have required a lot of time or effort to compile without Windy’s help. Let us know what you think!

​

Enhancements to requesting and giving proactive feedback

Giving and requesting feedback through Windy is getting better every single week. If you haven’t yet, try two things this week:

1. Hey Windy, can I request some feedback from _******__ (enter co-worker) about __******_ (enter something you worked on)?
2. Hey Windy, I’d love to give some feedback to _**_**_ (enter co-worker) about _**__**_ (enter the thing you want to provide feedback on)

​

Apr 4, 2025

​

Request to give and receive feedback

This has been a popular request from users for a while now. Windy can always collect feedback from your team, but sometimes you have feedback you want to request on your own. Windy can now request feedback from others and give feedback based on user requests. Just let Windy know who you want to give feedback to or collect it from and Windy can do the rest.

​

Deep Dives

As a reminder, we launched Deep Dives last week, and we’ve been blown away by the power of the feature. If you haven’t tried a deep dive yet, reach out to Windy in Slack today and have Windy do the work for you.

​

Windy Stats

Now that your team is engaging with Windy, it’s useful to keep tabs on Windy stats. The following stats are now available in your stats table:

• Windy Chats - The total number of chats initiated by anyone
• Windy Initiated Chats - The total number of chats initiated by Windy (first message is from Windy)
• User Initiated Chats - The total number of chats initiated by the user (first message is from the user)
• Windy Response Rate - The % of chats that a user responds to that are initiated by Windy

A full list of our stats are always available here.

​

Mar 28, 2025

​

Deep Dives

Today we’re launching Deep Dives, a brand-new way to interact with Windy. Until now, Windy has focused primarily on gathering information from you. With Deep Dives, you can now ask Windy your own questions. Windy will generate detailed research reports that combine feedback, accomplishments, and underlying data gathered through your connected integrations. To start using Deep Dives, just ping Windy in Slack with your question. Here are a few ideas to inspire you:

• Austin just started. How’s he doing and what has he been up to?
• How much time have we been spending in meetings recently?
• I have a 1:1 with Jack soon—what should we talk about?
• What are the common issues in my team’s PRs?
• Who’s the best at demoing our product?

​

Mar 21, 2025

​

Improvements to new user onboarding

After accepting an invite to Windmill, an admin is now greeted with this set up screen to help expedite the account set up stage. From here, an admin has easy access to connections and an easy way to invite other team members who may be needed to get systems connected.

​

Improvements

• Improvements to the Jira integration - should lead to better Jira based accomplishments
• Fix to improve Figma syncing
• Improvements to Notion integration

​

Figma Stats

If you’ve connected Figma to Windy - you can now see Figma stats in your stats views. As always, a full list of our available stats can be found here.

​

Table exporting from Windmill stats

Speaking of stats, you can now export stats to a CSV! This has been a popular request, and now you can create any stats views you’d like and export to CSV.

​

Mar 7, 2025

​

Figma is Live!

If your team uses Figma for design, you can now connect Figma to Windy. Connecting Figma is straight forward, all you need is:

• An account Admin
• Access to your Figma team ID

Once Figma is connected, Windy will be able to include Figma activities in accomplishments, feedback requests and in stats. One of the best parts of connecting Figma, is that Windy can sync in all previous data, providing a ton of additional context for all of Windy’s functionality. Figma has been one of our most popular integrations, so we’re excited for everyone to use it. If your team has another request for an integration, please let Windy know or reach out to us directly support@gowindmill.com

​

Improvements

• Fixed a bug that was affecting Jira data syncing to accomplishments
• Improved Windy’s vocabulary - including better greetings
• Bug fix for Airtable documents sync

Privacy Improvements to all views

At Windmill, privacy is always at the core of everything we do. In order to ensure Windmill users know what they do/don’t have access to, we improved all of our UI to make it clear when a user does not have permission to view an object. As you navigate through Windmill, you may encounter these warnings, which indicate that you do not have access to an entity in Windmill (or its original host system).

Customize Your Weekly Accomplishments Preferences

Windmill now allows you to customize how your weekly accomplishments are generated through accomplishment preferences. These preferences help guide Windmill in creating more relevant and focused accomplishment summaries that align with your professional goals. You can see your current preferences and when they were last updated directly in the preferences panel. The system will show you the last update date so you can track when you made changes.

Additional context for feedback in Windmill

Windy has been collecting feedback from your organization and we’ve been organizing it for you on your team’s profiles. As the volume of feedback has increased, we wanted to provide additional context for users. In addition to seeing the feedback itself, we have now added the ability to see the original prompt. When on a team member’s profile, you can click into a piece of feedback and we’ll show you not only the feedback, but also the prompt.

​

Stats are now available for Github Issues

If your team uses Github Issues for project management, you can now track stats in Windmill. We’ve added the following to the stats page:

• GitHub Issues completed
• GitHub Issues created
• GitHub Issues moments

If you want to see a full list of available Windmill stats, you can see the full list here.

Request Feedback from Teammates

Windy will ping the right people at the right time to collect feedback. However, if you’re ever looking for feedback from others, you can now request it directly in Windmill. Navigate to an employee’s profile, and select “Request Feedback”. Give Windy a little context around what specifically you want feedback on, and Windy will take care of the rest.

​

Accomplishment Attribution

Accomplishments in Windmill are auto-generated by Windy, but are often edited by team members. As you review weekly accomplishment, we’ve added some context to help you better understand if they have been edited or tweaked by team members before being saved.

New Features

​

Feedback summaries

Your team has leaned into Windmill Feedback, and now team members have valuable pieces of constructive feedback in Windmill. Rather than log into the platform to see feedback as it comes in, Windmill can now summarize key insights and share them with team members proactively. This feature is still in development, and we are seeking feedback from both managers and IC’s. Once you receive your feedback recaps, you can ask Windy for more context and suggestions for how to improve going forward.

​

Manager Feedback settings

As a manager not all feedback on your team is created equal. Positive feedback is easy to share, but more constructive feedback you may want to save for an in person meeting. Now within Windmill, managers can control how their team’s feedback is delivered. If you are comfortable with all feedback going directly to the team, you have that option. If you want to review every piece of feedback, you have that option as well. In order to access these settings, go into Settings > Feedback.

​
