Request feedback

Requesting feedback with ClarityLoop is quick and straightforward. Whether you're seeking input for yourself, asking on behalf of a direct report, or gathering insights from multiple people, the system captures context and helps craft clear, actionable requests in just a few steps.

How to request feedback​

  1. Find the moment.

    • In Slack, Jira, GitHub, or Confluence, click "Request Feedback" or "Add to ClarityLoop".
    • In the ClarityLoop web app, select an item from your work feed or use the "Request Feedback" button.
    • Or, click "Request Feedback" manually from the sidebar to describe what you'd like feedback on.

  2. Describe your intent.

    • Enter a short summary and a few sentences explaining what you'd like feedback on.
    • The AI assistant will refine your request to make it clear, specific, and easy for others to respond.

  3. Add context if useful.

    • Context helps others give more relevant feedback.
    • ClarityLoop automatically captures context from integrated tools. You can also add links or upload screenshots.

  4. Choose who to ask.

    • Select one or more people to request feedback from.
    • Managers can request feedback about their direct reports.

  5. Send the request.

    • The selected recipients will receive an email notification and an in-app alert prompting them to respond.

AI-powered feedback requests​

ClarityLoop uses AI to make feedback requests more effective:

  • Clarifies your request: Helps you ask clear, specific questions.
  • Improves the wording: Adjusts tone and phrasing for clarity and professionalism.
  • Structures the request: Ensures the request is easy to understand and respond to.

Where you can request feedback​

  • Slack: Right-click a message to request feedback.
  • GitHub, Jira, Confluence: Use the "Add to ClarityLoop" link.
  • Web app: Use the work feed or the sidebar's "Request Feedback" option.
  • Screenshots: Upload screenshots; ClarityLoop analyzes the content to provide context.

Sharing options​

When requesting feedback, you can:

  • Request feedback for yourself.
  • Request feedback for someone else (for managers).
  • Request feedback from multiple people at once.

Note: When managers request feedback about their direct reports, responses are shared with the manager only.

Nudging recipients​

If recipients haven't responded after a while, you can send a gentle nudge to remind them.

  • Go to Requests Sent, find the relevant request, and click "Nudge".
  • The system will send a follow-up email notification and an in-app reminder.

Best practices​

  • Be specific: Provide clear guidance about what kind of feedback you need.
  • Request feedback early: Don’t wait until the end of a project—ask when the work is fresh.
  • Add context when possible: Relevant context helps recipients respond more effectively.
  • Ask a variety of colleagues: Feedback from peers, managers, and cross-functional collaborators offers diverse perspectives.

Example request:
"I'd appreciate feedback on how I handled communication during the project kickoff. Any insights on strengths or areas for improvement would be helpful."
