Platform · 1:1s

One-on-ones that actually move things forward.

A shared agenda, tracked action items, and every past conversation in one place — so managers and their reports walk in prepared and walk out with next steps that stick.

The challenge

When 1:1s live in scattered docs and calendar invites, the same topics resurface, commitments get forgotten, and the meeting becomes a status update instead of a conversation. Teksquilt gives every recurring 1:1 a single, shared home — so nothing important slips between check-ins.

What it does

Inside 1:1s.

Shared agenda

Manager and report build the agenda together. Either side adds talking points ahead of time — and AI suggests a few from recent goals and feedback — so the meeting starts with what matters most, not a blank page.

Action items that carry over

Assign next steps to either person, with owners and due dates. Open items roll into the next 1:1 automatically, so commitments get closed, not lost.

Shared and private notes

Capture decisions in shared notes both people can see, and keep your own thoughts in private notes only you can read — all in the same workspace.

Full meeting history

Every past agenda, note, and decision stays on a running timeline. Pick up exactly where you left off and track how a topic or goal evolved over months.

Reusable templates

Start from structured templates for weekly check-ins, skip-levels, development chats, and new-hire onboarding — so good conversations happen by default, not by luck.

Connected to the bigger picture

Pull goals, feedback, and review topics straight into the agenda, and sync recurring 1:1s with your calendar and Slack or Teams so prep happens where work already lives.

Outcomes

What changes when it's in place.

Consistent

Cadence that holds

Set a recurring rhythm — weekly, biweekly, or monthly — with reminders before each meeting, so 1:1s stop getting skipped and reschedules don't break the habit.

Accountable

Follow-through you can see

Owners, due dates, and carried-over items mean fewer dropped commitments and a clear record of what was agreed and what got done.

Connected

Stronger relationships

Regular, structured conversations build trust, surface blockers earlier, and keep development front and center — even across remote and distributed teams.

FAQ

1:1s questions

How is this different from running 1:1s in a shared doc?

A doc captures notes, but it can't assign action items with owners and due dates, carry open topics into the next meeting, link to goals and feedback, or give HR visibility into whether 1:1s are actually happening. Teksquilt does all of that in one structured, searchable place.

Can both the manager and the report contribute to the agenda?

Yes. The agenda is shared — either person can add talking points before or during the meeting. Shared notes are visible to both, while private notes stay visible only to their author.

Does it work with our calendar and chat tools?

Recurring 1:1s sync with your calendar, and you can connect Slack or Microsoft Teams to add talking points and get prep reminders without leaving the tools your team already uses.
