As a remote software engineer, I often felt disconnected and unrecognized. After talking with colleagues who felt the same, I built a tool to change that. It uses gamification—team members can give recognition, earn points, and collect badges. Leaders can send surveys for feedback, and everyone gets Slack notifications for recognition and surveys.
Similar to how language learning apps like Duolingo and Memrise make studying fun by tapping into the brain's reward system, this tool brings that same concept to the workplace. Instead of the old, boring ways of recognizing co-workers, we added a game-like experience, focusing on making recognition more engaging and rewarding.
I hope this helps others feel more connected and appreciated. I'd love to hear your feedback!
