White-label recognition on Slack
Say thanks in a way that works for your team
What's the value prop?
ThanksChat is a white label Slack app that lets you enhance your company culture by promoting collaboration and saying thank you within your team.
Each team member gets a limited number of tokens per day to publicly award to other team members who have helped them out in some way. ThanksChat is a bot that lives in your Slack environment and keeps track of how many tokens have been given, to whom, and for what reasons. A leaderboard is maintained to foster healthy, friendly competition as to who can be the most helpful in the team.
Testing has shown that this simple mechanic encourages people to go out their way to help others and results in a happier, more collaborative workforce.
Why we're better
Other services that use this mechanic exist, but ThanksChat is unique in that it lets you control the look and feel of the experience.
Other services insist you use their branding and use a token of their choosing. At ThanksChat we let you tailor the experience to fit your company culture and values.
- You pick the emoji to say thanks with that works for you
- Should the messages be special or given freely? You pick a number-per-day to give out that fits your ethos
- Pick a bot username that reflects your intent
- You pick a logo that represents your company
- Each team is different. Configure the wording of the messages to make your team feel special
Build your Slack culture around your company and values, not someone elses.
How it works
When someone goes above and beyond to help out a colleague, it's good to acknowledge that. You pick an emoji to represent something positive in your company, and set that as the "token".
People in your team can use that token to publicly say thanks to each other. People have a limited number of these tokens they can give out per day, so when someone gives a token, it really means something.
ThanksChat keeps a leaderboard of the number of tokens received by each team member. This leaderboard is a public way of acknowledging those who are most helpful in the team.
Leaderboards are Monthly by default so new-hires have a chance to catch up, but you can always access the all-time leaderboard for that ultimate prestige.
