hay - Manage your developers’ wellbeing right in Slack

Hi Product Hunt! 🖖 Tomek here, Founder of ‘how are you’ (hay). I’m stoked to share with you hay and hear your thoughts about our brave little product. Burnout among software developers has become harder to spot, especially since many developers are now working remotely. I witnessed firsthand its effects at my own tech company with silent resignations caused by stress and overwork. I never really knew how to start the conversation to find out how I could help. So, I created hay for Slack, a simple and unintrusive way to check up on your developers’ happiness and job satisfaction. 👩🏼‍💻 WHO THIS IS FOR: Engineering managers and technical team leaders looking to gauge their developers’ happiness and job satisfaction with a survey — right in Slack! 💵 VALUE: * Run short wellbeing surveys in Slack. Only 5 seconds to fill out. No need to switch contexts. * Get automated alerts about your developers’ wellbeing. * Foster a culture of honesty, engagement, and open communication. * Detect burnout before it impacts productivity, or you lose your best coders. * Have meaningful conversations that help your developers stay balanced, focused, and happy. 🧲 USE CASES: * Check up on your developers’ wellbeing during busy and stressful times. * Find out how your developers are progressing on projects, in teams, and at the company. * Run limitless surveys on autopilot without monitoring and triaging data. * Save time by not having to manually gather and distribute feedback. * Developer-friendly. Perfect if you don’t want a complex, over-engineered HR tool. ❤️ PRODUCT HUNT DEAL: First 100 users get a free trial for 1 month + 50% off for 12 months with code "hayhunt" Feel free to join our growing Slack community. It’s a place for engineering leaders to share their thoughts and best practices about running 1:1 meetings and developing meaningful relations with their developers. Here’s an invitation: https://join.slack.com/t/hayapp/...

Exactly what engineering managers need! A great way to find out how dev teams are doing, feeling, and to combat burnout.

@korzonek looking good! I really like it's not too complex! Question: it looks like charts are dynamically generated within the Slack... How did you do that :o ?

This project sounds really interesting! I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but I'm particularly intrigued by the idea of running automated surveys with this project. Anything that can save time and simplify processes is a win in my book! Looking forward to checking it out more.

What a great idea!! We at OSO would love to try this out!

Congrats on launching #hay! I'm so excited to start exploring how this software can help create a thriving engineering team!

We use OfficeVibe and this kind of data is really helpful for us to make informed decisions about our team and culture. I'm a fan. But, it is true that participation scores need encouragement, so Hay bringing this concept to Slack is intriguing 👍

congrats, looks great and love the name

I think that the problem this solves is so important -- how to create a systematic checkin and give developers - who might be hesitant to call you up and say "hey, I need a break," an easy way to let you know how they're doing.

I love everything that Tomek and his team puts out -- well done guys!
