Hey there 👋 I'm Ruan, founder of KaBoon.
For years, I watched recognition software collect dust in unused tabs while teams were starving for genuine "hey, nice work" from each other. The culprit: most tools feel corporate, disconnected from where work actually happens (Slack), and limit you to boring templates.
So we built KaBoon on one principle: recognition shouldn't feel like an obligation, it should feel like celebration.
Here's what we learned: when recognition is wrapped in a world your team loves, people actually participate. At a 150-person company, 90% of employees engaged with peer recognition over 6 months when it lived in Slack and felt like a game, not a chore.
How it works:
- Recognize teammates in Slack
- Recognition rolls up to team scores on live leaderboards
- Divide your org into teams and let them compete (wizarding houses, pirate crews, galactic legions, you pick the theme)
- Seasons reset so that every team and person gets a fresh shot
- Tie recognition to your actual values, not templates
The result: culture that sticks because people want to celebrate, not because they have to. I'll be around to chat about what we're building, why existing tools missed the mark, or hear your weirdest workplace recognition stories.
Let's make recognition fun, easy, exciting, and rewarding. 🎉
