Stars Economy
Great work noticed the moment it happens.
Anyone on the team can send 1-50 stars with a recognition post. Tag with up to 3 company values to reinforce the behaviours that matter. A visible feed keeps the culture alive between review cycles — with reactions, comments, and a monthly star budget that auto-resets. Stars tie into the gamification engine where they unlock badges and real rewards.
- Monthly star budget (50 stars, admin-configurable, auto-resets)
- Reactions (clap, fire, tada, heart, rocket) and threaded comments
- Private recognition option for sensitive or personal praise
