We Just Launched KaBoon on Product Hunt — Here's What's Inside

We're thrilled to announce that KaBoon is now live on Product Hunt! 🎉

After months of building and refining, we're finally sharing our solution for a problem we know teams across the world are facing: employee recognition feels broken. It's either non-existent, corporate, or both. We knew there had to be a better way.

The Problem We're Solving

Traditional employee recognition is boring. It happens quarterly at best, feels mandatory rather than genuine, and rarely strengthens real team bonds. Meanwhile, peer-to-peer recognition, the stuff that actually matters to employees, gets lost in Slack conversations or never happens at all.

We built KaBoon to change that. Recognition should be:

  • Easy: Right there in Slack where your team already spends their time
  • Fun: Gamified with leaderboards and friendly competition
  • Meaningful: Tied to your company values, not generic corporate buzzwords
  • Measurable: Analytics that show what's really happening in your team culture

What Makes KaBoon Different

Instant Peer-to-Peer Recognition

Give instant awards directly in Slack. No logging into another platform. No friction. Just celebrate your teammates for the good work they're doing, right when it happens.

Live Leaderboards & Seasons

Watch your team compete on dynamic leaderboards that reset with new seasons. This keeps things fresh, prevents recognition from being dominated by the same few people, and maintains engagement month after month.

Values-Driven Recognition

Customize awards around your company's actual values. Whether it's "Innovation," "Customer First," or "Bias to Action," every recognition reinforces the culture you're building.

Meaningful Analytics

See what actually matters to your team. Which values show up most in recognition? Who's being celebrated? What patterns emerge? Use real data to understand and strengthen your culture.

Why This Matters

Companies with strong recognition cultures see:

  • 35% lower turnover (Gallup)
  • Better collaboration and team dynamics
  • Increased engagement from employees who feel seen and valued
  • Clearer alignment with company values in action

KaBoon makes building that culture as simple as having fun with your team.
