Lift up your team in the moment.

Big Ups is peer recognition where you work. When someone on your team does something awesome (big or small), you want to let them know. Send a big up directly in Slack in seconds, and never lose that moment again. Read through them later for a team retro, performance review, or just a feel good moment.

A few minutes to install, and no card. Free to start, and $3 a month for each person on your roster when your team realizes how much they love it. There is no setup fee, no minimum term and no annual commitment.

Easy to send, kept for good, no games

Send from anywhere

Jamie Okonkwo thanking Wen Zhao in a Slack channel: a big up tagged with the value Generosity.

A slash command in Slack, or the web app if you prefer. It lands in a public channel, in their DMs, and in their feed.

It sticks around

The recognition feed's Recent Big Ups header with its Filter button, above two kept big ups: Jamie Okonkwo thanking Wen Zhao, tagged Generosity, and Esteban Tran thanking Kai Freeman, tagged Integrity.

Every big up is kept and searchable. Useful in a one-to-one, and considerably more useful at review time.

No games

One big up: Jamie Okonkwo thanks Wen Zhao for spending most of a day helping with something outside her own work, tagged with the value Generosity.

No streak to keep alive, no rank to defend, and nothing telling anyone they are behind. Just genuine recognition.

See everything Big Ups does

Nothing here is compelled.

Nobody is prompted, nudged or scored, and nothing tells anyone they are behind.

That is on purpose. A message sent to clear a balance or hold a rank is worth nothing to the person who receives it, and everybody involved knows it. What arrives in your Slack arrived because somebody chose to send it.

We bill for the people on your roster, not for the messages they send. On a paid plan, nothing anyone sends changes what you pay.
