Hey Product Hunters! 🥳 

Brett Hellman here, founder of Matter. 👋 We are excited to share the launch of Feedback Friday! 🥳 The goal of Feedback Friday is to get your team on a weekly feedback streak, by dedicating a day where your team is encouraged to give the gift of feedback and share Kudos (recognition). 🏆 How does Feedback Friday work? 📆 Matter kicks off Feedback Friday for you - Once a week, MatterBot kicks off Feedback Friday with a fun GIF inside your dedicated Slack channel.
 🕹 Gamify participation with fun nudges - MatterBot encourages your team to participate throughout the day with automatic reminders and handy Kudos templates.
 🎁 Recaps and streaks keep your team engaged - MatterBot ends every Feedback Friday on a high note with a recap to celebrate everyone who participated and rewards (gift card, donation, etc.).
 Feedback Friday is fully customizable: ✅ Choose a day that works for your team. ✅ Pick a cadence (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly). ✅ Create or select an existing Slack #matter channel. Additionally in this launch, we snuck in the feature Custom Kudos 🎨 so you can easily turn your company’s values, mission/vision statements, or team’s inside jokes into Kudos. As always, Matter is free to try with unlimited members and feedback. We encourage you to try it out for free by adding it to Slack. 🙌 Lastly, don’t forget to leave any questions or feedback down below! Our team is all eyes and ears. 👀👂 Brett Founder, Matter P.S. Matter also includes: 
🌱 Feedback Surveys: Gather feedback and level up your team. Empower your team to gather and give feedback proactively. 🚀 Continuous Feedback: Grow regularly and intentionally. Make it easy for your team to gather feedback regularly with continuous feedback surveys.

I've been using Matter with my team and we're hooked! We love using kudos to recognize our team's wins and accomplishments. The custom kudos are perfect for personalizing feedback to our team.

@henri_de_bouteiller @benjamin_grandfond2 Thank you! We'd love that. If there's anything we can do to help or any feedback you have to share feel free to reach out to me directly brett [at] matterapp.com

@henri_de_bouteiller @benjamin_grandfond2 great to hear that you are being proactive on this type of initiative. Some teams we hear from look for solutions once they realize there's a problem. Hopefully Matter can take your original initiative to the next level!

Congratulations on the launch! My last company had awards that you could give to other members of staff via a Teams channel and it was great for sharing the love. Sadly the receivers were dominated by people who’s roles interacted with the most people in the company doing lots of small tasks, if your role was longer, larger task based then you rarely received any and certainly didn’t get enough to make it into the top three recipients who would get Amazon vouchers which was a little sad

@simon_barker1 Fascinating! Thankfully that was at your last company. We hope you'll introduce Matter at your new company. It's a lot of fun!
Sam Lepak
Maker
@simon_barker1 thanks for sharing! We've had discussions around avoiding ways to only a few people receive the rewards. Or allowing for people to game it. We believe we have a pretty good plan in place for this so the same won't happen as your last company.

Nice job! Very cool, especially for remote teams. Hope to see mini-games in it in future.

@farokh_shahabi Mini-games, I'm dying to learn more! What would you like to see in terms on mini-games on Matter?
Sam Lepak

@farokh_shahabi 100% regarding remote teams, especially ones that use to be in office are finding this a solid way to continue employee engagement and make it feel like they never left the office.
Farokh Shahabi
@bretthellman For example, we have game nights once a week to have a little bit fun and socialize with each other (we're a distributed team), it would be great to play these games like scategories, spy, pictionary, etc. on Matter. We usually do it using Zoom or discord and playing an online game.

We have been following Matter and love the concept, engaging new look and feel! It is critically important to have engaging ways to connect and provide meaningful feedback to employees as we have come through Covid lockdown and continue to embrace a hybrid model of working in the office and remote. We Matter will continue to enhance employee engagement and retention!

@hilary_hellman you're absolutely spot on! All these circumstances have created a big wave of need to focus on team culture. Whether that be through feedback, recognition, appreciation, or rewarding.
Evan Laird
Super dope stuff and have loved that it’s free! Great product overall. The team and I have been doing Feedback Fridays for a few weeks now and the kudos have really added another level of fun to end the week. Being a 100% remote team it’s been super important for us to stick together and showcase what everyone is working on behind the scenes. Feedback Fridays have definitely help with team happiness and feeling like one team while we share each others accomplishments and hard work being rewarded.

@lairdep23 awesome to hear on all accounts! Lots of teams have felt a big drop-off in culture and communication since going remote. Happy to hear Hallow is prioritizing their team members and recognizing them for all their hard work!

@lairdep23 Thank you Evan! So happy to hear #FeedbackFriday is working so well with your team.

I'm so happy to be a part of this launch! One of my favorite parts about Feedback Friday is the Custom Kudos feature: Now everyone on the team can get creative with unique Kudos based on team values, teammates' superpowers, or inside jokes. It's such a fun ritual to look forward to each week!
Sam Lepak

@alex_dvorak Custom Kudos is my favorite feature too! Love being able to create them around popular memes too.
