For Slack

Recognition that lives
inside Slack.

Culture Engine is a Slack app for peer-to-peer recognition with real rewards. 1 minute to install, start free, and a bot that lives in the channel your team already opens every morning.

What it does

Three surfaces. Zero learning curve.

/shoutout

Recognise teammates in a modal — not a thread.

Run /shoutout from any channel. Pick one or more teammates, attach a Coin amount, tag the company values it reflects, and optionally attach a screenshot. Posts to your designated #culture-engine channel for the whole team.

/coins

Wallets and budgets visible to every teammate.

Anyone can run /coins to see their giving budget, redeemable balance, and weekly allowance. The bot replies ephemerally — only the person who asked sees it.

Reactions

Pile-ons are first-class.

The bot reacts to every shoutout and keeps the moment alive in-channel, so a win gets the room behind it instead of scrolling away.

What we ask for

Every Slack permission we use, and why.

Least-privilege by default. Anything beyond the basics (like reading message history) lives behind a separate opt-in consent — we don’t ask for it at install.

Full data handling commitments in the Privacy Policy and DPA.
