Peer recognition
Recognition and kudos, making great work visible.
Great work goes unnoticed. Someone works overtime to finish the project and nobody says thank you — so next time they do the minimum. Synthro makes recognition public: peers send kudos, managers see contributions, and everyone feels valued.
The problem
Nobody says thank you. Good employees leave.
Great work goes unnoticed
John helped three teammates solve critical bugs this week. Nobody knows — his manager only sees the delayed task, and the review suffers. Synthro lets teammates send kudos publicly, so everyone sees who is really helping.
Only managers give recognition
Your manager says "good job" once a quarter. The teammates who helped you daily never get credit. Synthro enables peer-to-peer kudos — recognition comes from the people who actually see your work.
No way to track contributions
Lisa helped with ten projects last quarter. At review time the manager forgot all of them — no records. Synthro logs every kudos with a date and reason, giving you instant proof of contributions.
Top performers feel invisible
Your best employee does three times the work but gets the same recognition as everyone else, so they start job-hunting. The Synthro kudos leaderboard shows who is being recognised — high performers feel seen.
Recognition feels fake
A generic "Employee of the Month" email lands and nobody cares. Synthro requires a specific reason for every kudos — "thanks for staying late to fix the client issue" — so recognition feels genuine.
Good work has no impact
You go above and beyond, get a "thanks" email, and it is back to work as usual. Synthro awards points for kudos that tie into the gamification system, so good work becomes tangible, not just words.
The system
Gamified recognition with points and leaderboards.
Real peer-to-peer recognition that drives engagement. Employees earn points for giving and receiving kudos, compete on monthly leaderboards, unlock achievements, and build a culture where great work gets noticed.

How it works
Celebrate wins in three steps.
Give kudos
See a teammate do great work? Click "Give Kudos", choose the person and a category — teamwork, innovation — and write why you are recognising them.
Share publicly or privately
Post to the company feed for public celebration, or send privately. The employee gets an email notification and earns points toward their gamification score.
Track and reward
Managers see who is being recognised. At review time the kudos history auto-populates, and top recognisers and recipients appear on the leaderboards.
