Automate employee recognition scoring and rewards

Employees submit peer recognition through a form, and AI categorizes it, scores it, and recommends rewards.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs.

The problem it solves

Recognizing great work often depends on someone remembering to do it, and nominations rarely get tracked or followed up consistently. Good work goes unnoticed, and you have no easy way to see who deserves recognition each month.

Who it fits

HR teams and managers who want a consistent, low-effort way to run peer recognition.

How it works

  1. An employee submits a nomination through a form
  2. AI classifies it into a category like teamwork, innovation, or leadership
  3. AI scores the nomination's strength and suggests a reward amount
  4. The nomination is logged to a spreadsheet
  5. The nominator, the nominee, and HR each get an email notification
What you get

Recognition nominations scored and ready to reward

You get every peer recognition nomination categorized, scored, and paired with a suggested reward amount for you to approve.

What you get

A logged, scored recognition record plus automatic thank-you and congratulations emails, and monthly award recommendations.

What you need

A form-builder account, a Google Sheets account, an OpenAI API key, and a Gmail account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
