The problem it solves

Remembering every employee's birthday and work anniversary gets hard once your team grows past a handful of people, and milestones slip by unnoticed. Writing a fresh, genuine-sounding message every time also takes more thought than a busy manager usually has time for.

Who it fits

HR teams or managers at a small or mid-size company who want to keep celebrating employees personally as headcount grows.

How it works

  1. Every morning, the system checks your employee spreadsheet for birthdays and work anniversaries
  2. For each match, it asks an AI model to write a unique, warm message for that person
  3. The message is posted straight to your team's group chat
  4. The activity is logged so nothing gets celebrated twice
What you get

Personal birthday shoutouts nobody forgets to send

Every teammate gets a warm, personal birthday or anniversary shoutout in your team chat right on the day, without anyone having to remember the date.

What you get

A personalized birthday or anniversary message posted automatically to your team's chat each day it applies.

What you need

A Google Workspace account for Sheets and Chat, and access to a Google Gemini AI model.

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.
