@nataliekarakina love to hear how kudos will strengthen and reinforce InAppStory culture, Natalie! Thank you for your support 🌱🌱

@nataliekarakina Honestly, what a great shirt idea: "I ❤️ Kudos." Thank you for your support, Natalie!
Sławomir Pawlak
Oh how much I've missed something like that in my previous job ;o Good job!
Brett Hellman
@slawomir_pawlak You are awesome for saying that. Thank you!
Tai Tran
@slawomir_pawlak Exactly! So many exit interviews regularly have under appreciation as the top culprit for the exit. We Matter can make a dent in this statistic.
Dixita Limbachia
@slawomir_pawlak Thank you! 🥳 With Matter, you can do so much!

Congrats @matter_hq team. You're doing great work and helping people in this new normal of remote/hybrid work. Now how about a promo code? :P
Francesca Gabales
Thanks, @phil_miller1! Matter is free to use, with unlimited seats and unlimited feedbacks. We do have some sweet paid features to upgrade your team's experience coming soon - give it a try, we'd love to hear your feedback!

@phil_miller1 Promo code? 😗 🧐 You're onto something...👀
Dmitry Saprykin
Feedback was managed poorly in my previous companies. Having quarterly reviews don't make sense since I already don't remember what I wanted to comment on for a particular person. Excited to be able to give-receive feedback on my own schedule.
Tai Tran
@dmitry_saprykin2 We're so happy to have you onboard, Dmitry! Our Slack integration continues to improves with new team-centric features all thanks to your contribution. 🙌
Dixita Limbachia
@dmitry_saprykin2 Ahhh so happy to have you on the team! Can't wait to make some Matter magic ✨
Bilal Chaglani
Seems like a great tool to encourage feedback and build a positive work environment. Will surely save this product to use when our team size grows over 10. All the best makers!!
Brett Hellman
@bilal_chaglani Thank you for the kind note. Matter will encourage more feedback and improve your team's culture. During our private beta we found: - 2.7x: Teams that use Matter receive 2.7x more feedback. - 7x: Teams that connect to Slack receive 7x more Kudos. It's also great to hear you are planning to use Matter when your team size grows to over 10. One thing to think about, why wait? Even a team of two would benefit from using Matter - and it's free so why not get started?
Tai Tran
@bilal_chaglani We've found that all teams typically benefit from regular recognition. For teams of 2-5, you can always set your weekly Feedback Rituals to every other week or monthly. As your team grows, try updating the cadence to weekly!
Dixita Limbachia
@bilal_chaglani 😱 Thank you! Even if you're a team less than 10 you can still use Matter! Definitely check out our Kudos feature to celebrate all the big and small wins!
Gazelle Motia
appreciation culture is something still undermined by any organization, and it has an invaluable positive effect on companies culture, best of luck and well done
Brett Hellman
@ghazale_motia Thank you! Positive feedback is just as powerful as constructive feedback.
Tai Tran
@ghazale_motia So true, Ghazale. Teams go through rituals like sprint planning and retrospective. Yet we don’t dedicate time to recognize. Retros are great, but most of the time, they’re still used to figure out areas for improvements and not recognize!
Brett Hellman
Dixita Limbachia
@ghazale_motia You're 100% right! Appreciation culture does tend to get overshadowed in the workplace. With Kudos and Slack Integration, we hope to see more public praises!

We use 15 Five at Databricks to collect weekly feedback, public praises, and status updates. I think this kind of system is especially important for remote-first teams because I noticed we started relying on 15 Five more during the height of the pandemic. However I personally think the content/copy and the UI of Matter 2.0 is a lot better, so great job everyone!
Dixita Limbachia
@akil_welihandaa Thank you for those kind words, Akila! If you have any feedback for us, we're all ears! 🤗
Brett Hellman
@akil_welihandaa It's great to hear you and your team take the time to feedback. You're already ahead of so many teams and companies. We hope you'll give Matter a try, I'd love to hear your product feedback. My direct email: brett [at] matterapp.com -- thank you!
Akila Welihinda
@bretthellman I'll be sure to let you know when/if we do. Thanks!
Crina Craciun
Great product for designers! They get a bad rap as being introverted and sensitive. The lack of open discussions can lead to disagreements and disappointments, especially when feedback is both unsolicited and unstructured. This product is ideal for multidisciplinary teams!
Tai Tran
@crina_craciun EXACTLY, Crina. I remember one of my first managers asking on my first day how I'd like to receive and give feedback. That was such an aha moment that we all process feedback differently. Matter truly enables team members of all different learning styles to celebrate and share continuous feedback. Time over time, there are always team members who prefer to process feedback (and recognition) on their own time. Please report back on your findings after trying Matter with your team!
Brett Hellman
@crina_craciun absolutely.
Dixita Limbachia
@crina_craciun Yes!!! You got it, Crina. With Matter, we want folks from any and all industries to use Matter. Feedback is the key to professional and personal development, and that's something we want everyone to experience so they can reach their goals!
Ipsita Deshmukh
Seems like a great way to keep teams connected and boost morale!
Brett Hellman
@ipsitadeshmukh it sure is!
Tai Tran
@ipsitadeshmukh All within Slack too!
Dixita Limbachia
@ipsitadeshmukh When you try out it, we'd love to get your feedback! 🥳
