announcement Oct 29, 2024

We're continuing our strong streak of improvements this month with another round of updates to end the month across core features such as trivia, birthdays, and peer rewards. Dive in and have a look below!

Trivia - Difficulty Levels

You are now able to select the difficulty of questions you're looking for when starting a game of trivia (either on-demand with the slash command /trivia, or with a recurring instance of trivia).

Trivia - New Questions & Packs

We've added over 7,000 new trivia questions in total as of today, as well as a new pack ("Food & Drink")...

Rotating cast of bdays messages - to make it seem more personal

For some teams, generating unique happy birthday messages for their team on a recurring basis makes all the difference. With today's update, now you can list out a series of happy birthday/birthday celebration messages and CultureBot will pick a new one at random to add with the (also randomized) GIF that is shared out, together this makes nearly every message unique and special to your employees!

To utilize this feature, click the 'edit message' button inside birthdays and check the box for 'rotate messages'. From here, you will want to add on a new birthday message to each line in the message box near the top. That's it!

GIF selector for custom rewards

Looking to add custom rewards for your team? Now you can select a GIF to easily add to the cover of your reward – just click the "choose GIF" button after clicking "+ add custom reward" in the peer rewards section of the CultureBot web app.

New notifications for employees who have left over gift card points

To drive extra awareness of your gift catalog and peer rewards program, notifications will go out for employees who have unused points alerting them that they can use the to redeem gifts inside your store. These notifications will go out after the first day they accrue enough points to redeem the lowest pointed gift in your store, as well as when they have at least 2x times as many points as the lowest pointed gift in your store.
