Description

HeyTaco is a fun peer recognition platform that builds happier teams by inspiring positive communication. With gamification mechanisms like leaderboards and achievement levels, HeyTaco makes recognizing teammates rewarding. By using tacos as a currency, the silliness and less seriousness lead to higher engagement and more genuine recognition. When people feel appreciated in the workplace, it boosts morale and helps improve retention rates. People who feel appreciated are generally happier, more productive, and ultimately better for business.
