Community

A community that levels up together, not just a leaderboard.

Discussion threads, weekly-challenge submissions, mentoring, and messaging: the surfaces where your progress stops being solo and starts becoming everyone's momentum.

Activity XP, with organization privacy controls

Rankings use activity XP. Organization policy can disable leaderboards, anonymize peer identities, or hide levels and XP. Global visibility requires organization opt-in.

"Around me" mode centers the list on your own rank instead of only the top of the org.

Managers get their own

A private team leaderboard lives on the Manager dashboard too, the same rankings scoped to just their reports.

Visibility under your control

Organization-scoped by default. A global board is available only where the organization opts into that visibility.

Scoped and time-boxed

Organization or team, week, month, or all-time, plus an around-me view that centers the list on your own rank.

Mentoring

Structured, not just a name in a directory

Browse eligible mentors and request a structured four-week match. Mentors typically reach Level 12, with configured eligibility exceptions.
