Who it's for
- Engineering and product teams
- Remote-first companies
- HR and people-ops leads
- Managers running 1:1s
The problem
- ·Long surveys have single-digit completion rates.
- ·Anonymous Slack polls don't surface the 'why' behind a low score.
- ·By the time you notice morale is off, it's too late.
How it works
- 1
Set up a weekly segment with your team's emails.
- 2
We send a one-tap rating every Friday (or any cadence).
- 3
High scores close the loop with a thank-you.
- 4
Low scores open a private textbox: 'What's making the week hard?'
- 5
You see the trend over time — no spreadsheet required.
Example question
“How are you feeling this week?”
Threshold: 4/5 — ratings at or above this number route to the review page; below this number trigger a private follow-up.
Questions
Are responses anonymous?
Responses are tied to the email you sent to, so you can follow up 1:1. If you need fully anonymous pulses, use segments without names.
Can I change the question each week?
Yes — create a new flow per week, or reuse the same flow and duplicate it when you want a variation.
