Recognition that keeps its score.
Give a medal with a ++ or a 🏅 reaction, the moment someone earns it. Via banks it with the reason, files it under the attribute that fits, and keeps an honest leaderboard your channel will actually watch.

A medal is one message away
No new app, no nomination form, no quarterly ritual. Recognition happens in the channel, in the moment — three ways, all landing on the same board.

The everyday give. Type @via @evelyn ++ with a reason and Via banks the medal and says why — so recognition carries its story, not just a number.
Watch the leaderboard actually move
Every give lands live: the score ticks, the row climbs, and the ranking reorders in front of you. It's a board the team keeps for itself — which is exactly why they care where they sit on it.
Scores tick, rows climb — no spreadsheet, no scripts. Just the team, keeping score of the good stuff.
Award the thing they're great at
Medals aren't one undifferentiated pile. Define the attributes your team values — craft, clutch, teamwork, mentorship — and a ++ #tag files the medal under that dimension, each with its own board.
@via @aurellia ++ #craftfiles under #craftThe polish nobody asked for but everybody feels.
Define the attributes that matter to your team. Every ++ #tag files the medal under that dimension — so the board reflects what you actually value, not just who posts most.
It runs in seasons — and crowns a champion
A leaderboard that never resets goes stale. Run yours in seasons — monthly, quarterly, or first-to-N. Via posts the heads-up before it ends, crowns the winner, and starts a fresh board. Standings are always kept in history.
Recognition that pays itself out
Pin a medal to a task when you create it, and the instant it's marked done Via awards the medal and announces it — no one runs a ceremony. The reward you set once closes its own loop.
