laudamus quod amamus
Recognition in Slack that names the value, not just the person.
Register your company values once. Anyone types /shoutout, picks a teammate, the value they lived, and says why. It posts in the channel and lands in a dashboard the whole team can see.

How it works
Three steps. No training.
If your team already uses Slack, they already know how to use Celebratvs.
-
Install
Click Add to Slack. Whoever installs becomes the first admin. A starter set of values is created so you can try it in the next minute.
-
Register your values
Replace the starter set with yours. A name, an emoji, one line on what living it looks like. Five is plenty. Ten is too many.
-
Type /shoutout
In any channel. Pick the person, pick the value, write why. It posts where the team is talking and shows up in the dashboard right away.
Features
Small on purpose
One command, one dashboard, a handful of settings. Everything here exists to make a thank-you more specific.
-
Values come first
Every shout-out names a value. Not “great job” but “Ownership, because she stayed on the incident until it was closed.” The value is the point, not decoration.
-
A dashboard everyone sees
Leaderboard, shout-outs by value, weekly trend, live feed. Not a manager-only view. Anyone in the workspace signs in with Slack and sees the same numbers.
-
A monthly limit per person
Admins set how many shout-outs each person can give per month. Scarcity keeps it honest. Three a month says more than thirty.
-
Speaks your team’s language
Slack modal, channel messages and dashboard in English or Brazilian Portuguese. Set once per workspace.
-
Only the shout-out is stored
We keep the shout-out text, who gave it, who received it, and the value. We do not read channels or DMs. The app has no permission to.
-
Your workspace, your data
Each Slack workspace is its own isolated tenant. Nothing crosses over. Remove the app and ask us to delete everything: we will.
Our position
Why values, not points
Most recognition tools hand out points and a gift catalogue. We think that is backwards. Points turn a thank-you into a transaction, and the catalogue turns your teammates into customers. A shout-out is a different thing. It says: I saw you do what we said we care about. That sentence, said in public, every week, is how a value stops being a poster on the wall and becomes a habit. So there are no points in Celebratvs. There is a name, a value, and a reason. After a few months the dashboard shows you which values your team actually lives — and which ones are only on the wall. We built it for our own team first. Then other teams asked for it.

FAQ
Straight answers
-
What exactly do you store?
The text of each shout-out, who gave it, who received it, the value, and when. Plus the Slack user IDs, names and avatars needed to display them. Nothing else. The app has no permission to read channel history or direct messages, and we never ask for it. -
Who can install it?
Anyone your Slack workspace allows to add apps. The person who installs becomes the first admin and can promote others. Admins manage values, the monthly limit and the language. Everyone else can give shout-outs and see the dashboard. -
Can I give myself a shout-out?
No. Slack will tell you so, politely. Recognition is something you receive from someone else. -
Is there a limit on shout-outs?
Only if your admin sets one. Admins can cap how many shout-outs each person gives per calendar month. Receiving is never limited. We recommend a cap: it makes each one count. -
Which languages are supported?
English and Brazilian Portuguese, both in Slack and in the dashboard. The admin sets the language for the workspace. Need another one? Tell us; the strings are short. -
How do I cancel?
Remove the app from your Slack workspace. That is the whole process. Until billing opens there is nothing to cancel anyway. If you also want your data gone, email us and we delete the workspace's records.
Start with one shout-out
Install, keep the starter values or write yours, and thank one person today. The habit starts there.
