Why Kick

The structure your team needs.
None of the process it doesn’t.

Team rituals are useful. Chasing updates, choosing a volunteer, and remembering to recognize good work are not.

Kick makes those moments consistent and lightweight, with clear prompts inside the place your team already works.

Four focused workflows

A small command can change the rhythm of a team.

Every workflow opens a focused Slack experience and returns the result where the team can act on it.

Async standups

Turn daily updates into team clarity.

Kick collects yesterday, today, blockers, mood, and optional kudos in one focused Slack modal. Review recent updates whenever the team needs context.

/syncUse /sync -r 7 for a seven-day report.

Recognition

Make appreciation visible.

Send specific kudos while the good work is still fresh. Teams can choose their own celebration emoji and look back at recent recognition.

/kudosUse /kudos -r 7 to review recent kudos.

Fair participation

Randomly choose one or more eligible channel members for a task, question, or rotation. Add an optional prompt to keep recurring rituals fresh.

/pickChoose the group, number of people, and optional question.

Privacy by restraint

Only the data needed to run the workflow.

Kick uses Slack workspace, channel, and member information to operate team workflows. It does not store team members’ email addresses.

What is Kick Bot for Slack?

Kick is a Slack productivity bot for async standups, team kudos, lightweight rewards, and fair random picks. Everything happens through slash commands and Slack modals, so teammates do not need another account or dashboard.

How do Slack standups work with Kick?

Run /sync in a public Slack channel. Kick opens a form for mood, yesterday’s work, today’s plan, blockers, and optional kudos. Use /sync -r followed by a number from 1 to 30 to review recent team updates.

Which Slack commands does Kick provide?

The main commands are /sync for standups, /kudos for recognition, /coins for team rewards, and /pick for random selection. Add -h to a command to see its current help.

Does Kick require a separate account?

No. Kick uses Slack’s installation and identity flow. Team members use it directly inside Slack without creating another login or sharing their email address with Kick.

Is Kick free?

Kick includes its core team workflows for free. There is no separate paid account required to install and try the app in a Slack workspace.

What Slack data does Kick store?

Kick stores the workspace information and authorization needed to operate, plus workflow records such as submitted standups and recognition. It does not store team members’ email addresses. See the privacy policy for retention and deletion details.
