GuineaPig - Workplace wellness for teams in Slack

I'd love to get your feedback on our website https://guineapig.app. Here are some questions we're always thinking about:

  1. Do you understand what we do?
  2. Does it make you excited to try it out?
  3. How would you describe us to a friend if they asked what we're doing?

Thanks!

    Hey Elias,

    1. I think I get it! I haven't watched the videos but the rest of the page is well laid out and pretty self-explanatory.
    2. Not personally. I'm pretty self-driven so have been keep away from this type of apps. As a founder/manager, I'm not sure how I feel about it. I'm cautious of not stepping past personal boundaries with my team. The company that acquired us last had a bunch of wellness challenges, eg the person who does the most steps this month wins an Apple Watch. I know that one of my colleagues participated because 1) it aligned with her goal to loose weight before her wedding and 2) she wanted the watch. Other than that, the rest of my colleagues all had individual gym routines that they kept to. I don't know if they'd had welcome such type of app.
    3. Some type of social wellness goal tracker, like indiehacker but for wellness ;)

    Cheers,
    Ben

      Thanks a ton for the feedback, Ben! Appreciate the story from your workplace, I think that's pretty spot on what a lot of founders/managers and employees feel about this. We're trying to figure out a good balance where personal boundaries are clear and where both currently active and less-active team members would love to use our app. Cheers!
