Nothing to install: colleagues join through a link. Free for up to 200 members with four games, then $4 per member per month for the full catalog. kwoji.com

Mathis Etcheberry is the founder of Kwoji. He has been running team-building games for three years. The turning point was a game that brought together more than a hundred people who had never met and were playing together within minutes. The question that followed was simple: why does this only happen once a year?
As Head of Product, he spent eight years in fintech and B2B SaaS designing products and making roadmap trade-offs. He graduated from emlyon business school in finance and strategy and holds a Graduate Certificate in Computer Science from HarvardX, which lets him speak the language of both the market and the code.
He builds Kwoji on his own, alongside his job, using Lean methods, short cycles and AI to move from an idea to a testable product in days rather than months. Eighteen games are live in production, together with the Daily Challenge, Insights (Overview, Kwoji Pulse, ideas, surveys and Bravos), and game scheduling in Google Calendar with Google Meet links. The company is bootstrapped and is not raising funds.

Quotes for attribution
Three ready-to-use quotes, on three different angles.
The team-building market sells one memory a year. The rest of the year, nothing happens. That is the exact opposite of what research on team bonding says.
A classic engagement survey asks people how they are doing, and the response rate collapses wave after wave. Kwoji asks the question where employees already come of their own accord, to play.
A morale score without the map of relationships around it does not tell you what to fix. Two teams can show the same bad score and need two opposite things.
