Kwoji is an employee engagement platform launched in June 2025 by Mathis Etcheberry. Every week, it does what an offsite and an annual survey do once a year. It builds bonds: eighteen multiplayer games launched in one click, on desktop or mobile, remote or in the office, with built-in voice and video, plus a one-minute Daily Challenge shared by the whole company. It detects weak signals: a weekly Kwoji Pulse, a quarterly eNPS, surveys and an Insights space designed with HR directors, analyzed by a French AI hosted in France. Never an individual answer. Free for up to 200 members with four games, then $4 per member per month, billed annually, for all eighteen games and Insights. kwoji.com

Mathis Etcheberry is the founder of Kwoji. As Head of Product, he spent eight years in fintech and B2B SaaS designing products and making roadmap trade-offs. A graduate of emlyon business school in finance and strategy, with a Graduate Certificate in Computer Science from HarvardX, he speaks the language of both the market and the code. He builds Kwoji alongside his job as Head of Product at a hybrid company of more than 250 employees, so that the bond between colleagues lasts all year.
Mathis Etcheberry is the founder of Kwoji. One evening at an offsite, he ran a game for more than a hundred colleagues who barely knew each other. Two hours later, they were investigating each other like old friends. The next day, everyone was back to their own team and their video calls. He created Kwoji so that this bond lasts all year, not one evening a year.

Kwoji, launched in June 2025, brings together eighteen multiplayer games with built-in voice and video, a one-minute Daily Challenge shared by the whole company, Kudos and an anonymous idea box. On the measurement side: Kwoji Pulse every week, a quarterly eNPS, surveys and Insights, designed with HR directors. The Galaxy shows how each team is doing, the Compass spots teams that thrive, isolate themselves or are under strain, and a French AI hosted in France prepares a report for the executive committee. The company is bootstrapped.

Quotes for attribution
Three ready-to-use quotes, on three different angles.
One offsite a year for the bond, one survey a year for measurement. Kwoji does both, every week, because measuring engagement has never created engagement.
A classic engagement survey asks people how they are doing. 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.
