Recognition Values — Tie employee recognition to company values and track culture analytics

Admins can now define a library of company values directly in Recognition settings. When an employee gives a shout-out or award, they can tag it with the value it best represents — such as "Customer First," "Own It," or "Act with Integrity." A new analytics view breaks down recognition activity by value, showing which values are being lived most actively across the organization and which may need attention.

Use case: An HR manager runs a quarterly culture review and pulls the "recognition by value" breakdown to see that Customer First and Teamwork are thriving while Innovation lags — then uses that data to design targeted programs.

Available in: Recognition → Settings → Values

Broadcast Acknowledgment Tracking via API — Surface unread action-required alerts in mobile and integrated apps

Two new API endpoints make it easier for mobile apps and third-party integrations to surface outstanding acknowledgment-required broadcasts to users. The /api/v1/home endpoint returns a prioritized list of alerts that require user action across all categories, and the Broadcasts API now supports a pending-acknowledgment filter that returns only broadcasts the requesting user has not yet acknowledged. Together they give integrations the data they need to drive timely responses without polling the full notification stream.

Use case: A frontline worker opens their mobile app and sees a prompt for an unacknowledged safety alert from the previous shift — tapping it takes them directly to the broadcast where they can confirm they have read it.

Available in: Broadcast → API (GET /api/v1/home, GET /api/v1/broadcasts?pending_ack=true)

News Feed Poll Results in List API — Poll vote counts and percentages available directly in the feed index

The /api/v1/feeds list response now includes full poll result data — total votes, per-option vote counts, and percentage breakdowns — alongside each poll card. Previously this data was available only on the individual post detail endpoint, requiring mobile clients to fetch each poll separately to render results. The data respects the same visibility rules as the detail endpoint: results are withheld for open polls where the current user has not yet voted, and are visible once they have voted, once the poll closes, or for authors and admins.

Use case: A mobile developer building a news feed screen can now render live poll results directly on feed cards without a separate API call per poll — reducing page-load network traffic and improving perceived performance for employees on slow connections.

Available in: News Feed → API (GET /api/v1/feeds)
