Shram is a gamified work management tool. Not only can you manage projects and tasks but also get real-time reports on each team member's performance. Your productivity is no longer based on number hours worked, but your outcome.
Hi everyone! I am super-excited to share Shram with the Product Hunt community today! 😄
Work management tools are boring and tedious. Most people hate logging in their daily tasks because they are already communicating them over Slack / WhatsApp. So unless pushed by managers, they have little motivation to update their work.
⛔️ As a result, 25% of employees quit their jobs because their efforts are not recognised at work!
To solve this we built Shram, to make boring work management fun, engaging and meaningful. How?
❇️ Tasks are the most basic building blocks of work on Shram to keep it simple for everyone.
❇️ Each task has an approval cycle where you can rate how well it was done by the assignee right before marking it as complete (like rating an Uber ride)
❇️ Completing tasks rewards you with XP and each member must maintain a green XP bar to indicate good performance (this bar resets every week)
We believe that tasks we do reflect a lot about the people behind them. Overtime, they yield rich insights on improving productivity and transparency in teams.
If you have tried conventional tools but could not stick with them, Shram could be a game-changer for you! It boosts team engagement with:
✅ Instant delight, due to workplace gamification, and
✅ Long-term meaning, thanks to our ability to link daily work with performance
As a manager, you can spend more time on your real work instead of pushing your team to log-in their daily tasks into boring tools. As an employee, it could be a fun way of nudging yourself in performing better while documenting your contributions!💪
Shram is meant to be a warm blanket instead of a pair of eyes staring through your privacy at work. Here are a few other cool things about Shram:
⏳ No timers - Instead we record time as your interact with tasks in the background
✨ AI-suggestions - While delegating work, you are shown the ideal assignee & deadline
💬 Instant feedback - While rating, you can also share feedback for each task completed
❌ No leaderboards - We don't encourage unfriendly competition by ranking scores
☀️ Beautiful UI - Dynamic and colourful screens to move between relevant screens
At present Shram is FREE for use until we release the next version by Aug-end '24. That's because we are already trying to improve the app and its functionalities based on the feedback we have received from our current users.
Special thanks to our hunter Rohan Chaubey @rohanrecommends who supported us for this launch. 💪
With this launch, we are primarily looking to gauge the community's sentiment around this idea and also constructive criticism to do better. We look forward to your comments. Thank you for this opportunity! ⭐️
Congratulations on the launch Jay, this looks like a great way forward and meaningful.
One question, what is your Customer Acquisition strategy? Would you like the users to move away from JIRA, ClickUp, AirTable, Asana, etc?
Or do you feel that collaboration and integration with such tools is the way forward?
I hope to see Shram grow into a full-blown product one day.
All the best!
Hey love this tool! Upvoted as well. The tool has a very long onboarding process though- the guidance should be optional I think otherwise there might be a lot of drop-offs.
Great going on becoming 2nd product of the day! Good luck!
Congratulations on you launch! Sounds like a fun way to increase productivity with an amazing UI too!
This is brilliant! Integrating real-time feedback and gamification into work management seems like a great way to keep the team motivated.
Have you considered adding customizable badges or achievements for milestones?
Congratulations on launching Shram! The approach of making work management fun and engaging is much needed. Integrating task approval cycles, XP rewards, and gamification elements are brilliant ways to boost motivation and productivity. The focus on meaningful performance tracking without intrusive monitoring is refreshing. I'm especially excited about the AI suggestions and the beautiful, dynamic UI. I can't wait to see how Shram can transform our team's workflow and morale. Best of luck, and looking forward to seeing it evolve!
I find the visual maintenance in the interface very intuitive. It’s easy to navigate and makes managing tasks straightforward and enjoyable.
We have been using Shram & it's just fantastic. Congratulations on the launch, guys.
The integration with third-party apps is seamless. It’s easy to connect with tools I already use, making the workflow smoother.
I love how the XP system resets every week. It keeps me motivated to maintain good performance consistently.
The approval cycle for tasks ensures that every task is completed to a high standard. It’s a great quality control feature.
The instant delight from the gamification aspect makes work management much more enjoyable. It’s a fun way to stay productive.
The XP system is clever. I can see myself getting oddly competitive about keeping my green bar full each week. Congrats team!
Shram revolutionizes work management by combining project and task management with gamification. It provides real-time performance reports for each team member, shifting the focus from hours worked to actual outcomes. This innovative approach boosts productivity and makes work more engaging and results-oriented.
