Questions before rollout

Straight answers for challenge programs.

Is this only step challenges?
No. Steps are popular, but the library covers mental health, nutrition, sleep, team social habits, and multi-activity Custom programs with weekly themes.
Can HR create challenges without engineering help?
Yes. Custom, Race, Journey, Streak, and E-Marathon are self-serve from the admin dashboard. Specialized formats such as Level, GPS marathon events, Weight Burn, and Training Plans are available with your account manager.
Do employees need a wearable?
No. Phone step sync covers many races and marathons. Streaks and Custom tasks often use in-app logs for breathing, meals, mindfulness, and sleep check-ins.
Can we run more than one challenge at once?
Yes. Parallel challenges are supported so different teams, sites, or themes can run in the same period without forcing a single company-wide program.
How do we pick a first challenge?
Many organizations start with a short Race on steps or a simple Streak. Once habits stick, expand into Custom multi-week programs or team mode on Streak, Journey, or Custom.
