Employee engagement programs almost always start with a real intent ("we want people to feel connected to the values") and end up running on autopilot announcements ("reminder: values workshop Friday at 2pm"). The gap between intent and execution is what every People Ops leader fights — and it's not a content gap, it's a format gap. People don't engage with announcements; they engage with shared moments. The Trivana employee engagement pack converts the announcement model into a hosted activity model.
A hosted engagement game isn't trivia for trivia's sake. It's a structured way to surface what the team is supposed to remember (values, principles, recognition moments, team facts) through a competitive, scoreable, shareable format. Instead of asking employees to read a values doc and absorb it passively, the game makes them choose between answer options grounded in actual values content. The active recall is what produces retention. The leaderboard is what produces conversation.
When you buy a pack, you send a brief: the engagement moment (quarterly values refresher, recognition month wrap, all-hands warm-up, new policy rollout, team retro), the audience profile, brand context, and source material we should ground the questions in (values doc, recent team wins, recognition nominations, the actual content you're trying to land). Trivana writes the round around your real content, picks a voice host that matches your culture, and ships a shareable link within 2 business days. The pack is reusable — the same values refresher can run quarterly for 12 months before it needs a refresh.
For recurring engagement programs, the $399 Three-Pack Campaign is the strongest first test. Three themed rounds spanning one quarter — for example: Month 1 (company values quiz), Month 2 (team recognition wrap), Month 3 (product/team-context refresher). Sending one pack per month inside a Slack channel or all-hands meeting produces consistent engagement signal across the quarter, and the rounds compound on each other (the values round from Month 1 informs context for Month 3).
For larger teams running monthly or bi-weekly engagement rituals, Trivana Teams at $99/mo unlocks unlimited self-serve generation with 5 creator seats. The math: at 4 packs per month from the $149 pricing, you're at $596/month for done-for-you. The Teams plan at $99/mo + a People Ops lead generating the rounds in-house (5 min each) is ~6× cheaper at higher volume. Most teams start with $149 or $399 to validate the format, then move to Teams once the cadence proves out.
The async-friendly format is the unlock for distributed teams. Hosted engagement games work across timezones — a values refresher can run async over a 7-day window with the full team competing on the same leaderboard. Compare to scheduled live workshops which require everyone to show up at 2pm Pacific (impossible for global teams) — the async pattern is the difference between 30% participation and 80% participation for a distributed company.
Best fit for the employee engagement pack model: People Ops or HR leads running quarterly engagement programs; internal comms teams shipping recurring campaigns (recognition months, values refreshers, culture surveys); founders at 20-200 person companies building repeatable rituals before they hire a dedicated employee experience role; managers running team rituals (weekly standups, monthly retros, recognition shoutouts); HR consultants white-labeling engagement programs for client teams. If your engagement cadence is monthly or higher, Trivana Teams ($99/mo) is the right tier.
Employee engagement games are also the gateway to the rest of the Trivana stack. Teams that start with an engagement pack often move into adjacent use cases — onboarding trivia (see /use-cases/onboarding-trivia-game), team-building offsites (see /use-cases/team-building-trivia), and virtual event engagement (see /use-cases/virtual-event-trivia). The same delivery process works for all of them; the Trivana Teams plan covers all formats.
