Giving feedback at work is hard. You want to say something, but the timing never feels right, so you wait for the official feedback cycle to begin. Or you start typing it out and delete it, because what if it lands wrong? What if it costs you the relationship?
Giftback is a lamp for office meeting rooms that acts as a feedback catalyst. Users talk to it in any language and it asks guiding questions to help articulate thoughts before they turn into frustration. Finally, it prints a card combining the feedback with generated art to hand directly to the recipient.
It's built for multi-generational, high-context workplaces across South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Asia, where saying the direct thing out loud often isn't how communication works. The goal is to shift feedback from something that happens once a quarter to something that can happen the moment it's needed.
