Kona

Kona is the burnout prevention platform for remote teams. Built for Slack. Our team has interviewed 1,000+ remote managers since January 2020. The biggest issues remote leaders face are team building, burnout, and belonging.

That's why we've built Kona. Kona turns leadership best practices into actionable habits and people analytics without leaving Slack. That way remote companies can scale the best parts of their culture.

At Kona, our employees are living our mission by working remotely from anywhere, anytime. We’re a diverse team working asynchronously across several time zones and hire based on talent, not location. We're always looking for our next teammate, so check out our open roles!

Our founding team bonded over prior bad experiences with remote work. A terrible manager. A failed startup. A summer of burnout.

We knew work could be better, healthier, and happier. So we turned to experts to learn what makes remote work hard. We've interviewed 1500+ leaders since January 2020.

Their pain was loud and clear. Remote teams are built on trust. But it’s difficult to build relationships and understand how everyone feels without meeting face-to-face.

We built 🐶 [Kona](https://heykona.com) to help remote workers support mental health, fight burnout and build connections without changing how they work. We empower leaders to support their teams where they need it most.

To us, empathy and wellbeing at work aren't just an add-on. They're a must-have.
