What if you could tell your employees: Give me two minutes a few times per day. You can use your phone, your activity preferences, your calendar availability, your social network. I'll help you unclog your mind and uncramp your body.

That’s the promise of Hotseat, a health app that turns short breaks into meaningful activity through nudges, social accountability and playful competition.
How short breaks stand up to illness

Hotseat doesn’t rely on employees remembering to get up and move. It nudges them to do so using one of their favorite accessories: their smartphone. That means employees don’t need to be at their desk, or even have a desk, to benefit.

Employees set their preferred activities and then outsource the exercise scheduling to Hotseat. Hotseat reviews their calendar availability and slots a series of two-minute activity breaks into their day. When it’s time for a break, Hotseat sends a gentle but persistent reminder to get up and go.

With Hotseat, employees organize the game play. They choose the challenge, the start date, and the team. The winner is always the last person standing. Literally.

Hotseat shows employees how quickly their brief activity breaks add up and whether they’re slipping or improving. When employees play the Hotseat game, Hotseat shares their participation stats. It’s up to them to gloat about it.

Hotseat works because it does the heavy lifting for your employees and doesn’t ask for more than two minutes at a time. Those two minutes add up to higher productivity levels, more focused time at work, increased collaboration and better health.
Don’t believe it?

Let Hotseat do the heavy lifting for you too. With easy registering, real-time reporting, and a promotional toolkit to increase awareness and participation, you won’t lift a finger, though we do encourage you to move your chassis.
