Free gamification tool
Give task XP a reason, not just a number.
Use effort, impact, urgency, and collaboration to create a consistent starting XP value. The goal is to reward meaningful work without making the system easy to game.
The scoring model
XP = 10 × effort + 5 × impact + 3 × urgency + 2 × collaboration. Effort gets the largest weight so tiny tasks do not dominate a leaderboard just because there are many of them.
- Cap point farming by avoiding dozens of trivial microtasks
- Do not use XP as a proxy for employee value or compensation
- Compare people carefully when roles have different types of work
- Reward team outcomes alongside individual contribution
Strikd puts XP on the actual workflow.
Use this calculator to think through scoring, then test how gamified completion feels on a real Kanban board.
