Recognition should run like an operating system, not a good intention.
Orlo Recognition helps organizations assess, structure, and operationalize employee recognition through a free audit, practical digital tools, and a free 45-day pilot. Build consistency through calendar ownership, manager prompts, participation tracking, and clear reporting.
Start With the Free Recognition Audit
The free Orlo Recognition Audit gives HR and leadership teams a simple way to evaluate where recognition is breaking down before committing to a broader engagement. It is the easiest entry point for organizations that want clarity on structure, ownership, consistency, and follow-through.
What the audit helps uncover
Use the audit to identify gaps in recognition ownership, manager participation, calendar consistency, visibility, and operational follow-through.

Request pilotFree Pilot Program
The Orlo Recognition Pilot tests whether structured recognition operations improve manager participation and recognition consistency across an organization. It is designed to show what changes when recognition is managed with structure instead of memory.
45-Day Recognition Program
A focused pilot engagement built around five structured recognition moments, weekly manager prompts, participation tracking, and an end-of-pilot impact report.
Recognition Moments
Each week focuses on a distinct type of recognition so the organization can test consistency across different recognition categories.
Individual Appreciation
Managers recognize one employee for recent contributions.
Project Contribution Recognition
Recognition tied to project outcomes or deliverables.
Initiative and Leadership Recognition
Recognizing employees who stepped up or helped the team.
Milestone Recognition
Celebrating work anniversaries or major accomplishments.
Team Recognition
Recognizing collaboration and group achievements.
What Orlo Manages During the Pilot
Orlo handles the operational layer that typically breaks consistency, creating a cleaner experience for HR and a simpler follow-through path for managers. These same principles also show up in Orlo's standalone digital tools for teams that want to start smaller.
Expected Outcomes
The pilot is built to show whether recognition becomes more consistent, more visible, and easier to sustain when there is an operating owner behind it.
How the Pilot Works
A simple engagement path designed to keep setup light and execution clear.
Confirm recognition goals, stakeholders, manager group, and approval expectations.
Build the 45-day calendar, prepare manager prompts, and finalize recognition moment structure.
Managers receive guided prompts while participation is tracked across each recognition moment.
Close the pilot with a summary of participation, visibility, and operational learnings.
