Corporate Wellness Needs a Reset
Enterprise wellness programs are expensive, underutilized, and hard to measure. Companies invest in gym subsidies, wellness portals, health screenings, and meditation apps — yet employee engagement with these programs rarely exceeds 25%. The problem isn't the offerings. It's the motivation model.
Cadoo takes a different approach. Instead of hoping employees will use another wellness app, Cadoo creates team fitness challenges with real financial stakes that drive genuine participation. When your entry fee is on the line, you show up.
How Enterprise Teams Use Cadoo
Team Challenges
Any team leader, HR manager, or wellness coordinator can create a fitness challenge in minutes. Choose the activity (walking, running, pushups, cycling), set daily goals, pick a duration, and share the link with your team. No procurement process. No IT integration. No vendor evaluation.
Department Competitions
Run inter-department fitness competitions using Cadoo's leaderboard and Elimination Game features. Engineering vs. Sales. Marketing vs. Product. Real money on the line creates real competition — and real team bonding.
Company-Wide Wellness Months
Launch a company-wide fitness challenge with a sponsored prize pool. Cadoo's CYOC feature lets you design challenges with entry fees as low as $10, or sponsor the entire prize pool to make participation free for employees.
Remote Team Engagement
For distributed teams, Cadoo creates shared fitness experiences that don't require being in the same location. Everyone competes on the same leaderboard, regardless of where they work.
Why Real Stakes Drive Real Results
Traditional wellness programs rely on intrinsic motivation — exercise because it's good for you. Cadoo adds extrinsic motivation that's proven to work:
- Entry fees create accountability. When $20 is on the line, skipping a workout feels different than when nothing is at stake.
- Competition drives engagement. Real-time leaderboards create social motivation and friendly rivalry.
- Cash rewards reinforce the habit. Winning money for exercising creates a positive feedback loop that traditional wellness programs can't match.
No Enterprise Contract Required
Unlike traditional corporate wellness vendors that require 6-month procurement cycles, Cadoo works out of the box:
- Free to start: Download the app and create a challenge. No subscription required for basic features.
- Self-service setup: Any employee can create a team challenge in under 5 minutes.
- Works with existing trackers: Connects to Apple Health, Google Fit, Fitbit, Garmin, Whoop, and 10+ more. No new hardware needed.
