Turn short social breaks into meaningful activity with Hotseat, a health app that’s an anytime, anywhere addition to workplace wellness programs. Good for the non-athlete and active employee, Hotseat combats "sitting disease" by setting up a personal schedule of 2-minute activity breaks based on each employees capability, comfort and calendar availability. Hotseat uses a system of nudges, social accountability and gameplay to get employees up and moving regularly throughout the day.

Employees create a personalized roster of activities:
- Pick from over 40 activities, including cardio, strength and stretch activities
- Consider intensity level so they pick activities they feel comfortable doing
- Have detailed how-to instructions to support proper performance

Employees set their micro-break schedule:
- Choose how many activity breaks they want to take each day
- Set when they do and dont want to receive these breaks
- Sync with their calendar availability or get breaks pushed at a selected scheduled frequency

Hotseat establishes a daily rotating calendar of activity breaks:
- Pushes activity alert at scheduled break time
- Allows "snooze" time of up to 15 minutes
- Lets employee add new activity breaks at any time

Employees compete in friendly challenges:
- Play the Hotseat game, an elimination game
- Choose from theme-based challenges like the “Return of Jane Fonda”
- Select the start date of their challenge and their opponents
- Include friends and family outside of work (Varies by employer)
- Use strategy and passed activities to eliminate their opponents

Track progress:
- View average activity minutes, game wins and other stats (employees)
