Make recognition effortless.

As easy as sending a text. Recognition shouldn’t feel like another task. From any phone or computer, staff can Hilight someone in seconds. Simple onboarding and single sign-on make districtwide rollout just as easy.

Put your values into action

Turn what you stand for into something your people experience everyday. Connect every Hilight to your district’s completely custom core values, mission, and identity. Over time, everyday recognition becomes a living picture of who you are, what you value, and how those values show up in practice.

One district. Everyone included.

Connect your people and see where recognition is reaching them. Hilight gives every employee the same opportunity to celebrate and be celebrated, across roles, schools, and departments. Leaders can see where recognition is thriving, where it’s missing, and where to be more intentional.
