Purpose and limits
Stars recognise selected activity recorded in Vimbre. They are not a performance score and should not be used in employee reviews, pay decisions or ratings. They do not measure the quality, difficulty or full value of someone’s work.
Your choice and visibility
Competition is off until a company administrator enables it. Each person separately chooses whether to appear. Individual rankings are limited to opted-in people in the same team. Private task titles, conversations and decision content are not shown in rankings. You can hide yourself in Settings.
What is measured
Eligible dated tasks must exist for at least ten minutes before completion. Task credit is weighted by priority and estimated time. Approved cover tasks earn double credit. The daily cap is 15 stars. Undo removes an award, and completing the same task again earns no additional credit. Splitting work into smaller tasks must not be used to increase credit.
Level badges and cheers
Level badges use your lifetime count of distinct qualifying completed tasks with a valid, non-voided task award. Starter begins at 0 tasks, Steady at 10, Sharp at 25, Trusted at 40 and Anchor at 60. Weighted star totals remain separate from this task count; Undo removes a qualifying completion. Badges do not reset with the weekly leaderboard. You can cheer one teammate per day; the cheer counts within the recipient’s daily star cap.
Responsible use
Companies should explain the measurements and audience to their people. Stars must not disadvantage people who do slow, difficult or less visible work. Leave and absence must not be treated as poor performance.
