Thanks for the support. We're trying to solve a similar problem as BetterWorks was, but with a completely different approach. If you're unfamiliar with BetterWorks, you can read more about them here: http://www.crunchbase.com/company/betterworks

Interesting. Along the vein of similarity to other services, your approach looks kind of similar to AnyPerk. From what I can sort of gather, you are going the approach of providing on demand perks, for individual recognition, and not an ongoing perk? Is that an accurate assessment?

Well, AnyPerk and similar services are discount based. From our what we believe section: "Discounts aren't effective. There's a difference between "here's a discount" and offering something special."

With Uncover, you can provide both ongoing perks as well as individual recognition. We call those two products "Benefits" and "Rewards".
