AI checks. Human review. Your own words. ↓Office Christmas party ideas
A party people can choose.
Check preferences before booking. An evening party, a meal during work and a remote gathering are different choices, and each leaves some people out unless you plan for them.
- 01
A meal during work
Arrange cover so the service and support teams can take part. Ask about dietary and access needs directly, and keep those details with the organiser.
- 02
Small local gatherings
For several offices, let teams choose a suitable local plan within an agreed budget. Do not make travel to headquarters the price of being included.
- 03
A short remote gathering
Keep the time inside the team’s working hours. An optional activity and a clear finish can suit colleagues who cannot travel or do not want an evening event.
- 04
A card beyond the guest list
Invite remote, part-time and absent colleagues to add words for the person or team being thanked. Attendance at a party is not the same as contribution to the year.
- 05
A year-end thank you
Use a Christmas card when that suits the recipient, or a thank you card for a broader year-end occasion. Let the person’s preference guide the choice.
The organiser’s list
Before you book.
Confirm the budget and ask what people can attend. Give the card an organiser and an opening date rather than leaving it with the party venue.
- Ask about timing, food and access needs.
- Offer an alternative for people who cannot attend.
- Arrange cover for working shifts.
- Choose Christmas or year-end wording with the recipient.
- Give contributors a deadline before leave starts.
AI safety checks
People write.
AI checks.
The check looks for threats, abuse, sexual content, spam and exposed private details. Flagged notes are kept off the card for a person to review.
How the checks work ↗A person can correct it
Company cards have a spam folder for managers and admins. On a card bought without an account, the creator reviews set aside notes through their manage link.
The limits are clear
AI can miss a note or flag one wrongly. If the check is unavailable, writing still works.
Check the data policy
Notes are sent to TypeSafe for the check. Names and card access codes are left out of that request.
Read the privacy notice ↗From an occasion to a card
Give them
everyone’s words.
- 01
Create the card
Pick a cover, name the recipient and choose when it opens. You can buy one card without a company account.
- 02
Share the writing link
Colleagues contribute in a browser. Each person writes and signs their own message.
- 03
They open it on the day
The messages arrive together in one card. The recipient reads it on their phone.
For repeated birthdays, work anniversaries, welcomes and leaving days, use a company account with Slack and BambooHR.
