Mood Tracking

Daily emoji-based mood logs per team member, aggregated into anonymized analytics that surface team wellbeing trends and burnout signals.

Mood Tracking lets team members log a daily mood in one tap and gives managers an anonymized, aggregated view of team wellbeing with a 30 day trend.

How it works

Each team member sees a daily check-in prompt on the TARO dashboard with five mood levels: Great, Good, Okay, Low, and Rough. One tap logs the mood, and an optional free-text note can add context. Each emoji maps to a numeric score (Rough 1 to Great 5), and the daily team score is the mean of all logged scores. Individuals see a personal 30 day rolling trend. Managers and org admins see only anonymized aggregate distributions and trend lines. Burnout signals fire automatically into the Risk Alerts Dashboard when aggregate mood stays low for a sustained period.

Key capabilities

  • Five mood levels logged with a single tap, plus an optional per-entry note.
  • Personal 30 day rolling trend visible only to the individual, and to a direct manager only with explicit opt-in.
  • Anonymized aggregate distribution and 30 day average trend for managers and org admins.
  • Burnout signal that fires a Monitor severity alert when the daily team average falls below 2.5 out of 5 for three or more consecutive days, or when 40% or more of loggers report Low or Rough on the same day; both thresholds are configurable.
  • 7 day rolling average used as the primary burnout signal, alongside a 30 day moving average.
  • Missing entries excluded from calculations rather than treated as a default value.
  • Visible participation rate, with admins unable to see who did or did not log.
  • Minimum group size protection: aggregate views require at least 5 active loggers or the chart is blurred.
  • Opt-in or opt-out modes configurable per workspace; individual opt-out available in both modes.

Tips

Managers cannot retrieve individual mood entries; the analytics API returns only aggregated, anonymized data. Communicate this privacy model to the team before enabling tracking so participation stays voluntary and honest.
