Community & Gamification
TATER includes a built-in community and gamification system designed to keep compliance teams engaged and motivated. Earn XP, unlock achievements, climb leaderboards, and customize your profile — all while doing real compliance work.
Community Dashboard
Access the community hub by clicking Community → Community in the left navigation. The dashboard shows:
- Your current level and XP progress bar
- Recent achievements you've unlocked
- A mini-leaderboard showing top team members
- Your org's level and achievement count
- Quick links to your profile, full achievements list, and leaderboard
My Profile
Access via Community → My Profile.
Your profile is your identity within TATER. Configure:
- Nickname — A unique display name (2–32 characters). Must be unique within your organization. Co-workers see "nickname (Real Name)" format; people outside your org see only the nickname.
- Avatar — Upload a photo (JPG, PNG, or GIF, max ~150KB) or click 🎲 Random to generate a colorful icon avatar.
- Bio — A short description (max 500 characters) visible to co-workers.
- Profile Color — Pick an accent color for your avatar and profile card.
Click Save Profile to apply changes. Saving your profile for the first time unlocks the "Named" achievement.

- Remediate promptly — Triggering remediation scripts awards XP for each finding fixed.
- Build your policy library — Creating policy documents is one of the highest per-action XP earners.
- Export evidence — Generating evidence export packages (ZIP with all controls, overrides, and comments) awards 25 XP.
- Use the AI Analyst — Starting an AI Analyst session awards XP per conversation.
- Complete your profile — Set a nickname and avatar to unlock the "Named" and "Profile Complete" achievements.
