Using the Laudio Outlook Add-In (Early Access)

Laudio's Outlook Add-in allows you to capture recognition, feedback, and follow-up actions without leaving your inbox. From any email, you can send a message to a team member, add a note to their profile, or copy an email directly into Laudio. The add-in requires approval from your health system's IT team and must be installed in Outlook before use.

Key Benefits

  • Capture recognition instantly by sending praise from an email directly to a team member's profile.

  • Keep leadership notes organized by adding observations and feedback without leaving Outlook.

  • Save important context by copying emails into Laudio for future reference and follow-up.
