Beyond virtual coffees: How to unlock the full power of RandomCoffee

Virtual coffee chats are a great starting point. They’re simple, lightweight, and an easy way to spark spontaneous human interaction, especially in hybrid and remote teams.

But here’s the truth: if you’re only using RandomCoffee to match people for virtual coffees, you’re missing out on everything else it can do.

RandomCoffee is not just a random matching tool. It’s a complete employee engagement software, one that powers long-term culture, connection, and inclusion. And to get the full value, it’s essential to go beyond the coffee.

You can start with Virtual Coffees…

Virtual coffees are great for getting started. They’re frictionless and feel organic. But if every interaction looks the same, people start to disengage.

According to Gallup, only 21% of employees feel strongly connected to their company’s culture, and that connection doesn’t come from small talk alone. It comes from intentional, varied, and meaningful moments designed to make people feel seen, heard, and valued.

… and then launch tailored programs to boost your workplace culture!

Tailored, timed and contextual programs can bring a lot to your employees’ experience.

• A new hire being welcomed during their first week.

• A junior employee connecting with a mentor across the org.

• A Pride Month pairing between an LGBTQIA+ employee and an ally.

• A candid chat with the CEO about leadership and change.

That’s where RandomCoffee shines as a people engagement tool and employee experience platform.

The right mix: rituals + programs = Culture that sticks

Our most successful clients use RandomCoffee as more than just a social connector. They use it as a company culture solution, a tool to create rituals that align with real goals.

They combine:

Always-on formats like onboarding programs, ERG networking, or cross-department meetups.

Time-based initiatives like Mental Health Awareness Month, Women’s Day, or Secret Santa.

Custom programs like mentoring software, cross-cultural exchanges, or gratitude circles.

This variety creates a rhythm, builds trust, and keeps things fresh and intentional.

RandomCoffee is built for more than random coffees!

We’re more than a coffee chat generator. We’re your partner in building a connective, engaged and inclusive workplace.

With RandomCoffee, you can:

• Launch structured programs to support mentorship, onboarding, or employee community building

• Create monthly initiatives to celebrate diversity, encourage feedback, or just spark joy

• Connect people across teams, roles, and regions using our smart employee matching algorithm
