# What is Nudj?

> Discover how Nudj transforms customer engagement through gamification and community building

Nudj is a **gamified engagement platform** that turns customers into advocates through challenges, rewards, and community. In the words of Mark Twain, "The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read"—and the brand that doesn't engage users has no advantage over those that do.
