  • Velt
    Velt (w2022)Active • 15 employees • San Francisco, CA, USA
    Our mission is to make the web more collaborative. We're not just making collaboration faster—we're crafting it to be the best. Today we’re all using online platforms more than ever before - building, researching, learning, connecting etc. And we're not doing it alone. We're doing it together with other people and machines, turning the internet into the world's biggest team. Yet, the web was built for solo voyages. We saw a shift when platforms like Figma and Google Docs brought a multiplayer approach, breaking down walls and inspiring seamless teamwork. At Velt, we're taking it further. We're on a mission to infuse the magic of collaboration into the fabric of the web—one app at a time. We aim to erase the lines between online and offline co-working, crafting an environment where distance is irrelevant, and 'flow' is the norm. Right now, more than half of work hours are spent on coordination and communication—less on creating. With Velt, we're setting out to reverse these figures, reducing time spent on logistical issues by over 90%. Imagine what we can create when we spend less time talking about work and more time doing it! We're building a better web—a web for us, for our team, for everyone. Join us, and let's accelerate the future of web together 🚀 Our Products: - Velt Collaboration SDK (https://velt.dev/): JS SDK to add powerful collaboration experiences to your own product for your end-users. This helps you ship such experiences ridiculously fast, increase user growth and engagement. - Superflow (https://usesuperflow.com/): JS plugin to enable product, marketing and design teams to comment and collaborate directly on their websites. This helps them iterate and ship their products 10x faster. We’re a team of ex-Googlers. We've launched products like Augmented Reality in Google Search & Maps. Come build a better web with us 🚀

    LinkGrep (w2023)Active • 2 employees • San Francisco, CA, USA
    Modern teams work in the browser. But browsers weren't built for teams 😔. This leads to a bunch of problems like: - Knowledge/info that is hard to find (links that get lost, documentation that gets, buried, silos, etc) - Poor collaboration - Inefficient workflows LinkGrep is an AI browser copilot that solves those problems by making your browser team friendly. Specifically we help teams: 1. 🔗 Keep track of links, documents, and more automatically. With LinkGrep you'll never have to manually add or save a link. 2. 🔍 Find information that matters. LinkGrep connects with your existing tools like Notion and Slack and will automatically suggest relevant information to you as your browse (we have semantic search that you can fallback on). Demo: https://youtu.be/jwcPGDRy4oQ 3. 👥 Collaborate better. LinkGrep lets you leave notes and comments directly on web pages — you won't ever have to copy paste a link into Slack ever again. 4. 🤖 Automate team actions like opening up the right links before a meeting. Never disrupt a meeting to send a link again. Demo: https://youtu.be/an3VKpAWft0

  • OrgOrg
    OrgOrg (s2024)Active • 2 employees • Los Altos, CA, USA
    OrgOrg is a suite of apps that keeps teams productive and healthy regardless of the size of your organization. Founded by the creator of Zenter (YC 07, acquired by Google and became Google Slides), OrgOrg is designed to be a natural extension of Google Workspace Apps to help run organizations collaborate better leading to higher productivity. Today the suite includes apps like: • Go links: Go links allows anyone in the org to easily name any link so team members can jump directly to the information that matters most: go/sales, go/production, go/anything-you-want. • Profiles with Personality: OrgOrg profiles are as insightful as they are delightful. They not only show you the expected org chart data, but also highlight accomplishments, how you like to work, and who you are as a person. • Goal tracking: Track, share, and collaborate on "big rock" goals on the cadence that makes sense for your team from daily to annually. • Branded New Tab: Keep the team focused the next major milestone, broadcast announcements, and keep important links top of mind every time a new browser tab is opened. • All Hands Q&A: Crowdsource questions, anonymously if desired, for large team meetings to make sure everyone's voice is heard, and the most top of mind questions are answered and recorded. • Smart Groups: Create rules based groups of people and use them to make sure the right people are in the right conversations and have the right access. For example, anyone with the title of "Software Engineer" should be in the #eng slack channel and eng@ google group. • On-call: Schedule smart rotations that take into account balancing the load and using signals from calendar schedules to make sure you don't waste time figuring out who can cover what in a fair way. Easily page the on-call from slack, API, or OrgOrg directly. • And more... All the tools you need so you can spend more time focusing on your core business, and less time focusing on the complexity that comes from running an organization.

WorkLife helps you reclaim that time by helping you and your team adopt good meeting habits - create agendas, stay on track during the meeting, and ensure next steps get done afterwards. Most people spend the majority of their waking hours at work, and way too many of those hours in unproductive meetings. Your work life is a big portion of your life -- and the happier and more productive you are at work, the more fulfilled and energized you are in your life. Better Work = Better Life.
