Congrats @pattyjburns. Looks great!

@jmeenan 🙏 Also appreciate your early product feedback!!
Nichole Elizabeth DeMerè (Eithiriel)
Awesome! 🥰 It could be great for distributed teams looking to bring back the water-cooler chat.
Patrick Burns
@nikkielizdemere yes! Those informal interactions we have all day long in the office are needed in the distributed context, now more than ever! As we say, "small talk is big talk" in the work place :)
Nouras Haddad
Great way to stay in touch with your remote team. Lower friction than scheduling a call, faster than typing up a long Slack message.
Patrick Burns
@nouras_haddad exactly, just like we interact in person 🎯

Our team at Melrose started using Commons in early March and we're big fans of the platform. We really admire the work the team is doing to enhance the way teams communicate remotely. The passion and care is palpable!
Patrick Burns
@melrose_pr thank you 🙏!! Your early product feedback was sooooooo helpful!
Kuami Aba
can you share a bit more about the team?
Patrick Burns
@kuami_aba sure! The founding team is Nazan Kurt, Aziz Kurt, and me. We came together in May 2020 and quickly realized we wanted to start a company together given our shared background and complementary skill sets. Aziz and I worked together on stories at Snap, and formed a friendship when, walking back from lunch, we realized they had a shared interest in Turkish music! Nazan and Aziz met at college and worked together at Microsoft for 10+ years.

Commons makes remote work easier. I normally spend a lot of time in Zoom. This app takes away some of that friction and makes informal collaboration a bit easier. Recommend for managers and product/tech leads who sit and suffer through Zoom meetings all day!
Patrick Burns
@matthew_hessing Exactly! No more #Zoomfatigue! Many of our customers are team managers who say that Commons helps the team move faster AND stay in sync 🥳
Pedro Martinez
We have being using Commons for over 2 months now, we expect for it to become one of the main tools we'll use to comunicate as we stay in Home Office. Our company already decided to stay in Home Office permanently.

@pedro_martinez2 Thanks, Pedro! You and your team's product feedback has been so nuanced and helpful. So glad we help your team communicate more efficiently and naturally 🥁
Nazan Kurt
@pedro_martinez2 Pedro, feature requests from your team are next in the pipeline! Thank you for your insightful feedback and your patience while we implement them! 🙏

Great job Patrick and team! Why audio-first?
Patrick Burns
@chinolex_ Good Q. We support video as well, but in an earlier version of the product we realized that many conversations would start with video off. We’re hyper focused on speed, so we thought - maybe we can go faster by just having audio only as the default. So we kept it. And it’s indeed faster--but also more informal!
