Hey Product Hunt👋 We’re Flo & Norbert, creators of crewmap. Super excited to be launching here, today! We made crewmap to help people build relationships at work by finding common ground with their colleagues. In remote companies, it can be super tricky to get to know your coworkers, and we’ve both felt occasional pangs of loneliness or isolation in our own jobs. We realised that once you figure out you’ve got something in common with a coworker, be it a hobby or something else, it’s way easier to say hello & start building those friendships🤝 We hope that crewmap will give employees the opportunity to get closer to their coworkers. From the HR-side, we’ve built crewmap to give you the tools to bring your teams together. 🏡 Help new starters find their feet & form connections with their team. 🏃 From poker nights to 6 am run club, build communities around shared interests. ⏱️ Onboard yourself & your team in less than 90 seconds. 🎁 Work anniversary? Birthdays? Get your colleagues something they’ll love. Thanks for dropping by! We’re on a mission to help everyone find a best friend at work, and we’d love to hear what you think. We offer a 100%, no-questions-asked refund if you’re unhappy for any reasons. Cheers! Norbert & Flo

@mind_arts Hi Ernest, yes definitely share - we'll gladly support during onboarding and use. Early customers can also influence the roadmap 😉 Well have planned to integrate with Slack as well as MS Teams in the near future.

This looks amazing. 🤩 Congrats on the launch! I'm intrigued to see what sort of impact this has on improving coworker relationships. Curious to hear what kind of interesting features you plan to add later on?

@saasdesigner Hi Ben, lots of work in the pipeline. First and foremost the integration with existing tools. Mostly MS Teams and Slack, also calendars and maybe a voting feature. Anything you'd like to see?
Brian Swartz
Love the spirit of this - especially for remote / hybrid teams! Is there a tool specifically for onboarding new employees, and them being able to connect with existing pods / groups / activities within the company? Onboarding new people in remote and having them quickly find a few friends at work is really valuable if it works!

@brian_swartz crewmap is meant to be integrated into the pre/onboarding flow of new hires - the explicit idea is that new hires (and existing employees) know a bit about each other from day one. HR has full visibility into all the data and can facilitate introductions more easily.
Brian Swartz
@thehuethman nice - love it! Is that app then like Donut in trying to schedule the meet ups? I've always found that the schedule-from-slack flow with Donut feels clunkier than it should. Congrats on the launch - onboarding remote employees is a hot-button issue right now!!

@brian_swartz not yet - right now we take users through a survey and then aggregate the data for HR. THe can use insights to set up meetings, or on an aggregate level, plan company outings/team events based on actual interests. Slack and MS Teams integrations is to come soon.
Danah Makow
This is such a nice idea - coming from someone who works at a remote company. Is there an ideal company size most suited to crewmap? Are there any special tools for companies that are geographically distributed?
Norbert Hüthmayr

@danahm I would say it depends on the type of company. crewmap makes sense for larger teams (50+) where it gets naturally difficult to know all the other departments and the people therein. For remote first company where everyone is at home/different places, it can make a lot of sense for teams as small as 15 people. An added value is that crewmap can be integrated into the pre/onboarding process for new hires as well. All you need is a corporate email address.

I’ve been lucky enough to try this out firsthand and having worked in several companies (large and small) can massively see the benefit in learning a bit more about your colleagues, especially for new hires! Good luck with this guys!

@michael_heap cheers Mike! You've been a massive help
Reha Santiago
💡 Bright idea
congrats on the launch, the idea is amazing. have you ever considered building something that can be integrated with the communication platforms that companies use for eg a slack bot for slack
Flo Schirmer
Maker
@reha_santiago Absolutely! That's the next step for us - fully plugging into Slack, Teams, etc. Thanks for the suggestion Reha
Reha Santiago
@floschirmer that's great. I've worked with few of these integrations. let me know if you need help with these.

@bella_chen2020 we agree! Workplace loneliness/lack of engagement is such a challenge for employers/employees and hopefully this moves the needle to getting people to feel more connected at work

Congrats on the launch! Love the value added for both the employees and the employer. Wish I had this when launching/joining previous companies

@vincent_moulton Yes, this is what we figured too. crewmap.co is really an attempt to bring together people from different offices/hubs or even countries.
Vincent Moulton
this excites me. When I came from corporate 9-5 I always had to make an effort to connect with others and build relations, as we all do. This isn't so easy for some yet invaluable for a company building a healthy enjoyable work environment. EVEN better with remote work!! HUGE value here!! Can't wait to jump on
