Pragli - Virtual office for remote teams with click to talk & avatars

Hey ProductHunt! I'm Vivek, a co-founder of Pragli. Doug and I started working on Pragli in late 2018. Our last company had been acquired, and we were working at the acquiring company remotely. We loved remote work, but we had two major issues with it: loneliness and communication friction. Pragli is our answer to these issues, helping teams build closeness and communicate faster. 🙌 Build a virtual office with adorable live avatars ⚡ Jump into conversations with one-click 💎 Crystal-clear audio, video, screen share 🛠️ Spotify, Calendar, Slack integrations 🔗 Support for guests to join a room from the browser We want to be as generous as possible during COVID-19. We've been free in open beta, but frankly, our bills have been getting substantial. As a result, we have raised a pre-seed round of funding. This will enable us to be free until June 1 and then offer a free tier of pricing indefinitely beyond then. As a gift to the Product Hunt community, save the discount code PH10 to get a 10% discount once we introduce pricing. Try Pragli out with your team, and then let us know what you think. We’re here to receive feedback and answer questions. Best, Vivek

Although it might be distracting and off-brand for what you're building, you could consider using Facemoji Kit to allow people to create even more detailed/wild avatars, @vivek_nair. 😄 cc @robinraszka

Awesome idea - will be interesting to see how popular this becomes These low-detail avatars seem like a great way to indicate that you're around, without having to be on camera all day.

We use Pragli daily @hihello and find that it's becoming an invaluable tool for remote work. For personal life, my friends and I are hosting a murder mystery party in Pragli to make the most of COVID-19 quarantining; visiting and chatting in different rooms are essential to solving the mystery. Check out Pragli if you haven't already because you'll certainly love it!

Love this! Congrats team. We are thinking about using to host a virtual dating game! What's the maximum amount of members who join a single channel?

We love using it but one showstopper for a few of our guys is the missing iOS app. They'd love to have it run on an iPad. Do you have iOS on the horizon?

I came across Pragli a few months ago and I loved the idea. Full disclosure we are building an end to end platform for remote business operations professionals so a virtual office functionality was one of the ideas we seriously looked into. Pragli is a good way of bringing something like that to life.

We used Pragli to give our fully remote team a virtual office where we could see each other’s availability and have an easy way to talk with each other. To see that somebody is behind his desk or is currently in a meeting is a useful feature too! Also they are swift in responding and good in communication!

Our startup moved to WFH on March 12th and after a few days of frustration with other services we gave Pragli a shot. It definitely eased our transition, is super easy to use which is always a plus, and we haven't looked back since. Only complaint is that I can't make my avatar look more like Joe Exotic - it's close though.

Pragli is a great platform for remote team communication. We started using it yesterday. Cheers and all the best.

Pragli is an awesome product. Huge kudos to Vivek and team!

I use Pragli in our teams, it is easy to use for everyone and discreet. Perfect tool for maintaining social link in teams working remotely. Thank you and congrats to the co-founders !

Congrats on the launch! Love the use of avatars. Personally, I'm not a fan of leaving my camera ON all the time, for both perf and privacy reasons, so the avatars are super helpful. Your blog is great too, especially the uhaul stunt.

Congrats guys! The concept is super great, and I'm looking forward to this progressing as it gains steam. As of right now, I think it's lacking in the user experience design aspect. There are some strange interactions like everyone being able to boot people, the sign out button being one of the largest buttons in the UI, and the text chat button being far less prominent than the support chat button. With a good deep dive into some UI and UX design, I think this could be a gold standard for virtual office collaboration. Looking forward to the future! 👍🏻

Pragli has helped me and my team to keep the benefits of working with a team in real time the same way or better than when in the office. The tool has not only improved our productivity, but has created greater collaboration synergy between the team members.

We just started using Pragli and love it already! It's going to make building a company in this global time of remote work that much more successful and also delightful.

One of the smartest social products I’ve seen lately. The team put tons of care into recreating offline signals to cue when not to interrupt someone. Would love to see a strong integration with Asana or other task managers so you could show what task you’re working on. Collaborative screensharing where everyone has a cursor like with Screen would be good. Calendar optimization or ways to find the next time a few people are simultaneously free would be great.

Using this since October last year and it's really a great tool for more productivity in a remote team. In the last month there was some problem with the CPU load after some time, but it's getting better with each release.

Excelente Producto, reune grandes funcionalidades. Tiene un gran potencial. Necesitamso la app Movil

This looks really cool and I love the avatars! When is the mobile app version coming out?
