Swipes Workspace - One place for team's goals, notes, files and communication

Swipes Workspace brings the pieces of team's work in one place. It's a beautiful app to help teams Plan projects, Discuss ideas and Take action on the priorities. It's that simple. No more 10s of apps to dig in, hundreds of open browser tabs and crazy stream of notifications to react on. Just the Workspace.

Hi hunters, thanks for having us here! We're super excited to show you what we've been working on for the past 2 years. It's the Workspace - single place to work from with your team. It has built-in communication, notes, plans, and goals of who does what and where are we at. The team and me created this product because as a small company in a growth phase, we were getting massively frustrated by the chaos of work. We were trying to maintain a healthy clear plan of what's going on and often sat in hours-long meetings just to get aligned. We jumped on each and every tool that will help us navigate through assets, people, responsibilities so we had: - Asana, but some didn't like it so they had Trello - We also had Dropbox, but some stuff were stuck in Google Drive because Google Docs was better for online collaboration - We had Evernote for notes, but Paper was sleeker and the designers liked it better - We had Slack with tons of channels, files, and messages buried there because it was faster to get feedback on your work via chat. - And tens of other apps for this & that; You get me! It was a crippling experience of a constant frustration, getting delayed on important things, blaming each other for the misunderstandings and feeling confused about the work. It was impossible to find anything or just catch up on all the places. At one moment, we said that's enough. No more patchwork of tens of tools, integrating bots and gosh what not to stay on top of things. As toolmakers ourselves ( Swipes to-do app, 1m+ users, Webby Award Nominee, featured #1 app on Mac App Store) we set out to create a new integrated experience of teamwork where ideas are flowing, plans are clear and the information is always at your fingertips. Thus, we brought together a bunch of tools that people need most of their time when working: project and task management, note-taking, file storage, communication. We are SUPER excited to show you our product today and bring it in the hands of teams, that suffered from similar to our pains. The team and me are here the whole day to answer any question you may have and jump on discussions, so hit us up. :)

Really happy you like it Burak. You'd love the stack behind it as well ;) We'll be open-sourcing a few of the cool things we've made along the way. Can't wait to show you.
Yana Tornoe
Thank you so much, Burak! It's a hard balance to hit. That's the 6 iteration of the workspace because we wanted to hit that exact sweet spot - easy to use, powerful at core.
Tihomir Valkanov
Thank you so much Burak! I'm really happy that you loved it :)))) And I am happy that the product is perceived in the way we want to - as clean but powerful!

I beta tested Swipes Workspace. The app went through several iterations, each one better than the last. The customer support from Team Swipes is amazing and they are constantly updating their app.

Pros:

Clean lines, simple but also super full-featured, constant updates, graphics make accomplishing tasks rewarding, and so much more!

Cons:

I know it's coming, but I can't wait to be able to drag n drop to reorder my Take Action items :)

Yana Tornoe
THANK you, Steven! The drag & drop will come and we'll rework the whole section to make it more Swipes personal experience like. :)
Kasper Pihl Tornoe
Steve you are the best! Really appreciate how engaged you always are. Hope the workspace can make the school a better place!
Steve Elder
I forgot to mention something. One of the most beautiful aspects of Swipes Workspace is that it can be used just as easily and usefully as a stand-alone productivity tool as it can as a team productivity/communication tool. And no matter how hard I try, I just can't stop watching that video! :)
Tihomir Valkanov
Thank you Steve! I'm really happy that you are having such a great experience with us :)))
Vasil Enchev

@uffou Thank you Uffo! We took our time to "perfect every little details" :)
