Hey Hunters! 👋 Excited to be launching our new project - Introducing Colloq (cuh-low-k)! --What's the Colloq story?--- Sitting through one long meeting after another in our past roles, we were inspired to build a tool to improve how business decisions were made and specifically how they could better be made offline / async. We spent months speaking with teams and heard that decision-making speed and quality is a universal bottleneck. For a lot of hybrid teams it’s done through a combo of excessive meetings and chaotic google docs / slack channels - a combo which inevitably ends with unclear ownership, lost info, and delays. We love GitHub and wanted to bring a version of pull requests and the git log to help with business decisions - On Colloq you create a structured decision proposal, tag stakeholders / assign roles, gather feedback, and log a source of truth. We're launching a stand-alone web platform today but have a lot on the horizon - We’ll be adding a Slack integration next and have updates planned incorporating automations, AI use cases, templates, analytics, and more. --Who is Colloq for?-- Colloq is for individuals and teams of all sizes that need to make and document decisions. We’ve seen that decision-making challenges intensify as teams grow so we think that larger (especially hybrid/remote) teams will get the most value out of Colloq. While building our MVP we collaborated with folks in these roles: - Team leads who want to reduce ineffective meetings and increase productivity & knowledge sharing - Chiefs of staff who want to improve the quality and speed of collaboration / engagement with stakeholders - CEOs who want to better delegate while maintaining visibility into decision-making across the company - Boards who want to upgrade their decision making processes and documentation --Our Goal-- Our goal with this launch is to get as much feedback from the community as possible. We are a bootstrapped team of 2 so any feedback from beta users is incredibly important for us. We’d love for you to create an account and test a real decision with your team. Our beta is free and sign up takes 30 seconds – app.colloq.org

💡 Bright idea

I've signed up and tried. Looks promising. Are there any chat for teams in the app?

@ayauho Hey Alex, that's something we've discussed internally and a great suggestion. It's not in our beta version yet.

💡 Bright idea

@vyakovlev You could have some super fast decisions that don't need feedback, just like some yes/no question

@diego_akel Yep that's a great point - We are definitely envisioning different decision templates and formats. For the simple Yes/No questions you can do that already in the MVP simply by creating two options. Also feedback is an optional field right now and stakeholders are only required to vote! Thanks again for checking it out and for the suggestion!
