CrankWheel comes from a desire to make phone calls a lot more effective. My co-founder @gilsicrankwheel is an old-school salesperson and has driven something like a million miles just to show customers something visually, and we figured there has to be a better way. We envisioned CrankWheel as a screen sharing (or most often, browser tab sharing) tool that would be easy enough to add visual sharing in the middle of a phone call. We also wanted it to be super enterprise friendly, offering white labeling, audit logging, and more. Among things I worked at while I was at Google were WebRTC and things related to the Chrome Extensions platform, and we figured these were platform bits that could really help make such a service. At the same time, it was clear that WebRTC wouldn't be ubiquitous enough for many, many years to use only that as a platform for a screen sharing service that we wanted to make work every single time, on all browsers and devices, without requiring a download. More about our architecture from a recent talk:

Another thing we wanted to fix w.r.t. screen sharing is the infamous "do you see the next slide yet" or "do you see X yet" question. To that end we added a "preview pane" where you can see exactly what your viewer(s) see and when. You can see a demo of it in the video above. We're one of the startups in the small but vibrant Icelandic startup community, and one of very few that have posted here on Product Hunt. Shout out to our Icelandic peeps!! We have a completely free plan for individual use, it offers unlimited one-to-one screen sharing. Our Unlimited and Enterprise plans offer co-branding, unlimited multi-viewer screen sharing, white labelling, audit logging and more. Click through for a special discount for Product Hunters!
