I‘ve been following this team for a pretty long time. They‘ve built and shipped insanely good products in previous startups and big tech companies with an extremely high bar for design and experience. I‘d highly recommend keeping an eye out for these guys. Thumbs up!!! Question: With everything shifting more and more towards remote work, I‘ve been wondering which social experiences can or should be digitized, how that can be done, what needs to happen in person and how your product (and future products) fit on that spectrum? I‘m sure you guys spent a hell of a lot of time on these topics.

@tobias_eichenwald Thanks a lot for the praise, Tobias! And that's a very good question! Here at Frond, we don't think that time spent in person can be truly replaced by software alone. But we do believe that we can get a lot closer to the feeling we used to have when we were in the same room. With Zoom and Slack, we've gotten pretty far to replace in-person meetings. But it's often the subtle moments between meetings, the ones that don't have an agenda, that are helping us to build empathy and trust for our teammates. And this is what we feel still needs a little more attention, which is going to be our focus at Frond!

Hi everyone! 👋 This is Jan from the Frond team. Having founded my first company remotely 10 years ago, it's been clear to me that the future of work is remote. But I never imagined that the shift would happen so suddenly; thrusting teams into an unknown world without a playbook for building trust and culture. That's why we started Frond. We're building tools that help remote teams cultivate the trust they need, even when they can't be in the same room. Today we're super excited to release our first tool: Frond Hello – a warm welcome for new hires. With Hello we're taking the first step in that journey with a solution to a problem we felt as our team was growing: recreating the excitement of a first day when a teammate joins remotely. Hello is built as a single page that combines personalized welcome videos from the team, with links to everything they need to hit the ground running. So you can collect all the account logins and core teams docs, add personal notes that give them the lay of the land, and wrap the whole package in personal videos from their new teammates that can jump-start those relationships. We've also found that Hello is a great way to celebrate special moments along the way, so we've added templates for birthdays, celebrating big achievements, and even recruiting. You can build your own templates with our editor — we can't wait to see how your team puts Hello to use! We're building Frond from a series of experiments. Each will be a different way to help teams cultivate the trust that fuels remote culture. Stay tuned, because we have a lot more coming soon!

The Pitch

I'm biased as a friend of the company and founders, but it's kind of inconceivable how many companies still practice active "non-boarding". Hello is a simple step to make your new colleagues feel welcome and part of the team, and the larger vision for Frond is exciting in a remote first world. Go @jans, @mblackshaw, @nikoleo and team!

A great product that comes at the right time. We scaled our company from less than 10 people all the way to 70 in under a year, globally, and during the multitude of lockdowns. Having a 'people-first' onboarding process ensured our newbies started off on the right foot and could contribute to our culture from day-0

Love the experiment Hello Frond! Very interesting and clever way to build trust in teams that don't see each other physically that often. Also really love the UX!
