Standup bots

It's 2024. Why are we still torturing teams with 10AM "How's it going?" rituals? Well, no more! Our AI never sleeps, runs standups on auto-pilot 24/7, and serves up juicy summaries whenever you need them! 🤯

Hey Hunters 👋 After 4 years as a PM, I realised something was broken in how teams track progress. Traditional standup / project management tools like Jira or Linear are great for creating story logs, but unfortunately none of these tools truly allowed you to get answers to really important questions. I got annoyed because I couldn't ask questions like "what did our front-end team work on last week" or "how much of our sales target did we actually achieve in Q4 of this year?" (and more). Which is why I decided to create HowsThisGoing: The AI-powered standup tool that does more than run meetings—it answers your questions. Want to know how fast your team is moving? Just ask. Curious about an engineer's key projects? Simply type a question in Slack. The goal initially was a standup bot with natural language superpowers but I was like... why not go a step further? Why not give it the power to access all your sources of truth? What if the bot could go beyond standups, what if it could become an actual project manager that knows everything about everything you're interested in? Hence, I introduced 🚀 INTEGRATIONS! This game-changing feature allows you to connect to your favorite tools like Github, Linear, Hubspot, Notion etc. and get summaries + actually ask questions about how things are going. Excited to launch this to the PH community! hoping this stops us from annoying teammates with questions our bot can answer 😜 Stop tracking. Start truly understanding. 🖖 cheers!

Congrats on the launch, @kanishkdan. If would be nice if the bot has context from previous updates. For example, something like, "Kanishk, yesterday you planned to work on X, Y, Z - how's it going today?" That would make the updates feel more personal and connected.

@ashitvora That's a great suggestion! right now the bot is proactive but the plan is to make it reactive, such that it asks question relevant to the person's answers. Thanks again! 🖖

Ooo love this - I'm a sucker for a good workflow, and the automated PM bit seems useful for smaller teams where you've got a bit going on all over the place (like us 😅). Plus analytics?? Win. Following along and can't wait to try it out!

I like the summaries less analytical tone! What about google analytics 4 integration? Would be fun to read user metrics with a bit of humour.

@sentry_co Thanks Andre! GA integration sounds like a great idea, I'll add it to the list :)

minimalist phone: reduce your screentime

It looks like something that makes the workflow more "tidy". I do not like "separated questions" and when everything is scattered into 1000 threads where I get lost. Have a good feeling from this tool as it summarises that important highlights. Good luck, Kanishk.

Congrats @kanishkdan for the launch! I loved this tool since the first time I saw the demo. There's a special thing about morning stand-ups with teammates but sometime there's no time or some colleagues are commuting and that's where I can see a huge potential for HTG. Good luck and keep up the good work 🔥😼

My team uses daily updates with the same format, but every member just texts it in this channel. It helps to be on the same page. This is important because we are all in different time zones and it is important to synchronize everyone. Not only the project manager needs to be aware of what was done yesterday and what the plans are for today, whose resourses are still needed. But really cool you trying to do it more effective! Good luck today!

@juliayugo Thanks a lot for the kind words! We do support multiple timezones, but 100% agree on the project manager understanding all around context and then taking actions based on that. Thanks for the wishes again :)
