Hello Product Hunt 👋
I’m Megan, one of 3 cofounders and CEO of Ourspace. Today we’re launching our product and onboarding users for the very first time 😱 It’s crazy how exciting and nerve-wracking it is to really put your work out there!
We’re building Ourspace to make re-orgs and team changes less painful for everyone. As cofounders, we’ve lived this problem first-hand, both as individual contributors getting shoved around companies (seemingly without any good reason 🙄), and then as leaders trying our best to never make our teams feel that way - all the while solving an endless puzzle of people, products, and priorities 🧩
Who Ourspace serves—Long-term we’re looking to serve all organizations where work happens in teams. Early customer discovery has led us to hypothesize that Ourspace will be a good fit for companies with 100+ people (although please tell us if you experience this at a smaller size!)
With Ourspace, leaders and teammates get:
👉 Scenario playgrounds to weigh out team design options
👉 An easy-to-navigate org overview
👉 Visual, contextual employee journeys
👉 Thoughtfully designed team pages with people and business context
👉 A Slack integration to seamlessly update team changes
We’re currently in beta with a waitlist BUT we’re onboarding our first 20 companies today with priority for those who sign up via Product Hunt. We’re so grateful for your input and support 🙏🏾 🙏🏼
TLDR: If your people, products, and priorities are in a constant state of flux, we don’t just want to build for you, we want to build with you. Help us learn how we can do that by checking out Ourspace, and sharing your feedback with us!
Massive thanks to @kevin for hunting us and to our community of supporters for helping us to get today 🧡

@kevin@megan_murphy Finally! I have spent many years feeling the impact of poorly arranged people puzzles and am happy to know that help is on the way. Just signed up!
Report
@megan_murphy I was actually just talking to a coworker about how I wish we could improve this in our own org. Can’t wait to see how you’ll help teams manage change (this is important now more than ever). Good luck with the launch!!
@askthedata thanks so much for signing up! Can't wait to learn more from you about how you've felt this impact play out - and hope Ourspace can play a role in not having that happen anymore!
@jakerozin totally agree! It feels like every company is going through at least team shuffles, if not re-orgs or worse right now :( Hope we can be a good fit for you and your team!
I've been so impressed by the fast start Ourspace has had. This seems like a much needed solution built on a clear vision and strong UX. Best of luck with your launch on PH!
@janafreja thanks for your kind words! We hope to keep delivering a strong UX and build a product that is not only useful but also fun and delightful to use!
Thanks for the support @craig_hendry! Unfortunately, many teams are having to navigate the economic challenges right now, and we hope we can support them through it.

As a cybersecurity professional, I can see the value in a product like Ourspace. This makes tracking who needs permissions to resources very simple. As employees change roles within a company, granting access to new resources becomes a priority, but what often gets overlooked is what resources they no longer require access to. I can see this tool being used to solve that problem.
@michael_radzicki Thank you for bringing this different perspective to light! You're absolutely right, our change log will make it easier to track these changes, and not only make sure the right people are working on the right problems, but also that they have the right access to the appropriate tools and permissions. We'd love to hear more about how you think this should be best captured for this use case 👂🏼
This goes to show it always pays to have a cybersecurity professional on your side 🙌
@michael_radzicki Thanks for flagging this important use case! Our changelog could be a good workaround for this, but we’d need to capture more feedback to solve fully 🙏🏻
@michael_radzicki - one of our founding team @txels, is a real strong advocate for this use case. He has some fantastic ideas about how we can build Ourspace in this direction in the future.
Report
@txels@markvertra I would love to hear his ideas and provide feedback if desired.
@markvertra@michael_radzicki hey Michael yes definitely this is a use case that is dear to my heart. Having worked on enablements/devx teams before, making attempts to automate account creation and auditing in various platforms, I see a lot of future potential in ourspace helping in that regard.
I like that you mention "what often gets overlooked is what resources they no longer require access to". That is so true, because for the onboarding use case there is always one potentially annoyed person nudging to get access - which doesn't happen when offboarding ;)
There are various ways to approach how ourspace could help there, from the more passive (an API that you can query from your own custom tools) to more active (webhooks / events that we publish in a way that may be consumed by external systems, slack notifications that may be consumed by other apps...), to built-in integrations (with well-known tools, or extensible by allowing custom integration scripts etc.).
I would be interested in knowing what tools you are currently using to solve this problem, and what type of integrations with ourspace would make sense for you.

Been dreaming of a solution to this problem for a long time. Congratulations for the launch!
