Code Story - Less Meetings, More Work Done

Less Meetings, More Work Done

By Code Story • Issue #102 • View online

Today’s workplace tools favor urgency over thoughtfulness. Distributed teams are now the norm, but our tools haven’t caught up with this new normal. Employees are burned out, and digitally exhausted. Constant notifications interrupt our flow, back-to-back live meetings drain our energy, and live messaging apps expect us to be “always on.”

In 2021 alone, instant messaging increased by almost 50% per person, including after hours messaging, and 41% of employees reported considering leaving their jobs within a year.

Simply put- the workplace collaboration tools we currently use, all-day, every day, are not designed for remote work, and employees and companies are paying the price. It’s time for new tools that make remote teams collaboration easy, effective, and joyful, and we’re proud to be building a solution that will enable great teams to do their best work.

It’s time for Bubbles.

Collaborate using screen, video and audio messages

We believe a big part of the collaboration happens when people share thoughtful, and precise feedback. In addition to text, video and screenshare commenting capabilities, bubbles comments allow users to give pixel-level feedback, using timestamps, screen annotation. Since Bubble’s is async-first, and organized around conversations, teammates can contribute on their own time and provide the right, thoughtful feedback.

Take Back Your Time

How many times have you tried to relay feedback or an idea to someone over text, whether email, Slack, or Google Doc comments, and it just didn’t land. You try and try again, until you give up and say “let’s find time to jump on a call and I’ll explain what I’m talking about”. Bubbles makes asynchronous collaboration so effective that it reduces wasted back-and-forths and live meetings. Individuals and teams can own their schedule and gain more flexibility to do deep work.
