4 Companies with a 4 Day Week ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Before we get to the companies...

Did you know:

It takes ~10 hours to do what took 40 hours in 1950 (on average)

Productivity has more than 4x'd in the last 70 years (and continues to do so) - mostly due to technological advances.

For example, things we didn't have in 1950:

  • Instant messaging apps e.g. Slack, Zoom
  • Collaborative computing tools e.g. Google Docs
  • Automation e.g. Zapier
  • AI tools e.g. ChatGPT, Cursor etc
  • Oh, and ye... the personal computer ๐Ÿ˜‡

We now work 4-5 times faster yet the workweek is still roughly the same length...

Something doesn't make sense here - wasn't technology meant to give us time back?!

Thankfully, the companies below are pushing to change the status quo ๐Ÿ’ช


In other news...

The website got attacked by bots last month... they were spamming the site so hard that I had to temporarily disable the contact form ๐Ÿ˜ญ

It's ironic timing as well as this week's sponsor is designed to mitigate exactly this ๐Ÿ˜…

So a special thanks to Fingerprint for supporting this newsletter - Fingerprint helps websites detect bots and other threats to prevent attacks in real time ๐Ÿฆพ

Start detecting sophisticated bots now...
