Thanks for hunting Loop Team @chrismessina! Hi Hunters, we're super excited to officially unveil Loop Team on Product Hunt. Loop Team is the genesis of my previous experiences with a distributed team. My last company, @tempoai, had team members across the globe. After we had been acquired by Salesforce, I saw first-hand some of the struggles of remote work. Although Salesforce was a remote friendly company, many of my remote team members were having to fly to the office on a regular cadence to feel connected or rather “stay in the loop.” To foster the feeling of working side-by-side, our team built Loop Team. With Loop Team, we combine presence with instant communications into a virtual office experience. We know many virtual offices have emerged since the onset of COVID but our approach is unique. We have focused on what we call “Deep Presence,” what we believe is the operating system of remote work. Deep presence is about determining real user intent such as when someone wants to chat, or take a walk, or work in flow. Most communication products do not try to solve this resulting in frequent interruptions and notification fatigue. Even Slack and Zoom at best, show either manual or traffic light presence which simply doesn’t work. With Loop Team, we recognized this and today we’re unveiling our virtual office on Product Hunt.. We hope that in using Loop Team, notification fatigue goes down and timely ad-hoc communication goes up! A few Loop Team features: Automatic Status & AI ‘Focused Mode’ — Loop Team integrates 100s of apps amongst other signals to provide your team a view of what’s happening while reducing feelings of loneliness. Automatic Status, all user configurable, helps teammates know when one another is ‘really’ available (just like IRL) and we have a lot more coming. Communication & Collaboration — While Automatic Status helps teams know when to connect, Loop Team’s Quick Drop In (audio/video) calls make it nearly instantaneous for teammates to connect with just one-click. It’s as fast as Discord but optimized for work and in fact, many of our active teams actually come from Discord. Personalized Conversation Feed — When meetings are finished, they can be published to the workspace asynchronously for your distributed team. The discussions are automatically summarized using proprietary AI built in collaboration with SRI International (makers of Nuance, Siri). Loop Team is available for Windows, Max, Linux, iOS & Android. Native Chromebook is coming very soon. We’re excited and thankful for you to try Loop Team! Please share feedback, questions, and comments below.

Looks really neat :). I love the simple idea of adding focused/deep work option – very important and having less distractions actually something that makes remote work so valuable, so no point to ruin it with constant IM notifications.

@rysanna We believe that "Deep Presence" is the way. Presence today is mostly just online, offline or manually set. And when distributed, we miss all that IRL presence (and/or intent) which we use to determine when we want to chat or other. We have a lot more coming here to make this super-rich so you can have convo as if you are side-by-side but while also respecting each others flow time and more.
