TeamSpirit - Stop rambling on video calls and end meetings on time

TeamSpirit is an app that works with any conferencing platform to track your talk/listen ratio during meetings, the elapsed time of a meeting, and the current time.
TeamSpirit helps you stay on track, end meetings on time, and even curb rambling. 😉

Thanks @kevin for hunting us! Hey Product Hunt! 👋 During our meetings at smileML, I have a tendency to ramble and cause meetings to run long 😳, whereas my co-founder, @ethan_petersen, is very punctual and concise. I asked him to create TeamSpirit to help me stop rambling and making him late to meetings scheduled after ours. With the world transitioning to remote work and video calls, we wanted to share this tool instead of keeping it all to ourselves. I really love TeamSpirit because it shows me how long I've been talking vs listening and gives a friendly reminder when I need to wrap it up. It also shows elapsed time to help me stay on track. Now, I no longer have those "Oh shoot! I just spent 8 minutes talking about something that should've taken 2 minutes!" moments. This transition has been tough, but TeamSpirit can make it easier by helping you stay on track and end your meetings on time. We're excited to be launching TeamSpirit on Mac for free! We're also launching TeamSpirit Pro later this week! We're reducing the price of TeamSpirit Pro from $4.99/month to $0.99/month during this period of social distancing to support remote work.

I'm happy to answer any questions and would love to hear what you think! Cheers, Shannon

Brittany Ware
I love this idea! I often feel like I am going between talking too much and talking too little.
Ethan Petersen
@brittany_ware Thank you! I feel the same, it's been nice to see exactly what the number is, I found that I was talking for way less than I thought I was.
Maddison Beckman
Such a great idea!
John Pagano
This is a great idea! I think most of us can use a little help keeping on track during video calls.
Shannon Anderson
@john_pagano Thank you for the kind words!
Jeffrey McChesney
Shannon, Ethan - wow is this useful for us @targetarm. Super effective for our virtual calls many times a day. It has soooooo much potential for evaluating conversations on the fly to meet goals, stay on track, maximize time, etc. I'm so proud of the two of you since I met you this Spring at Techstars. Go @SmileML!

@shanander Loving this app so far and thinking about it a fair amount recently. I think adding the ability to specify the number of attendees on a call or pull dynamically from Zoom or other conferencing apps could be really helpful with the ability to manually override if there are people on the call who aren't active participants. You could use this to gauge what an equitable "talking time" should be to adjust the 50% assumed baseline.
