😺 Hello Product Hunt 😺 Brian here, Co-Founder & Head of Product at Typed. It’s an honor to share our first (official) launch! We have so much ❤️ for the Product Hunt community and have been preparing this launch for well over a year now. We couldn’t be more excited to finally share Typed⏎ with you all 😊 For a detailed overview of Typed and its features, check out our beginner’s guide here: https://typed.do/blog/product/th... And as a little thank you to the Product Hunt community, you can grab an exclusive discount code for your first three months of Typed for only $1/month. Now, in the immortal words of Jay Z, allow us to re-introduce ourselves… 🙋🏻‍♂️Who we are At Team Typed, our mission is to make work easier, more efficient, and more fun. Our team is only two years old 👶 but is currently the fastest growing startup in Korea 🇰🇷. An official partner of Google, Typed is used across 100+ countries 🌐, primarily by tech startups and business owners like yourselves, and we have attracted significant investment from both VCs and Angel Investors. 👀 What is Typed? Typed is a document editor and collaboration tool that revolutionizes knowledge management to act as your team’s second brain through some really smart features and AI 🤖 Currently, we waste two hours every day looking for the information we need to get work done. That’s like hiring five people and having one of them literally never show up! At Typed, we’ve redesigned the way our users collaborate by connecting their documents and adding significantly more power to them. ⁉️ Why Typed? Here are some of Typed’s key features that help teams work smarter: 🤝 Google Integration Typed integrates directly with your Google Drive. You can import all the documents that are in your Google account, and the work you do in Typed is automatically added to your Drive in a Shared Folder. Typed’s Document Editor will also be familiar to Google users, as it uses the same Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides interface, but with a number of new features that add a lot more functionality to your documents. The idea is that rather than replacing the document editing tools that you and your team are familiar with, Typed syncs up with them and adds to their power and organization. 📖 The Resource Library Every document in Typed comes with its own Resource Library. Here you can add other documents, files, and resources from the internet, your local device, and your past work. The more you use Typed, the more it understands your work, and begins to recommend relevant resources to speed up your creation process while you work. 🧠 Knowledge Network In Typed, documents and the resources you use to create them are organized contextually rather than hierarchically (Folder > Sub Folder > Sub Folder > File). We do a number of cool things with this, but one of our users’ favorite features is the ability to see a visual mindmap of how all the documents in a project relate to each other using our Knowledge Network. Along with offering valuable insights on the relationship between the work you and your team are doing, this makes it much easier to find files quickly by browsing visually. Once you’ve added your work to Typed, you’ll never lose it! 🔎 Split Screen Viewer In Typed, you can edit and view two documents simultaneously. This massively improves productivity, and allows our users to escape the inefficient practice of having 400+ tabs open on their computer while they work on a document. When a user clicks on a resource in a Typed document’s Resource Library, it loads instantly, allowing them to grab the information they need without ever breaking flow. 📱 Mobile App We are so excited to have launched a new Mobile App in time for our Product Hunt launch! In our Mobile App you’ll find all of the same functionality as our Web App, but fully optimized for mobile allowing you to supercharge your productivity on the go. 🗂 Templates Our community has already done a lot of cool things within Typed. We’ve taken the best examples of their work and turned them into templates so all of our users can benefit. Currently we have templates for OKRs, Brainstorming, Weekly Checklists, Meeting Notes, and Pitch Decks, with more coming soon! 🚨Even more info on how to Typed 👉Typed Public Roadmap: https://app.loopedin.io/typed#/r... 👉Typed Tutorial: https://typed.do/blog/product/th... 👉Typed Use Case: https://typed.do/blog/category/u... If you have any questions, feel free to talk to us at support@typed.do or ask us directly in the discussion. Thank you all so much, we can’t wait to hear your feedback! Happy Typing ⏎ Brian, Co-Founder of Typed

@bri_shin The beginning of the knowledge management revolution!!!!

@fares_aktouf Thank you very much Fares! Please let us know if you have any feedback regarding Typed 😊
Ryan Hoover
Cool to see this live. I remember seeing an early mockup of Typed. :) @bri_shin – What's been the biggest learning so far?
Brian Shin
Hey Ryan! Good to see you again :) After 400+ hours of user interviews for the past year, our biggest learning so far was the validation of our hypothesis regarding the value of "output-based work system". Our users (entrepreneurs, early startups, business teams, etc.) have been facing much frustration using existing file management & project management tools because "actual work" and "managing work" have always been a separate concept. This adds to the problem of information silo and fragmented workflow. Typed is structured in a way that all of the activities of the users are geared towards building and sharing the output, while Typed takes care of the rest. As a collaboration tool, we believe people should only focus on what matters while the tool streamlines the work experience for them. Amazing collaborative work tools/infra exists for designers (Figma) and developers (Github, Gitlab) but not for knowledge workers whose work is primary document-based. We plan to change that. As part of TechCrunch Startup Battlefield 200 our team will be in SF in October, and if your time allows, we would love to tell you more about Typed! @rrhoover

Hello everyone, it's great to be back on Product Hunt after a full year since our beta! 👼 We launched on PH in Feb. 2021, and we're super excited to be here again with a completely upgraded product ⏎ Initially we launched as an individual note-taking tool, and after literally thousands of user interviews since last year, we have scaled the product to a fully collaborative tool very much focused on revolutionizing how teams manage digital knowledge so that you can get work done 💪 The old document and the traditional way of organizing it need to change. Entrepreneurs and businesses need a new kind of document that’s more intuitive and adaptable to their dynamic needs. This is where Typed comes in. Typed is more than a document editor. It’s a knowledge management and document editing tool that organizes information for entire teams. Here is more on Typed's Manifesto: https://typed.do/blog/product/th... Finally, it's incredible to be back in Product Hunt community ❤️ Knowing how much of a privilege this is, we've prepared a small gift 🎁 Please check out our exclusive promotion for this launch: instead of $10 per month, you get 90% discount with the PH coupon code! Share it with as many people as possible. The more the merrier! Thank you to all the makers around the world, and it's an honor to be alongside you all 🙏 🙏 🙏
Rithvik Podduturi
@clint_eastyood will the discount apply for the subsequent years also? If yes, I will get it right now.
Clint Yoo

Minwoo Cho
Hello everyone! It's great to be back since our beta last year! Today we are launching our official Typed 1.0 on ProductHunt and our team is extremely excited to share our product with all you guys in this amazing community. The biggest upgrade? We finally built a product for teams to use collaboratively, increasing the efficiency of not only individual users, but entire teams. Today, we are continuously building a product that will revolutionize collective knowledge management. In addition, we have added a mobile app that will allow you to view your docs wherever you are. Now, manage you and your team's docs on the move! Maker's favorite feature? Typed is full of fun and productive features, but my personal favorite is the "Review" feature. This feature allowed me to keep track of docs that I have shared to my team members and docs that have been shared to me. Basically it functions like a Task Manager or Email for docs! Just because we are extremely excited to be back, we've prepared a small gift 🎁 Please check out our exclusive promotion for this launch: instead of $10 per month, you get 90% discount with the PH coupon code! Share it with your friends! Thank you to all the makers and innovators around the world 🙏 🙏 🙏

By far, Typed is literally no brainer! You don't need to use your brain capacity but just to use Typed for any document associated collabrations at global scale
Brian Shin
@markatsendbird Thank you for the good words Mark! We will make sure to continue innovating until the day we revolutionize every startup's knowledge management. Truly appreciate your support!

Alice Inspire Me
As a founder of a consumer goods startup, this concept of revolutionising knowledge management is fascinating to me. I may not be a 'tech bro' but I understand how to be productive and streamlined when working in a fast paced startup and Typed has been a god send - I use it every day to organise my docs and share work with my team!
Clint Yoo
@alice_inspire_me Alice this is such a wonderful comment. We cannot thank you enough for being a Typer since the early days! We've come so far, but there is so much to be done!!
