Mindfulmeets (for Google Meet)

Maker

Hello Product Hunt, It’s Ben (and Karina & Tris) here, the makers behind Mindfulmeets. 👋 Mindfulmeets is a thoughtful browser extension for Google Meet (Zoom/Microsoft Teams support, soon!). It came about organically, having spent hours in video meetings and not feeling so great, productive, or motivated afterwards, our team designed Mindfulmeets to inject some health and fun into the new and permanent way of ‘remote’ working. After identifying the concerns employees have about video meetings and combining these with emerging research on digital health, we tinkered and made various adjustments to the standard video conference interface. We feel we've come up with something that will motivate employees to attend and enjoy video meetings, instead of fashioning cardboard cut-outs of themselves to attend in their place. THE FEATURES 🟣 Mindful Media: Video calls can’t solve the feeling of lack of connectedness and just being yourself, so we added GIFs and Emojis for you to share with everyone or 'secretly' just your favorite colleague. 😇 🟣 Mindful Profile: We often found ourselves on calls with new people and although we could see their names, we couldn’t remember what they did or which time zone they were in - the parents in our team rejoice when they aren’t kept talking at ‘bedtime’. 🟣 Mindful Agenda: We also created a built-in agenda to keep meetings relevant and on time. Less [Meet/Zoom/Teams] fatigue. 🟣 Mindful Reminders: Our meetings still overran, so we added in-meeting reminders that you can share with others in the call. The introverts in our team love that they can leave a meeting without fanfare. 🟣 Mindful New Tab: Even with calendar reminders, we still missed meetings so we made a timeline of your day on a beautiful new tab - you’ll see gaps between meetings and we’ll soon be able to advise you of activities that you can try out to improve your wellbeing during your working day. We're adding Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Firefox support as well as a raft of new and we are ready to listen to your feedback and ideas. 🙏

I'm impressed so far! Especially helpful with (most) people being remote these days, it's easy to not be mindful (see what I did there) of other people's time. The agenda feature (with the New Tab) is definitely my favorite feature aspect! I'll be sure to share this with my coworkers. There's a lot of potential here, but I stress to be also mindful of people's security and privacy. Too many extensions these days are getting flagged for malware because of a library they depend on.

@megaroeny Thank you for the feedback ! Completely agree - we've worked to keep privacy in mind throughout so we've kept data use to a minimum as well as limited 3rd party libraries in the product. We'll continue to review this as we go forward to ensure we don't fall into that trap.

Would you consider making a free version for schools to accelerate widespread adoption and then charge for business & private users, like Canva, Loom, etc.? Your software would be a game changer in education settings.

@nwoodsart yes, we will certainly consider that. We're entirely free for now and will always have a free version and have education targeted features planned.
