Pesto (f.k.a. Pragli) was one of my greatest finds in the COVID era as it helped my team who were scattered in one day and lost the feeling of "working together". It has its small bugs and quirks but generally speaking, it strikes a great balance between useful and fun, perfect for that "team" feeling. Congrats to the team for this great product, and hope the pricing lands within the feasible area for us.. =)
@nixd Woo! Glad you've been loving the experience so far. Quality has been a huge focus for us these last few months, so we'll keep laser focused on getting the bugs sorted
@nixd Thank you Nisan! The team has been really focused on squashing those bugs and polishing the product so it's closer to enterprise-ready. And we'll make pricing such that it's a no-brainer for you :)
Hey Product Hunt,
I’m Doug, co-founder and CEO at Pesto. Vivek and I started working on Pesto (at the time, called Pragli) pre-COVID because we were tired of the communication friction and loneliness of remote work.
At the time, we wanted to build a small bootstrapped business... because remote work was a niche! As you may imagine, things have gone way faster than we expected. Over 10,000 teams have signed up for Pesto and we just announced our $5M seed round. Our users logged an estimated 100,000,000 audio/video minutes in 2021.
So.. what is it? Pesto is a digital workplace where teams get work done, hangout, play games, and generally live their work lives.
The workplace consists of rooms, customizable spaces for different types of activities. For instance, you may setup a room where you meet like you would in Zoom... or one where you walk around on a map, quietly vibe out to Lofi music, or even play games like trivia. Rooms are reflected in the left bar and are lightning quick to hop between.
In this workplace, your avatar can be a significantly less fatiguing version of video. You can still turn on video if you want, and rooms support 4k screen share with screen drawing.
We (still!) haven’t released pricing, but we plan to launch a paid tier in a few months and will give all PH users a 10% discount once we do (save the code PH10). We’re also working on our SOC-2 compliance and other enterprise features.
Try out Pesto with your teams and let us know what you think; we’ll be here to answer questions and receive feedback.
Sincerely,
Doug
