I like this concept. It could serve as a more frequent, lightweight "town hall". How are companies using this today, @serainasilja? Any unexpected use cases?

@rrhoover You're spot on! Companies turn to audio to make their town halls asynchronous and screen-free. Another widespread use case? Leadership memos: Everything from weekly CEO check-ins and recaps to executive intros or the founders' story and big announcements. This is maybe not an unexpected use case for you (or perhaps it is?!), but we've seen investor updates: founders put their voice behind the new, the good, the bad, and the ugly at their startup and share it with their investors - weekly, monthly, whenever it makes sense. Have you seen this, too? 👀

Brilliant idea, audio (audio only) has the magic to broadcast not only information, but also the emotion or passion behind ideas, congratulations Seraina and team!

@seansong Thanks, Sean! I agree with everything you say. 👆 And it's an exciting space to be in. Audio-only is still underrated in today's workplaces but has the potential to make remote work more human and connected without being glued to a screen or invited to a live meeting. Have you heard of any interesting use cases before?

@serainasilja In China, big organisations used to use broadcast for important notifications, it is like radio.

@seansong Interesting! Speaking of radio, I know a big Nordic company that has a radio channel run by and for their factory workers. Kinda cool! 📻 Is there a specific company or platform behind the broadcasting in China?

@carlo_thissen That's what we keep hearing! Messages get lost easily in day-to-day work channels. And they often lack the human element. We imagine Pager to be the place for conversations and lasting messages that matter shared by and for employees, so we can all learn from one another. 💭 How do you share important messages with your team?

@serainasilja I resonate a lot with your reasoning on the human element. It's what we 100% support at tl;dv as well! Very curious to take a deeper look at your product and if we can adopt it in our team :)
