The big call to action 'learn more' button took me to a series of points that didn't really clue me into what it was about. I thought I got it, but I wasn't sure - certainly not sure enough by the time I got dumped off at the signup page.
Both the 'about' and the 'features' page told me more, but I had to click around to get to those, and I went to them only after I went through the 'learn more' flow.
Now that I think I get it, it sounds pretty cool - asynchronous text-based meetings. But I had to click around a fair bit more than most people will to understand it.
It wasn't until I read the About and Features that I actually understood the product.
The benefits listed in the "Learn More" are really good...you just need to add a little more concrete information about the product itself.
Anyhow, looks interesting and I'm going to recommend it to my company. We work in three different locations (and two timezones), so it could be useful for us.
Glad that in the end you got it.
I HATE a pitch without screenshots. It's a waste of my time and makes me instantly skeptical of the product.
2) You definitely need some screenshots or a video. After browsing the entire site for a few minutes I only have a vague guess of what this application might do.
Better to charge a flat rate per user, or follow the 37 Signals example and not charge per user at all.

It's a good idea - don't let crappy copy lose you signups.
I can’t express my thoughts clearly when there are other louder individuals at an in-person meeting. This way, I can sit down, relax, gather my thoughts and provide a whole lot more valuable input. This way everybody wins - me and my company.
Of course I’d have to say this doesn’t work in all circumstances, like free-for-all brainstorming sessions, but still.
Everyone can tell what that means.
* There's not enough information on your homepage for me to figure out what you do
* The information I need is between one and three clicks away ("learn more", and then "more" until I've read enough to get it), clicking "more" just gets in the way
* I don't really get the "you will", "we will" dichotomy. Frankly, I don't care what "I will" do, all I want to know is how this product is going to make my life easier.
* Stop using buzzwords ("message-based collaboration", "asynchronously"), and just tell me what you do in plain English
* Some of the English phrases come out awkwardly ("We will guide you to prepare quality agenda before calling the meeting.")
Having said all that, it's a neat idea, and I hope it catches on. We all need fewer meetings.
I think a video, or an example of someone using it would be nice. The philosophy alone is not enough for me to understand the app, or even make me want to use it.
Meetings really can suck and take too much time. This app helps me to give feedback and move on with whatever I'm doing ...
The common use case right now is time-shifted decision making, but this would kick ass if it were real-time.
Good job with the design. Nice legible type, unambiguous form layout. I think the landing page could bring forward some content from the Learn More and Features subpages.
1. hard to find the availability for all participants 2. archiving meeting minutes and finding them when I need them
this could be the ideal solution, especially because i can control my time and still participate on the meeting.
do you have the same problems? how you are solving them?
Can't emphasize enough how fast the product evolved into a must have. No more "I didn't promise/say that.'
I would have liked to see 4-5 of those "people hates" and then a demo of the product in action.
From a product point of view, I think it should integrate with a corporate LDAP otherwise you have the catch-22 problem of any social network like system.
I really like the idea of decision based (rather than talk based) meeting goals. Rather than "let's have a meeting to talk about it" it becomes "let's have a meeting to decide X", then it becomes possible to draw time-lines of the decision making process and those involved, which hopefully leads to accountability and improved engagement.
My only criticism is that companies would want to host this. The security concerns and longevity of the data would be beyond any IT depts stress threshold. I could imagine the privacy policy causing my companies IT dept to start having panic attacks. Then again, everything's going cloud, so maybe other IT departments will be fine with it.
