* These terms often pop up organically, which creates confusion as not everybody is aware of the specific meaning.
* Terms frequently need to change for one reason or another, which has lead to multiple terms competing with each other but meaning (mostly) the same thing.
* New team members don't know the specific definitions, so there is an additional learning curve during onboarding.
Has anybody else encountered this problem? Any good tips or tools for keeping everybody on the same page when it comes to company lingo?
Virtual meetings can be frustrating. When we meet in person, we don't just look and talk at each other. When we meet in person, we don’t just look and talk at each other. We make notes, we write on whiteboards, we set timers, we raise our hands. Broadly speaking, we can effortlessly utilize our environments in order to more easily transmit ideas brain-to-brain. Unfortunately, video chat platforms have mostly killed that flexibility.
That why we built Align (https://align.link), the only extensible video chat platform. Platforms like Zoom have done a great job removing the friction of scheduling, starting, and joining meetings. But there is still the question of what actually happens in the meeting. We don’t want to answer that question, we want to help you answer it instead. We made Align so that anyone with an idea of how to make their virtual meetings even just a little more useful can build an app to bring their idea to life. And best of all, apps can be easily shared with the meeting-goers of the world.
Our SDK is currently in private beta, if you’re interested in developing a meeting app, sign up for the wait list on our website (https://align.link/#sdk-beta).
We'd love to hear your ideas for apps that can make your meetings better :)
