@jcvangent thank you Hans for the great question. Companies with office can use Focus for setting goals (OKRs). So, we don't see big challenge there. Thank you for your support!
The product looks very interesting. As a solo founder using Notion to track my progress, I see the value of having OKRs and graphs in one place. I have signed up to try it.
Btw, when I signed up, the page didn't redirect or refresh after clicking Signup.
@orask thank you so much for your feedback and support! I really appreciate it!
Did you see the message that we sent you an email to confirm your email address?
I did and verified my account successfully. I had a quick look and created my first OKR.
I quite like that you have examples when the OKRs are empty to show how they will look like. I think it would be great if you can make these examples more transparent (like 50%) transparent to keep the {focus} on creating new ones. But this is just a personal preference, take it with a grain of salt.
Very simple and useful tool! @a007mr for making it. Have booked a meeting for 1:1 meeting demo already. ❤️
@anupamapanchal great. Thanks for your feedback Anupama. I really appreciate it. Talk to you then!
1. Creating OKRs is pretty easy with examples.
2. Creating tasks and assigning them to OKRs is great! I anticipate that this feature in itself will increase my focus to hit my OKRs.
3. Dashboard showing the progress.
4. Daily check-ins works as a journal for daily learnings.
@orask your feedback is a gem. Thanks for highlighting main points. You did it better than our description :) Thanks man!
Hey Hunters👋
Thanks @kevin for hunting us!
We have been working on Focus for the last 2 years and learn a lot about OKRs and remote communication.
The lack of alignment between team members impacts on team outcomes. People don't know what matters the most. Some companies start to use OKR (Objectives and Key Results) framework to be more focused. However, it's not so simple as it might look. Many OKRs tools are overcomplicated with different features that you don't need.
At the same time, continuous zoom meetings take a lot of time because it's never been so easy to "jump on another call." All these things, together with loneliness from remote work, don't make our work life happier.
That's why we decided to build Focus and fix it. Create a simple and useful tool that allows you to achieve better results and feel happier.
At Focus, we have 3 main parts that allow teams to go to the next level of team management game:
– Strategy: identify top priorities by setting OKRs and keep your team's focus on them day after day.
– Execution: escape from pointless meetings. Automate standup, weekly plans, updates, and more. Replace lengthy meetings and other interruptions with efficient online check-ins.
– Culture: empower people and unlock their best performance. Build happy and high-performing teams.
🙏 Try it out to improve your OKRs, save time, and achieve better results -- and please let us know what you think!
Hey Anton! Good job! 👍🙂
How did you find the idea? What was the problem you are faced with?
@shashcoffe thanks Alexey! Really appreciate it!
When I was in corporate world, I really struggle with the lack of alignment. People didn't understand how they impact on company's goals. Different teams sometimes worked on opposite goals. And there wasn't clarity on what's going in the company, what're our top priorities. That's why we decided to build Focus.
@a007mr Understood. Thx for the answer, Anton. It's really cool when your product is from your pain point. Have a good product hunt day)
What a great concept! I would recommend integrating other tools (such as Salesforce etc.) to fully understand the picture and to connect the OKRs with the company's business and past results. Good luck!
@guy_altagar2 great advice Guy! We have it in our roadmap. Thanks for your feedback!
Dear Anton, great product. Quick question on the Employee Engagement Management part, when do we plan to see that out. We are about to start adopt an OKR tool and almost finalised one when I came across Focus, would love to see what's the progress on engagement part and when do u plan to release it. Great job by the way in terms of website & layouts, trying the product today. Best Abhi
@aballabh thank you for your support! It means a lot for us! We've already published Icebreakers last week. Other Employee Engagement Management tools will be published in August :)
Congrats on the launch! Looks super helpful for remote teams to collaborate smoothly and stay aligned.
That's really cool! We do need the good tool for remote collaboration. Especially in our "new normal" life :)
@mikhail_gorin thanks Mikhail! It means a lot for us. Really appreciate it!
Congrats Anton! Tools for the remote teams seem to be the hot topic these days. Situational launch for the Russian-speaking part of community lol :)
I love it when something so simple and useful is almost fully integrated with Slack. I don't like juggling another tool for every new process. Congrats on the launch, will definitely give it a try with my team!
@keremakaynak thank you Kerem. It means a lot for me. Really appreciate it!
Focus is an awesome tool for setting, managing and tracking KPIs. Anton and his team are doing a great job and the product is always improving!
@peter_loving thank you Peter! It means a lot for me. Really appreciate it!
Stopped working when trial ended despite having paid for subscription. @a007mr Also not getting replies to any questions or support requests... Would be great if someone got back to me. Thanks
I don't recommend this product at all, they are probably not compliant as I don't have the option to remove my account and / or delete data, also all the mails are tedious to remove since you don't have the option to disable all, I've even tried via e-mail or chat on their website... and nothing! please if the Focus team is reading this... delete my account please!
Beautifully simplified, well done, Focus team! Looking forward to trying this out.
Congratulations on the launch, I had no idea what an OKR is so I learned that today 😀
