@raulpopa Thanks Raul! Just shoot me a message if you want a hand getting set up π
Been using Hugo with our Team and am a huge fan β hard to imagine meetings without them now!
Hugo is amazing! The integrations have been incredibly helpful to our team.
Congrats on the launch!
Makes meetings easy - an incredible tool for increasing productivity and team communication.
We're obviously biased as investors via Slack Fund, but personally I love the Hugo product. I've always had a hard time staying on top of tasks/next-steps from meetings, but Hugo completely fixes that for me. They centralize all my tasks from my meeting notes throughout the day. It has been a huge productivity boost the past 6 months.
@dillonfrd thanks to you, Jason and the SlackFund team, for your support both in and out of the product!
Hey ProductHunters π,
We know that meetings really sucked in 2020. Our research shows an average of 33% more meetings, each with more attendees being squeezed into them, and getting longer too π€―.
Worse, the value created in each meeting along with the action items, are typically lost as soon as the meeting ends. And, we now know that this new way of working isnβt going to change any time soon π«.
Hugo was already helping thousands of teams with meeting docs that link to your calendar. But, throughout the pandemic, Hugo users (small startups of 5 to large companies like Netflix and Spotify) beat these horrible trends. On average, Hugo customers attend 40% less meetings, complete >50% more action items and improve meeting culture by more than 70%.
Now we have rebuilt Hugo to make meetings even better for remote teams. You can get set up in <2 minutes, prepare for meetings asynchronously, take meeting notes together, leverage custom templates and manage action items through Hugo tasks and app integrations β‘οΈ.
Finally, a huge thanks to the PH community! When @hnshah first hunted us in 2019, we connected with some of our most loyal customers. Since then, weβve iterated on their early feedback and subsequently closed funding from Google's Gradient Ventures, Slack Fund, Founder Collective and EntrΓ©e Capital.
Hugo remains free for teams of 10. Connect your work calendar to get started.
Now go and have fewer, shorter, better meetings πππ.
- Josh, Darren and the Hugo team
The Hugo team has built something special. The attention to detail they put into the product is magic β¨ and has helped us better document and plan our meetings.
+1 for templates as this saves us a ton of time.
@patrickt010 Thanks Patrick and good call on the templates! We're up to around 120 and growing each week. We love helping you and the Iteratively team meet better... π
Iβve had the good fortune of working with the Hugo team and can say this about them...
They are OBSESSED with getting to know their customers in order to serve them better. Always adding new capabilities and integrations. Always improving the UX. Always listening.
When doing customer interviews, different people liked different features but the team emerged as the thing everyone loved.
Definitely recommend giving it a try (heck itβs free for up to 10 users).
@swaycopy Thanks Josh! Loved working with you and tracking all of those interviews.
Haven't invited my team and clients yet, but I'm LOVING Hugo so far. Really solves a pain point. Looking forward to a direct ClickUp.com integration and improved iOS app (especially on larger screens). Keep rocking!
@joshlowy - Nice! ;) And I heard a humor that if you integrate with big apps like ClickUp β engage with their team and get cross-listed with them β you automagically get more customers. ;)
Sincerely wishing you all well! Great app (Hugo).
Big fan of Hugo, highly recommend, and really looking forward to using 2.0! Congrats on the launch!
@shanegeldbach it's great to hear from you! Thanks for all of your feedback and ideas along the way π
Big fan of Hugo. Bigger fan of @darren_chait ans @joshlowy. Congrats on a killer update.
@nickvalluri thanks mate... you're always going above and beyond to advocate the Hugo way π
@jay_0687 Thanks for the support Jay! Hope you're enjoying the latest updates.
@darren_chait Have you thought to bring this within the Gsuite for visibility. As it might make it easier for users! An icon on your taskbar showing up how much time left to attend next meeting! Just my 2 cents! :)
@jay_0687 Totally agree! We actually have a Chrome extension so you can use Hugo wherever you're browsing too, but I'd love to keep iterating with more G Suite integration.
Thanks for hunting us @chrismessina. Itβs great to be back with the latest from Hugo π !
Weβve also had some great coverage and support over the past year:
βHugoβs innovation is a platform that integrates more deeply within a userβs calendar, recognizing things like past notes from a meeting with a specific personβ¦β TechCrunch
βHugo is much simpler [than Evernote] because the calendar connection organizes everything... Hugo provides one place to collaboratively prepare, take notes, assign tasks and share, and integrates with more than 20+ work apps.β Entrepreneur
Kudos to the Hugo team for iterating like mad into building a product that is truly helping reduce the time and brain power it takes to get day-to-day tasks done. I'm a fan and can't wait to see Huge 3.0!
It integrates with well with operational meetings and external meetings. The ability to add tasks in various apps from within the meeting notes is more than a time saver.
@johannakloot you're right - the best Hugo teams power both internal AND external meetings with Hugo. π€©
@tombielecki yep it's on the roadmap and we hope to get to it soon! In the meantime, quite a few customers have shown us an interesting solution as a stop gap - using our Zapier integration to automate posting important notes to Teams channels.
I would be happy to walk you through that workflow any time π.
