Working with distributed teams is becoming the status quo. WallSync bridges that gap nicely of being inclusive to remote team members.

@charlesfugitt the post-it app is great at capturing square post-its and lots of them
What we are good at is capturing the notes, transcribing the handwritten notes into text and putting them into task management tools. So, we think - great for planning.
We also support content on whiteboards and notebooks
So, the post-it app, great for a big brainstorm... And we think we are great for more structured content that needs to become items in task tools like trello, jira

I’ve seen WallSync evolve from one of the very earliest prototypes at UTS Startups, it’s great to see it ready for the Product Hunt community (errr... assuming it’s ready 🤣). I have two questions for the WallSync team: (1) what’s been the hardest element of the product concept to execute in code so far; and (2) are you stopping at recognising sticky notes, or is there more yet to come?
@bigyahu thanks for hunting us! And for all your feedback along the way...
It's come a fair fair way in the last few months. Although we're still in free beta and working with our users as much as possible.
1) right now, I'd have to say working with image processing on Android! So many different devices that behave differently!
2) We haven't stopped at sticky notes. We can now do whiteboards too...
We are working on some more complex machine learning implementations that allow us to digitise diagrams, tables, mindmaps and have them editable - so they can evolve over time.
Thanks again! Hope we get some useful feedback from going through this
@haitianwatcher Thanks James 🙌 - would love to get your feedback as you try it out. We're working hard to make it even more accurate, add integrations and new features.
Let us know if there is anything you'd like to see in the app.
@_mark_lewis some of us think it is a great time saver when you can't help but use a computer :-) . Thanks!!
I've been using the beta version for the last few months. Saved me a tonne of time! Really impressive with how accurate the hand writing recognition is.
I like anything that can shave even a few minutes of time off my day.
If you want to save hours from every👏single👏day👏.. then this is for you.
If you bill by the hour, then maybe not something, you would be interested in.
Perfect for agile teams, or just single devs who like to write and brainstorm and need to keep a record of it.
@troy_kelly well, thank you! Yes, a lot of Agile people are using it at the moment...
Tested it out and had a little play, seems super useful! Was impressed by it's ability to read my handwriting! Would love to see integrations with more platforms, is that planned?
@chris_hind what is particular integrations are you after. We have just (this week) added a basic google sheets integration. And we're working on an email based report so you can leave an informal email and have a typed up version of minutes and actions based on what was on the whiteboard or butchers paper
Anything in particular you need
@troy_kelly oh interesting, kind of like how github shows when you have committed in a calendar?
@geoffbullen @troy_kelly A nice idea 👍. I will add it to Geoff's extensive backlog 🤣
@geoffbullen I use the Google suite of products every day, so great to hear that you've got Sheets integration! Am a big fan of the Calendar suggestion as well
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
Great to be here and excited to get your feedback!
WallSync Capture uses computer vision, handwriting recognition and machine learning to help you get 💩 done!
Manually typing up meeting action items or workshop sticky notes is tedious and time-consuming. More often than not, it takes hours or doesn't get done, slowing your project's progress.
🙏 We'd love to get your feedback and happy to answer questions.
What makes it cool?
👉 Capture sticky notes (in columns or groups), handwritten lists or text boxes
👉 Export your notes to Trello, Jira or Google Sheets
👉 Keep or remove the image for each note
How does it work?
1️⃣ Capture images notes using the app
2️⃣ Your notes are digitised in seconds
3️⃣ Add, edit or delete notes as needed
4️⃣ Export your notes to your productivity tool of choice
Download the app for iPhone or Android and give it a whirl!
@user, !product
@amnonjackson you'd be surprised! Would love for you to try it out and let us know how you go.
The incentive to not have to manually type up your notes is also a great motivator to write a little neater 😆
Tried the product to see how it goes with our scrum meetings where we use post-it notes and Trello to manage task assignments. Normally, I would have to spend about an hour to key in the notes content to the Trello board. This app took all just by taking photographs of the wall. It’s amazing how it can take so many notes, read handwritten texts and push to Trello just in seconds. Highly recommended.
Great product... when you use this app you kinda ask yourself... why has this not been thought of before?! Well done WallSync
@andy_edwards1 Thanks Andy. It took a decent amount of blood, sweat and tears to get it to where it is today.
Great to see WallSynch go on producthunt! Well done Geoff and worth the hard work. It's a great product and you added a lot of functionality since I looked last.
@jochenschweitzer thanks Jochen. It's been a busy 6 months! Appreciate the early feedback you gave and would love for you to keep telling us how we can improve.
@jenlittlescribe Thanks for the support and for the valuable feedback through the beta 🙌
Improved productivity and keeping brain storming, creative processes alive, great stuff
@iain_bartram Thanks Iain. Momentum from workshop or meeting is something we have really tried to focus on. So important to maintain it so that energy isn't lost / forgotten.
Our team has tried and failed at staying organised in various ways, but digitising our brainstorms and immediately getting it into Trello has been absolutely amazing for us.
@richard_savoie thanks Richard. Maintaining momentum out of workshops is definitely an underrated productivity hack. Appreciate the support and thanks for the feedback on the beta.
