Friday

What is Friday?

Friday is an intranet designed to help companies work efficiently from anywhere. It integrates with tools you already use, like Slack and project management software, to create a centralized hub for important work-related information. Unlike static platforms like Notion, Friday is dynamic and constantly updated, making it easier for teams to stay connected and informed.

Benefits

Friday offers several key advantages for remote and distributed teams:

• Automated Team Check-Ins:Automate routine communication to promote cross-team visibility without the need for additional meetings.
• Share Important News:Ensure important announcements are read by pushing them to Slack and email simultaneously, reducing noise and increasing visibility.
• Centralize Goals:Align teams by setting and tracking goals in one place, making it easier to see progress and priorities.
• Stay in the Loop:Team check-ins show what each member is working on, which is especially useful for remote and asynchronous work.
• Integrations:Friday integrates with existing tools, centralizing important work into one place.

Use Cases

Friday is ideal for companies that need to:

• Reduce Meetings:Automate check-ins to cut down on unnecessary meetings and increase transparency.
• Improve Communication:Share important news and announcements effectively, ensuring they are seen by the entire team.
• Align Teams:Set and track goals to ensure everyone is working on the most important priorities.
• Enhance Remote Work:Stay connected and informed about what team members are working on, even in a remote or asynchronous work environment.

Vibes

Friday has received positive feedback from users:

• Nick Ducoff, Co-Founder & CEO of Edmit:"Friday is the easiest way to stay connected and aware of what's going on at Edmit. It neatly complements Slack and helps create predictable flows of communication, which means fewer meetings and distractions."
• Christine Garrison, Good & Welfare Officer at 10up:"We've found this tool beneficial for giving our managers supplemental talking points for their one-on-ones and for allowing us to catch signs of potential burn-out early on. We are able to keep a pulse on team well-being thanks to the data that Friday provides!"

Additional Information

Friday is used by high-performing distributed companies like Gitlab, Automattic, Stripe, Shopify, and Zapier. These companies have manually created their own "intranet" to complement workplace chat tools like Slack, and Friday provides a more streamlined and effective solution for this need.
