Plus - Make any integration as simple as a screenshot

by
Plus is the easiest way to bring all of your team’s data wherever you need it. Take live Snapshots of any app and embed them in your favorite productivity tools. Our goal is to make any integration as simple and intuitive as sharing a screenshot.

So excited for more people to experience the productivity addition that Plus is. I feel like someone looked into my chaotic screenshot folder and said: “let’s help her out”.

👋 Hi Product Hunt! I’m Dan, cofounder and CEO of Plus. We’re incredibly excited to launch on Product Hunt today and show you what we’re working on! 💡 Why are we building Plus? • The average business today uses ~100 different apps, and it’s become a mess to keep track of information across 100 different tools. • When you think about the billions of dollars the tech industry has invested into data tools, it’s pretty crazy to think that the most common way people share information with one another is still just taking screenshots and copying and pasting them into different tools. • It’s 2023, and we think there should be a better way for people to move their data around. 💡 How does Plus work? • Plus lets you take live Snapshots of any app (think of a screenshot that automatically stays up to date) and embed them in the productivity tools you use every day. • We automate the manual work of visiting an app or website, taking a Snapshot of the same chart over and over again, and then putting it into the report or dashboard that you want so you can share it with your team, your customers, or your investors. • That way you can focus on understanding and acting on your data, not moving it from one app to another. 💡 What can you do with Plus? • Our customers use Plus to create ops dashboards, build reports that automatically stay up to date, and share data with their teams. • ➡️ But the best way to understand how Plus works is to see it in action, so check out the dashboard we’re using to track our Product Hunt launch today: (link: https://plusdocs.notion.site/Pub...) 💡 Try it out, and feel free to ask questions! • Plus is free to use while we’re in public beta. Eventually we’ll add premium features, but the core functionality will be always be free. • What we’re asking for in return is your help and feedback. We are looking to continue building and improving the product based on how customers are using it and what they need. • We’ll be around on Product Hunt all day if you’d like to ask any questions. Or feel free to pop in to our Slack community (link: bit.ly/plusslack), and follow us on LinkedIn or Twitter to stay up to date!

Excellent idea and beautifully designed! 👏 I've used the Arc browser for a while now, and they have a similar feature, but the thing is that some of the screenshots would require constant reauthentication, and that made it very inconvenient. How do you address that problem?
Dan Li
Thanks @tomaslau! Appreciate you taking a look at the product! There are a few differences between how Arc's feature works and what we do with Plus. The two biggest ones are (1) our Snapshots are taken in the cloud so you don't need to open your browser to refresh them and (2) we allow you to embed them in other apps. We do, however, require you to reauthenticate your Snapshots from time to time. Because we are building specifically for this use case, there are a number of things we do to make it easier. For example, we detect if your Snapshots are logged out and 'freeze' them on the last successful Snapshot so your dashboards don't break, and if you have multiple Snapshots from the same site, we send you an alert and you only have to reauthenticate once for all of them. Eventually, we will offer customers the ability to store a set of credentials (similar to Plaid) if they would like us to "log back in" for them, but in the meantime, we are working on several ways to make the process easier for users!

@danielxli I like it! It sounds like you've thought about it. Best of luck with the launch! 🚀
Sarah Wong
Congratulations on the launch @danielxli and Plus team! I've been a Plus user for over a year during the private beta, and it's awesome to watch how the product has evolved. I primarily use it to pull data from multiple tools into a single dashboard, so that I can share information about our business across the team. My team loves how easy it is for everyone to get the latest charts/tables/etc. from multiple sources, and I love how it frees up my time to focus on the important parts of my work. Excited to see the public launch! If you're reading this, you should definitely try it out!
Dan Li
Thanks for your support and for always providing us with great feedback @sarah_wong!
Brian Park
This is a really cool product! I can see so many ways I can integrate this into my daily workflow. Great job to the Plus team!
Dan Li
Thanks @brian_park8!! Let me know if you have any questions as you try it out!
Chloe Qi
We're so excited to share Plus with the world and see how all of you will use it! Check out our use cases page (https://www.plusdocs.com/use-cases) for inspiration. 👏 @kevinzweerink for our new marketing site.

Congrats on the launch :) Great work @danielxli, @chloe_qi1, and the team. Love the simplicity and instant value it brings other than saving me hours each week. I have been using Plus at work and it is nothing less than magic. As a product lead at Houzz, I have to keep track of the most important KPIs and these live in multiple dashboards like amplitude, tableau, redash. To get a complete view of how our product is doing, I have to go to multiple dashboards and piece together the story. With Plus, I just have one place to go to see everything in one view and focus my attention. With their latest slack subscription, all of this comes to me in my daily workflow. Time to value is instant, and the best part, it keeps them all updated. This one view also helps me facilitate conversations with my team and management as well as everything is in the same view. Now Plus is used at Houzz amongst product, growth, and ops teams. If you are a product/growth/ops person, this is a must-have for you to stay on top of the most important KPIs. Another side benefit, whenever my VP asks me about certain numbers, I have it right there, and I can quickly answer vs looking at 10 dashboards. Keep the magic going 🪄

@manjot_pal - thank you so much for your support and feedback on the product! it's been a blast to see how you are able to use the product at Houzz. Looking forward to continue working together!

Congratulations on the public launch @danielxli and team! We've been happy Plus customers for a year and a half and numerous teams use Plus to save hours and hours of work. Anytime we on-board someone new onto the team, we show them Plus and inevitably they find some new way to utilize the software. We're big big fans of Plus! Do yourself a favor, save some time, and make your life a bit easier. Try out Plus!
Dan Li
thank you for the support @brennan_keough!! It's been awesome working with you all!

Kyle Kilat
Congrats on the launch! Very slick solution, that has given me a really new and exciting way to think about how I 'integrate' various tools together 🤯 For instance, I would've _loved_ to have this in my last job to create live dashboards and decks and keep stakeholders updated more efficiently. Keep up the great work!
Dan Li
Thanks @kkilat!! That's what we are going for!!
