Tandem 2.0 - Unlock serendipity with the most powerful virtual office

Hi PH! I'm Rajiv, co-founder of Tandem along with @bernatfortet and @iambetaful. We launched nearly 2 years ago (the PH community's feedback was key to setting our product direction) and we've learned a ton since then: - We've learned how crucial audio-video reliability and performance are, and we've invested deeply in infra to give you the best possible experience. - Despite all the ink spilled on asynchronous work, at the end of the day, we build relationships, friendships, visions, and strong teams by talking. - Presence is more than signals - it's about Stories, feeling connected with, and aware of, conversations your teammates are having. - As the world starts going hybrid, the Virtual Office and the Physical Office need to co-exist and become intimately aware of each other. - Through supporting and listening closely to larger companies, we've learned how to scale serendipity! (see Team Tables below) Tandem is, no joke, 1000x better than when we launched. We've kept the lightweight desktop interface, and added powerful ways to connect, collaborate, and be human with your team. We also recently reached a truly awesome milestone: 2 million hours of calls on Tandem! 🏄‍♀️ 🙌 We started Tandem when my co-founders each had kids and we started working remotely. We missed the flow and camaraderie of working together, so we started building. Since then, my co-founders' kids are walking and talking (and high-fiving us on Tandem), and we've been joined by a truly world-class set of builders and thinkers that have pushed our vision of Tandem further and further. We're launching three new features here on Product Hunt: 👥 Team Tables - serendipity and co-working! Get a coffeeshop vibe with "overhearing" (to activate for your team, go to Settings > Team Settings > scroll down for Team Tables) 📱 Mobile (iOS + Android) - Great for walking 1-on-1s! It's a virtual office in your pocket! 📅 Never be late to a Meeting - stay in flow with Meeting Reminders and Auto-Join, and see when your next meeting is at a glance. No more checking Calendar! We've kept the streamlined, minimal desktop app that doesn't get in your way, and improved some of our best-loved features: - Hybrid Calls just work - "Same Room" prevents dreaded audio feedback when some people are in the same physical room. - Celebrate with ✋ High-Five (TM) and 🚀 Emoji rockets. - Get in touch quickly with 👋 Waves, DMs, and ⏰ Notify when free. - Instant interactive screen share - see your teammates cursors and point things out. And you can indeed use Tandem to replace Meet/Zoom (or integrate!): - Calls scale to 30 participants - Multi-platform (mac, windows, linux, iOS, Android) - Virtual backgrounds + blur - For scheduled meetings, Tandem can launch Meet/Zoom and you'll still have the Presence and visibility of Tandem calls. You can see our distilled thoughts on the Virtual Office and Presence here: https://blog.tandem.chat/the-vir...

Hi @rajiv_ayyangar and all the team! We've been using Tandem since almost you started and I'm impressed on how critical it has been for the team to work efficiently. The other impressive thing is how fast the product evolves and I can't wait to try 2.0. Congrats!

We've been using Tandem at Wego Technologies for over 6 months ago and it is a phenomenal way to quickly talk with coworkers and have some of that much missed small talk. Couldn't recommend it more!

Amazing product, we use it at my company and we love it

Hi PH! I'm personally very excited to show off what we've been working on over the past few months. Team tables has been an especially fun new project as we try to re-think what working together virtually should look like. Being able to quickly talk and then go back to working has been great for our team's productivity, and we're excited to share it with your team as well. Special thanks to Rajiv and Bernat for being awesome partners on the journey.

If you never used Tandem do it right now! It is like being at the office but you are at home. What I like the most : - "wave" 👋 at other to seek help without disturbing them - it is sooooo easy to share your screen with others to seek help or demonstrate something - high fives are sooo satisfying Great job @rajiv_ayyangar and the team

Free for small teams, whoop! Tandem is rock-solid. The degree to which performance and reliability has improved over the last year is amazing.

Love it!! Very recommended🤩🤩

I ❤ Tandem. So optimized for work it's lovely. Also the only video / audio software that works when 2 of us are in the same room (it auto adjusts and cancels out background noise and that odd screech and echo that usually happens).

Amazing product for remote or hybrid teams, we have been using it for more than a year and a half, at first only within Product and Tech Team. We choose to expand to the whole company when remote was made compulsory, and it helped us so much communicating ! Thanks Tandem 🖐💙
