Details
Noko (formerly Freckle) is time tracking that doesn’t suck. Built by Amy Hoy who bootstrapped it to over $1M ARR while also running 30x500 and Stacking the Bricks. The UX is genuinely pleasant, which matters when you need people to actually log their time.
Whereby is video calls without the download dance. Just share a link, people click, they’re in. Founded by Ingrid Ødegaard, grew organically to customers in 175 countries. Great for quick calls where you don’t want to make people install yet another app.
