What is Async Management?
Async Management is a simple alternative to traditional 1-on-1 or standup meetings. Gone are the never ending days of "still working on it". Through Contractor/Employee driven status updates, business leaders can maintain an up-to-date project pulse.
Problem
Users rely on traditional 1-on-1 or standup meetings to track remote contractor progress, leading to time-consuming coordination and delayed updates due to mismatched schedules and inconsistent communication.
Solution
A project management tool enabling asynchronous status updates, where contractors proactively share progress, allowing leaders to monitor projects in real-time without scheduling meetings. Example: Contractors submit updates via text/video, and managers view aggregated timelines.
Customers
Business leaders, startup founders, and project managers overseeing remote teams or freelancers, particularly those in tech or digital industries requiring frequent contractor collaboration.
Unique Features
Contractor-driven updates replace manager-led check-ins, automated timeline tracking, and centralized project pulse visibility without meetings.
