24 alternatives to AirSend – Simple Collaboration for Professionals and Teams

Hey, This is Venkat and Esther here. We did a Show HN for AirSend 6 months ago - thank you again for your support! Since then the product has come a long way. We’ve added many major functionalities based on feedback and wanted to share those with you today. As a reminder, AirSend (www.airsend.io) lets you instantly collaborate. Send messages, have voice/video calls, share and organize files, manage tasks, and keep notes all in one place. AirSend could potentially replace Slack, Dropbox, and Trello for small teams. It’s our moonshot attempt to redefine how teams communicate and…

    Hi HN friends! We can hardly believe it’s been almost four years since our original HN launch (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25917403). What started as a small project has grown way beyond what we imagined, with over 170,000 deployments and 7,000 companies using Airbyte daily. When we started Airbyte, our mission was simple (though not easy): to solve data movement once and for all. Today feels like a big step toward that goal with the release of Airbyte 1.0 (https://airbyte.com/v1). Reaching this milestone wasn’t a solo effort. It’s taken an incredible…

    A few days ago, I responded to a comment by bloggergirl offering to read anyone's web copy and help. I shot off an email hoping for a paragraph or two of feedback on my startup's copy. Instead I received a professional, detailed deck of tons of invaluable well thought out feedback. It must have taken her an entire afternoon. Here's a link to it: http://www.slideshare.net/shereefb/recommendations-for-bettermeans To top it off, this isn't someone with a lot of free time on her hands, she's only days away from launching her own startup (page99test) This community blows my mind!

    Hi HN! I'm Kam, the founder and one of the authors of Linen. Today, we are launching Linen.team (https://linen.team/), a lightweight threaded messaging app for your team. Modern workplace messaging apps (like Slack) are based on IRC, which is great for small groups, but as it scales, breaks down quickly: you either get overwhelmed by notifications or you have to turn them all off. Most chat apps have threads tacked on but aren't built from the ground up with this design in mind. We wanted to create a thread-first experience where you can organize and prioritize conversations…

    Hi HN, A few of our team members at Airbyte (and Joe, who killed it!) recently played with building our own internal support chat bot, using Airbyte, Langchain, Pinecone and OpenAI, that would answer any questions we ask when developing a new connector on Airbyte. As we prototyped it, we realized that it could be applied for many other use cases and sources of data, so... we created a tutorial that other community members can leverage [http://airbyte.com/tutorials/chat-with-your-data-using-opena...] and the Github repo to run it…

    Hey HN, We've just launched our team collaboration platform where we're bringing together all the important tools under one app. We've been frustrated in the past with tools which had a huge disconnect between projects and chat. It always inevitably leads to teams using external chat apps for "project management" and then abandoning the main tools altogether. We're creating tools we hope teams will stick with. Super integrated Chat. Convert comments to tasks and have them auto added to project boards. Automations to help massively reduce burden on the team. Workflows, Time-Off and so much…

    Hi HN, I’m Phil, one of the co-founders building emdash. Previously, I was an early engineer at Facebook and led Customer Products at Square. We’ve focused on making chat and video work together so distributed teams can stay aligned without drowning in information. You can try it here: https://emdash.io. It frustrated us how easily important conversations would happen and then disappear. Slack never quite matched how we worked. Channels were too coarse which led to noisy notifications and broken search. Zoom meetings weren’t much better–unless someone took perfect notes (which…
