Hey Product Hunt, Mohamed here from Brevy! Two years ago, in the middle of the pandemic, @anika_zaman , @conder, and I left our jobs to work on a startup idea. Remote work started out great (and it still is), but it came with its own set of new challenges. Zoom fatigue and keeping up with endless Slack messages really affected productivity and happiness. We realized that for the world of remote work, the current tools just weren’t cutting it. We couldn’t work like this. As a remote team of 8 builders across the US and Europe, we decided to build a product that spoke to the unique workflows of product teams. Brevy is made by remote builders for remote builders. With Brevy, you can record short videos directly from the browser. This pitch might remind you of Loom, and yes, we are similar. But Brevy makes four major improvements: 1. Tech-friendly and focus: The console log and technical information is automatically included 2. Efficient: You can report issues without a video, just an in-browser comment 3. Streamlined: You can share issues with Jira, Linear, and Slack in a single click 4. Detailed: Visual Comments – leave a comment specifically tied to a region in your video Teams use Brevy to - Comprehensively report webapp behavioral issues in less than a minute - Reconciling Figma designs with the final implementation - Getting feedback on a new feature - Reporting small visual bugs in less than 10 seconds We’re still in the early days and have much to learn. If you’re a builder, we’d love to hear how you work, and how you think we could improve Brevy to help you build better products, faster.

@fares_aktouf Thank you!

@anika_zaman @conder @mohamed_abedelmalik The recording process is so intuitive. Also, good to see you can connect it GitHub or Jira - always good to build the bridge between new tools and the ones the team already uses.

Huh, this seems pretty interesting. Where do you think you can get paid Loom users to switch to your product? Thinking about it myself now that I've seen this product, but want to hear it from the makers. :)

Hey @tim_sfiligoj, for a designer like yourself there are a couple main reasons. 1. You can use the annotation tool to capture issues that are too small to warrant a full video. This is done directly on the website. 2. You can more easily receive feedback on your designs with the visual commenting feature. This allows your team to comment directly on pixels in the video.Threaded comments also allow you to have more in-depth conversations. 3. With integrations into Slack and your issue tracking tool, we allow you to easily push issues to ensure they're tracked and progress is being made. At the end of the day, we're focusing on the needs of builders. If there are things you wish you could do as a builder, please let us know! We're building this especially for you!

@mohamed_abedelmalik Hey, thank you. Do you have happy beta users & have seen them stick with your product? Sorry for digging in, but obviously it's difficult to make a switch from such an established product, though I can see where Brevy would help me better.
Mohamed Abedelmalik
@tim_sfiligoj while we’re still a young product, we have found that folks who use Brevy to replace internal meetings with async videos have had a good experience. We started working on Brevy over a year ago with the initial goal of helping teams give and collect product feedback internally. Since then, we’ve also expanded to other communication workflows common to builders.

Interesting idea: redo loom but focus for a specific job title. Congrate on the launch
Anika Zaman
@claire_lacompte Thank you! :) As a remote product team ourselves, we've really been able to feel the benefits of Brevy in our own workflows.

Did you just... copy Bird Eats Bug? Even the logo is the same... Or am I missing any major difference? @mohamed_abedelmalik
Mohamed Abedelmalik
@mikro_mirko we're aware that we look like Bird Eats Bug with a baseball cap on. Funny enough, it was honestly a crazy coincidence when we came across their product. Our logo was actually existing inventory that a designer had been sitting on for a while. The story of how we got here is actually quite interesting. We started off trying to build a collaborative social layer for the internet and realized that people were using our product to collaborate on their own websites instead. The main feedback at the time of our last launch was that we only supported static issue reporting. Users were asking for the same Brevy feature but in video form, hence our current iteration. There are several features we have in common, but quite a few are unique and that's evolving all of the time as we get feedback.
