Isla — Your hub to easily send and receive structured requests
Isla is a tool that lets you centralize, organize and structure your work requests. It makes it easy to ask for assistance and quick feedback for speedy resolutions without creating useless noise in everybody’s workspaces or interrupting people.

Solves a huge problem that I have with my team. Looking forward to a Basecamp integration.
This is a great idea, but will work better with deep integrations with all other work management tools (Jira, Monday, even slack notifications when someone submitted a request).
I'm a big fan of this, and I've met with Romeo before - love his passion and what he's building! I've asked about features and he's implemented them within a day - he's very passionate about listening to users! And the concept is amazing. I love having one place where people can file requests and then it automatically maps to the right places. It's also nice to broadcast something, for instance right now when I'm limited on bandwidth, it's great to be able to broadcast that in one place when people go to make a request! Looking forward to seeing more iterations and incorporating this with all my workflows!
@ahmetkara Hi Ahmet! As a developer and blog writer, you can use Isla to get structured requests from coworkers (i.e., bug reports or feature requests) and clients (i.e., article requests). You would put your Isla link to your website instead of your email or your LinkedIn, therefore centralizing and structuring the requests that you receive. Check out my Isla here: https://getisla.com/u/romeo
I have seen many apps like this one, but you nailed it! The whole flow shows your great interest and experience in this area. Congratulations on the launch! All you need is to build customer trust in your product :)
Hello Product People!
I built Isla to try to solve three problems at the workplace (and for freelancers) which are detrimental to deep work and productivity:
🔀 People interrupt each other with queries, forcing context switching;
🗣️ These queries are often unstructured and incomplete, causing a back and forth to get more information;
⌛️ Wasting time manually copying requests into a task management tool.
Isla addresses these issues similarly to Calendly for scheduling meetings, instead allowing to centralize and structure inbound requests by:
🔗 Sharing your Isla page to colleagues/clients with a list of types of requests you can handle;
📥 Receiving requests in a structured, controlled, and predictable way, following pre-defined request types formats;
🎯 Integrating with task management tools (Asana and Trello for now), so you don’t have to copy-paste requests anymore.
Let me know in the comments below your honest feedback and if you see it solving these pain points for you.
Signup and use the LAUNCH code to have Isla free forever without limitations!
Cheers 👋🏼
