👋 Hey PH community! Soumya, and Vicky, co-founders of Poised here. We are excited to announce the launch of Poised 2.0, an AI feedback tool for your best meetings yet. Our mission is to help professionals from various fields communicate more effectively and break down the professional barriers that exist due to the way we communicate. Personally, as a non-native English speaker and engineer, I experienced the growing importance of being effective in meetings as I took up leadership roles, but I didn’t see many options to help me. When leaving old jobs, I asked my managers what I could have done better, and it was always about communication - but that feedback felt too late. After months of building and acting on beta-user feedback, we’re proud to share the new Poised with you today! We hope it will help you overcome the barriers in the workplace and improve your communication like it did for us. What scenarios is Poised 2.0 perfect for? 📊📢 Presentations 📞💼 Sales calls and client meetings 🎙️📋 Job interviews and pitches 👔 Executive review meetings 🗺️ Leading team meetings How will Poised 2.0 support you in those meetings? 🪴 See what you could have done better based on your goals for the meeting ✅ Get action-items and key points so you can easily follow-up 🗣️ Get actionable live feedback during calls so you can adjust in the moment 📝 Keep things on track with live speaker notes during meetings 🔮 Be prepared for key meetings by anticipating questions and using ready made templates. Poised is great for executives, founders, product managers, salespeople, consultants, and anyone interviewing for their next role. Poised integrates seamlessly with all your favorite communication tools including Zoom, Google Meet, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. We invite you to try Poised for free and see the difference it makes in your meetings. Thanks for reading, and we know this group’s feedback will be incredibly valuable in continuing to iterate on the product! We also have Special offer for Product Hunt fans: 20% off on our paid offering using code PH20 - Soumya, Vicky and the entire Poised team

Needed exactly this for the workshop I was delivering this morning 😂 There are a ton of feedback tools out there, this is the first time I've come across a real-time one! Congrats on your launch!

Hey Makers! I have just downloaded Poised, so I can't give you a holistic feedback, but I think it is a great tool! My question (after I read the use-cases on the website) is whether I can somehow control the schedule and the actual flow of the meeting. So that to quickly move from point to point without loosing time on unnecessary conversations? Thanks a lot!!

Congrats on the launch. The product looks super helpful. Are there any other metrics or criteria that your product uses to track users' communication skills, except overuse of filler words?

I use Poised everyday! It's a super useful app to help me become a better leader and speaker! It's also helped me practice and refine my pitches before big investor meetings!

Job interviews preparation and actionable plans to improve are just what I've needed all this time. Great job.

Looks awesome 😎 What technology you use behind this? Also what’s the killer feature in your opinion?

This tool looks great. As a customer-facing team member I've struggled to stay focused on meeting topics while also taking meaningful notes and action items. I love that Poised handles it for you (and great name)! I also love that it tells you how many filler words you've used - I'm always trying to improve my meetings and speaking skills. Great product!

Good communication is so important! Congrats on the launch!

Loving the new Poised! I will be interviewing very soon and look forward to using it to supplement my prep work. Definitely believe that it will help me refine my real-time delivery and also master my understanding of the interview content as well. Thanks team poised!!

Love the product and the design! If you don’t mind me asking who actually designed it all?

I like magic

Congrats on such a great launch! Would you allow me to feature your company in my newsletter, Quick Byte? Would love to work together!

Poised 2.0 has been nothing short of amazing in my journey to improve my presentation and communication skills, especially in this digital age.

Thanks for creating this tool. Been using it for 2 months almost every week using the free version. Love the tool so far. Im planning to upgrade if I have more meetings coming up to take full advantage of this tool. What i love: 1. Have the instant feedback is really helpful and know instantly on what i need to improve on the spot. 2. I love the summary the tool provided me at the end of the meeting. 3. Performance metric is really cool and make me want to do better for my next meeting, to beat the numbers. Feedbacks: 1. I prefer the old dashboard with summary of the meeting and performance metric together. 2. Transcript will be more useful if it can record all voices instead of mine alone so I can better review my call.

Great product for self-improvement.

This is great!

Congrats Soumya & team on the launch!

awesome!

I've been a dedicated user of Poised for quite some time, and I cannot emphasize enough how invaluable it has been, especially as a non-native English speaker. It's quite disheartening to receive feedback suggesting to enhance communication - which, frankly, is far from constructive. That's where Poised has been a game-changer for me, with its real-time suggestions that never cease to amaze. Keep moving the needle!
