I have used Speakeasy in beta, it's really simplified my communication with my clients and partners and has helped streamline my workflow. I use it to set up projects, share large files and get consensus and quick feedback to move projects along. Less waiting for emails before I action things! I like the share link where I can onboard people straight into a topic and I feel like it helps support my relationship building with clients and my team. Its super easy and intuitive to use and requires 1-2 minutes to get productive on it. Very useful!
I was fortunate enough to get early access to Speakeasy and I have been evaluating where it sits compared to email, instant messenger apps, collaboration tools, etc. For individuals, companies and even industries that have avoided or missed the boat on older communication tools like Teams and Slack, Speakeasy is the obvious starting point. It is far easier to use than those tools. It is immediate and instinctive to use. So my message to the productivity laggards of the world, give Speakeasy a go, it's simple, your team will love it, your clients will love it and if nothing else, you'll love what it does to your email inbox.
Speakeasy has made client onboarding faster (my primary use case at the moment). I'm often a member of cross-functional teams that work on growth projects. With a tool like Speakeasy we can move quickly, stay on the call in the background for feedback and not jump into a workspace that feels bloated and full of notifications on conversations that I had no real say in joining. With Speakeasy I can better organise conversations that are relevant to me and my work with fewer notifications.
What I'd like to see more of in future is how it can help me move email threads into a topic. There's probably a few email threads in my inbox that I can convert to topics in this and everyone already knows each other. For now I'll copy and paste them in and use the subject line but maybe a chrome extension could be handy.
