Voice for Standups

Dictate your daily standup update in 30 seconds instead of typing it out. Get a clear summary of yesterday, today, and blockers every morning.

The Problem

Async standups are great for remote teams, but writing them every day feels repetitive and tedious. People either skip them, write useless updates like 'same as yesterday,' or spend too long crafting the perfect summary. The value of standups drops when they become a chore.

The Solution

Ummless lets you speak your standup update in under a minute. Just ramble about what you did and what you're planning; the Slack Message preset distills it into a concise yesterday/today/blockers format that your team can scan in seconds.

Before & After

Raw Transcript

Yesterday I um worked on the onboarding flow, specifically the part where users set up their profile. I got the form working but the image upload is still broken. Today I'm going to fix that image upload thing and uh also start on the notification preferences page. I'm kind of blocked on the design for notifications though because the designs aren't in Figma yet.

Refined Output

**Yesterday:** Built the profile setup form for the onboarding flow. Image upload still needs work. **Today:** Fix the image upload bug, then start on the notification preferences page. **Blocked:** Waiting on Figma designs for the notifications page.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long should I speak for a standup update?

30 to 60 seconds is ideal. Speak naturally about what you did and plan to do. Ummless will trim it down to the essentials.

Can I create a custom standup format for my team?

Yes. Create a custom preset with your team's preferred standup structure. Some teams use categories beyond the standard three, and a custom preset can accommodate that.
