Dear colleagues, I am very excited to present to you a new application that I have developed in my spare time. The app is called Background. This app provides a background video connection with colleagues. It creates a sense of privacy, so you can leave the video turned on and work close to each other. You can use it to mentor new hires remotely in real-time, build trust with them, and keep your team close. I have developed this app because I love remote work. Asynchronous remote work is great. But it feels lonely and complicated to work this way. This app is intended to fill the gap and introduce a real-time mutual video connection that would bring teammates closer.
