Whatis is a knowledge management Slack application that makes it easy to organize your company’s jargon, acronyms, terms, and more.
Hugo, Mitchell, and Aaron – the 3 co-founders of Whatis, all onboarding remotely to new jobs during the pandemic and were shocked at how much company-specific jargon was used so freely. They all experienced moments of awkwardness, having to interrupt a meeting to ask what something meant.
Today, many companies rely on external wikis and spreadsheets to house a glossary of their terms. Whatis approaches this differently by ensuring knowledge is easily accessible right where companies spend the majority of their time, in Slack. The process of creation and retrieval of information is interactive, which further encourages the upkeep of information.
With Whatis you can ensure that your employees never are wondering “what does XYZ mean?” and have the context and information to do their jobs. This is especially useful for new joiners to your team, and can help get them up-to-speed more quickly. Our customers of reported increased feeling of inclusion and improved efficiency amongst their employees.
Whatis has a generous free trial to see if the service is right for you. Feel free to email Aaron directly at [email protected]. We look forward to learning more about you!
