We’re excited to announce that AwayFind is now available without a waitlist! Yep, Public Beta is NOW! We’ve made the announcement today in Mountain View, CA while demo’ing at Under The Radar.
While we’ve received a lot of press lately and announced quite a few features, today we want to let more people in to try it. We’ve spent a lot of time listening to our users, and we have a ways to go, but we want to give more people an opportunity to escape their inbox.
As a bit of context to how we got here, here’s a slide from today’s event:
As you can see, AwayFind spun out of a consulting business, and was in fact a side project in response to the needs of both our team and our customers. In 2008, we released a small product (AwayFind 1.0) that got a bit of attention and made us some money. But then we spent some time listening and starting working on a completely new version of AwayFind, which we placed into private beta in November 2009.
In the process of all this, AwayFind went from being a “small thing on the side” from the consulting business to the sole focus of our team.
If you’ve been waiting to try AwayFind, you can signup today.
We’d love your feedback and would be happy to answer any questions—you can email jared at awayfind or Tweet us @awayfind.
