Benefits

A short and on-point asynchronous check-in with just three questions! Help your teammates stay on track throughout the project in the least intrusive way possible, all while monitoring concerns and resolving them on the spot.

How to add this template

It's a simple 3-step process:

1. Select the Quick Check-in from the templates page

2. Include your teammates from the Participants block

3. Select a broadcast channel to post reports

✨ Auto-save drafts

As you configure your standup, Geekbot periodically saves your changes. You'll see an indicator displaying the most recent save timestamp, so you'll know exactly when your changes were secured.

This way, you can take your time perfecting the standup without worrying about losing any adjustments and avoiding sending notifications to your team.

πŸ™ Publish

When everything looks good, simply publish your standup. This action will alert your team to the new standup and let them know the timing of their first prompt.


Best practices

  1. Keep the report short!

  2. Enable the engagement summary to nudge your team to report on time.

  3. Adjust the time zone setting so that everyone gets to report at a suitable hour.

  4. Check the insights tab in your Geekbot dashboard for an overview of team progress.

  5. Variables ({name}, {hello}, etc.) are a nice way to personalize your standups, so feel free to use them in your intro and outro messages.
