Async

Asynchronous discovery

Understand a project together, at everyone's own pace.

Async helps facilitators gather what stakeholders know and think without scheduling another call. Participants open a private link, answer by text or voice, and the answers feed a shared summary that stays tied to what people actually said.

How it works

  1. Ask

    A facilitator sets up a project and writes the questions, in rounds, with follow-ups where they help.

  2. Answer

    Each participant gets a private, mobile-friendly link. No account is needed. They answer in text or by voice, skip what does not apply, and come back later.

  3. Understand

    The facilitator reads the responses in one place and maintains a shared summary that participants can review and correct.

What you get

Private links, no sign-up

Each participant gets their own link that opens only their project. Links can be revoked or regenerated.

Text or voice

Participants type or record an answer from their phone, or upload an audio file if recording is not available.

Return and revise

People can skip questions, come back later, and add corrections without losing what they said before.

Rounds and follow-ups

Publish a first set of questions, then follow-up rounds, some shown only depending on earlier answers.

One place to read

See who answered what, by question or by person, and play the original recordings.

A shared summary

Maintain a summary that participants can read and correct, so the picture stays grounded in what was said.

Questions

Do participants need an account?

No. They open the private link they were sent, on a phone or a computer.

Can people answer by voice?

Yes. They can record in the browser or upload an audio file, and the facilitator can play it back.

Is the summary written by AI?

The summary is maintained by the facilitator. Participants can read it and send corrections.

Who is Async for?

Facilitators, consultants and teams who need to learn from several stakeholders without coordinating everyone's calendar.
