Beans is a tool to help employees connect with each other at work. Every week it helps match and schedule a short 30-minute 1:1 meeting for two employees at your company.
Check out this blog post!
- Hands-off, simple, expandable meeting scheduling system.
- Scheduling is a hard problem, by providing a time that people can opt-in, you are simplifying the matching problem by not taking into consideration each person's schedule. Instead you just have to match people based on their preferences for the week.
- You can have multiple subscriptions at a time and you can whitelist who can see the subscriptions through setting up specific rules for each subscription.
- Low/ No cost
- Beans is a Google App Engine low bandwidth/low memory application, this means that costs are either minimal or nothing. Currently this is $0 recurring for Yelp.
- Ensures the maximal match and no re-matching based on a specific time frame. Maximal, meaning no more people could have been matched.
