Love the concept. I wish there were a way to add custom integrations for in-house software we use or uncommon systems we use. It would work better if these things were configured at the organization-level and not user-level (i.e. IT connecting Confluence to Needl instead of individual users requesting access one-by-one).

Typo on the pricing page: "and soon to be may others", I assume meant "many".

Would love to try but my daily driver is a Linux machine. I just don't spend enough hours a week on my Macbook for it to be relevant right now. Edit: I'll try the Chrome extension.

Edit: The hover for "Free for 14 days" in the pricing page is black-on-black unless you hover exactly on the text. Webflow hover styling is awful, happens to me often too :)

Understand where you're coming from on the org-level auth vs individual. Part of the goal with Needl is to be entirely self-serve, where one member of a team can use it without needing company wide approval.

Thanks for calling out the site issues -- will get those fixed asap!

If one member of a team is meant to be able to just use it without IT being involved, don't you foresee companies getting very cranky about an employee uploading all their work documents, emails, etc. to an external cloud they don't control?
Certainly happens - in this case IT usually contacts the employee, who connects us with IT and then we share our SOC II / describe our security processes and they grant us company wide access. Ends up not being a massive problem, but the added benefit on an employee / individual being able to self-serve offsets it, in our mind at least.

At some point, we'll likely kick off an enterprise-focused initiative. Thanks for bringing this up, very good points.

I just emailed you for help. When trying to self-serve, I immediately got blocked by automated corporate policies :)
Yup! Hopefully the workaround I sent was easy enough -- please let me know if there's anything else I can help with!
