Routine 🗓
a way to keep everything organized
setting the scene
to keep track of weekly Zoom and in-person meetings, you keep a calendar up on your computer screen at all times 📆
however, you also need to easily access your meeting notes, email inbox, slack, to-do lists, and miscellaneous documents 📑
by your lunch break, you have so many tabs open on your screen, you contemplate purchasing a few extra monitors 💲🖥

due diligence
what we like
🙋🏽♀️ focused on the individual: Routine helps users simplify the productivity applications they use, organize their tasks with speed, and avoid context switching
📈 market trends: the task management software market in the US alone is expected to reach $4.5b in the next few years
additionally, individuals are trending towards platforms that are easy to use and have everything in one place
💨 quick innovation: Routine is receptive to user feedback and quick to add new features; this demonstrates an understanding of users’ needs
potential risks
🏃♀️ crowded market: while Routine integrates with and consolidates the functionalities of other tools, the company must differentiate and outpace big tech innovation to compete with other tools on the market
👇 d2c: by selling their product to individual users, Routine misses out on enterprise revenue from larger organizations
🔀 onboarding and keeping users: consumers tend to switch productivity tools and methods frequently; what's the company's strategy to retain users?
