How it works
Before standup
Spinach reminds you to prep in Slack. Each person enters their updates in Spinach.
During standup
Spinach rotates through each person so there’s no fumbling with “who goes next.”
You can see each person’s update and how long they’ve been speaking.
Have something to discuss? Add it to Team Topics and Spinach will bring it up at the end to keep things moving.
After standup
Spinach keeps a summary and automatically posts it to Slack. You’ll have a record of all of your previous standups in the app.
