🐶 Kona - the AI sidekick for remote managers.

Our founding team bonded over prior bad experiences with remote work. We knew work could be better, healthier, and happier.

So we turned to experts. We've interviewed 1500+ remote managers since January 2020, and coached dozens of managers ourselves.

Their pain was loud and clear. Managing a remote team is hard. It’s difficult to be a great leader, and managers are overworked and under-resourced. They need support.

We built 🐶 Kona to help remote managers be great leaders without changing how they work. Kona empowers leaders to manage their teams with the right balance of empathy and accountability, while saving them time in the process!

Kona is an AI-powered sidekick for every remote manager. It integrates with your company’s internal content, performance review platform, calendar, and more to operate as each manager’s personal management copilot. It helps managers prepare for 1:1s, take notes, develop and grow their team, give effective feedback, build engagement, and drive long-term success – all without needing to leave Slack.
