Standups
Standups collect completed work, planned work, and blockers before the meeting starts.
How standups work
Each standup starts from current work. Participants review what they completed, what they plan to work on, and what is blocked before or during the meeting.
The goal is a short alignment loop, not a manager-facing status performance. Linked work stays attached so the team can follow up without rebuilding the context in chat.
Standup list
The standups page shows standups you are involved in and standups run by other teams you can observe. Each standup shows the team, schedule, and active state.
Configuration
Team admins configure which days the standup runs, what time it runs in the team's timezone, and whether it syncs with a Google Calendar recurring event. Setup can adopt an existing event time, create a new calendar event, or link an existing one.
The configuration page also shows whether team members have the integrations needed for accurate recaps and standups.
Standups can be enabled, disabled, or deleted from the team page. When Google Calendar is connected, we can keep the recurring event and Meet link aligned with the standup schedule.
For team ownership and admin controls, see Teams. For calendar setup, see Google Calendar.
Waiting room
The waiting room shows when the standup starts, who is expected, who has joined, and the time zones of attendees. Review planned work, mark completed work, and document blockers there before the live meeting starts.
Any team member can start the meeting when the team is ready.
Running the standup
The live standup view shows one participant at a time in the same three-column recap format: worked on, planned, blockers. The sidebar collapses automatically so the current speaker has focus. When the organizer finishes, other participants are redirected back to the standups list.
The speaker view uses the same three recap columns, scoped to the participant. Private todos stay private. Synced work follows the visibility rules of the connected app.
After the meeting, the end view shows duration and attendance. Follow-up should happen on the blocker, initiative, bug, or pull request that needs action.
For async teams, use Slack Standups; for live calls, use Google Meet.
