SoWork Feature List

Meetings in SoWork

The core of the SoWork virtual office experience: simply walk up to another teammate to connect over a video or audio call! As long as both teammates are set to "Available" they'll connect and have a meeting. From there you can invite others, launch your many meeting tools, convert the meeting to private, and much more.

SoWork brings screenshare to the fold with all the bells and whistles you'd expect: multiple screenshares, emoji reactions, raise hand, and more.

Meeting Recordings are a great way to enhance productivity and save time and money across your team. You can record your video meetings and share the recording with attendees or Teammates who were unable to attend.

Why Remote Teams Love SoWork 💜

Christopher S
CEO

SoWork has played a crucial role in bringing our team closer together. One of the key factors for us was giving each team member the opportunity to create their own unique and engaging work environment. With SoWork, it's incredibly easy for team members to connect online, collaborate, and engage with one another.

Jana E
Strategy and Innovation Specialist

SoWork has not only heightened the hybrid work experience, it has surpassed it. Today, there are many features on the platform that I wish we had in real-life. These are so good and make so much sense that we even tried to implement some of these features in our physical office.

Russell S
Developer Relations Manager

SoWork’s AI note-taking tool is just a game-changer. This feature automatically takes notes during meetings and transcribes them for easy reference later on.

These automated meeting summaries save time and ensure that important information is not missed, and action items are automatically created.

Morgan T
MD-PhD Candidate at Harvard

I've had phenomenal coworking and also social experiences on SoWork - night and day from remote work on Zoom because interactions among teammates feel so much more natural and spontaneous.

In my experience the SoWork team is also super-responsive to feedback and needs of customers.

Diego T
Mid-Market Business Owner

SoWork is stable and offers great audio and video quality.

Emily F
Investor, Mama, Wife

SoWork bridges the gap between physical distance to bring teams closer and foster a sense of of unity, engagement, and productivity.

I wholeheartedly recommend SoWork to anyone seeking to elevate their remote work experience.
