Visual Office was designed o help teams working remotely better navigate and understand their virtual workspaces. The tool provides a visualization of each member of a team, so employees will know if a coworker is in the "break room," in the "lunchroom" or focused in a "silent zone." Users can project their status alongside their virtual desk, for example, a "do not disturb status" status. This makes it easier for coworkers to know when its acceptable to chat with coworkers without breaking their "flow."
Visual Office can be integrated through the Slack app and is ideal for smaller teams between 5 and 50 employees to stay connected while working from home.
