Building in stealth

Build in private. Share the whole story when you launch.

Underway turns your answers into a finished video or podcast, and every episode stays private in your vault. When you launch, share them all at once, in order, on any paid plan.

IN THE VAULT

Recorded, edited and numbered. Nobody sees them until you launch. Examples, made with AI.

How it works

Three steps. None of them is editing.

01

Underway reads your day.

Connect your calendar, GitHub or sales, or add a voice note. It suggests what to talk about.

Setting up an episode: What kind of episode?, the Interview card lit and marked the usual
02

You answer.

It asks out loud, one question for each thing you picked, and you answer each for as long as it takes.

03

Your episode is ready.

Minutes later: captioned, numbered, in the order you said it. Keep it private or post it.

It remembers

It remembers what you said last time.

Each interview picks up where the last one stopped:

“At the end of Episode 0 you said: ‘I’m going to see if this edits after this recording. If it doesn’t, I’m still going to post it.’ So what happened when you watched Episode 0 back?”

Asked in episode 1 of Building Underway, our founder’s own series.

So what happened when you watched Episode 0 back?

WHAT IT READS

  • GitHubWhat you shipped today: commits and pull requests.
  • Google CalendarWho you met, and the meeting that ran over.
  • Zoom, Fathom, FirefliesWhat came out of the call. It shapes the questions, never the episode.
underway

Reads your day, keeps what you said, and asks about what mattered.

  • Picks the few things that matter to what you’re working towards
  • Remembers every episode, so it follows up on last week
  • Asks one question at a time, out loud

Private to you. Read, fix or delete anything it keeps.

  • Gmail, or any inboxForward an email and it becomes part of today.
  • StripeThe day’s sales, as they come in.
  • LinearThe issues you moved and closed today.

WHERE IT FINDS YOU

  • SlackWhen something ships, it asks there: worth an episode? One tap.
  • WhatsAppThe same nudge on your phone. Yes, not now, or tell it more.

You’ll never edit a video

Answer the questions. Tap done. Get back to work.

Everything an editor would do, done for you in your brand, set once.

  • ✓Your title look opens every episode, in your colour and your typeface.
  • ✓On Series it opens on your intro, or a moment from later on, with music under it, then your logo.
  • ✓Share your screen and you sit in the corner, talking it through.
  • ✓Ums, false starts and long pauses come out. The sound is cleaned and levelled.
  • ✓It closes on the next episode's number and where to find the series.
  • ✓Then a cover, a title people search for, the posts for every network, and Shorts.

Your original recordings are always yours to download.

The rules

Things we will never do.

01

We never shuffle your answers around to make your video catchier.

02

We never add words you didn’t say.

03

Your episode is only you: no fake clips, no generated pictures. Our AI examples say so.

04

We never record without you pressing the button.

05

We never pick your questions to chase views.

06

We never lock up your recordings. You can download them on every plan.
