How Daily Check-Ins Fix Remote Work


Episode 7: How Daily Check-Ins Fix Remote Work

Jordan Metzner and Sam Nadler share a simple but powerful internal tool: a Slack-integrated daily check-in system that’s helped their remote team stay accountable, async, and aligned. It’s lightweight, fast, and has changed how their team shares progress. Then they revisit Clay, a thoughtfully designed relationship management tool that helps founders and operators stay in touch without the CRM bloat. In the news, they break down the latest on GPT-5 Pro, OpenAI’s rumored “research-grade” AI, and what the new product tiers might mean for the future of AI.
