Hope this does not come across as self-serving, but I think it is relevant to the discussion.

We have built a product around what we call "Deep Collaboration". Deep Collaboration is fundamentally asynchronous in nature. The term is derived from Cal Newport's book on Deep Work.

Deep Collaboration allows teams to collaborate asynchronously thus enabling Deep Work (which group chat basically kills). If you read his book (highly recommended btw) you will see how individuals (and organizations) can produce transformative results via Deep Work. Unfortunately, his solutions to actually obtaining the uninterrupted time required for Deep Work is unrealistic in today's collaborative environments.

That's where Deep Collaboration comes in. https://tmail21.com.

Would love any feedback from the HN community.
