Why Cap is the Ideal Daily Standup Software

Cap provides everything Agile teams need for efficient, asynchronous daily standups

1

Async Standup Recordings

Eliminate timezone conflicts by letting team members record their updates when it's convenient. Watch standup videos on your own schedule, focusing only on what's relevant to you.

2

Thread Commenting for Blockers

Team members can discuss blockers or ask questions directly on specific moments in standup recordings, enabling asynchronous problem-solving without additional meetings.

3

Security & Privacy

Ensure sensitive project discussions remain confidential with Cap's open-source approach and custom S3 storage options for complete data ownership and NDA compliance.

4

Time-Saving Daily Updates

Teams save an average of 15-30 minutes daily by replacing synchronous standup meetings with concise, targeted video updates that can be watched at 1.5x or 2x speed.

5

Permanent Standup Archive

Create a searchable record of all daily standups that new team members can reference to quickly understand project history and ongoing work without disrupting the current team.

6

Cross-Platform Accessibility

Works seamlessly on both Mac and Windows, ensuring distributed teams can participate in daily standups regardless of their device preferences or location.

Two Recording Modes for Efficient Standups

Cap adapts to your team's Agile workflow with flexible recording options

Instant Mode for Quick Daily Updates

Perfect for the classic 'what I did yesterday, what I'm doing today, any blockers' format. Record and share in seconds with a simple link that team members can instantly access with built-in commenting for addressing blockers.

Studio Mode for Sprint Reviews

Ideal for more detailed sprint reviews or retrospectives. Create professional-quality standup videos with separate screen and webcam capture to demonstrate completed work or complex blockers that need visual context.

How Agile Teams Use Cap for Daily Standups

Real solutions for common standup meeting challenges

1

Globally Distributed Teams

Team members across multiple time zones record their standups when convenient, eliminating the need to schedule calls at inconvenient hours while maintaining the personal touch of seeing and hearing colleagues.

2

Hybrid Work Environments

Remote and in-office team members enjoy the same standup experience, with recorded updates that can be watched by anyone regardless of their work location, creating an equitable experience for all.

3

Cross-Functional Teams

When multiple teams collaborate, members can focus on updates relevant to their work by watching only select recordings, rather than sitting through an entire synchronous standup with updates that don't affect them.

4

Detailed Blocker Resolution

Team members can demonstrate blockers visually by recording their screen, making it easier for others to understand the issue and provide solutions through timestamped comments.
