??What's new at Grapevine this week?

Another week wrapped up here at Grapevine, and it's been a whirlwind of highs, lows, and everything in between. We've faced some frustrating delays with Google Verification—seems like every email they send adds another hoop to jump through. But we're not slowing down. We've been pushing development into high gear and ramping up our prospecting efforts like never before! Enough of that talk --> Let's get to the Product Progress Reports. ??

The Highlights from the Week at Grapevine: The Product Progress Report ??

Google Drive Verification: Our goal is to get pass Google annoying verification process this week so we can push through the big update to our production link. We have Google Drive working great on our staging link - it's literally on Google now. Fingers crossed for a big launch next week!

Human Resources Portal: A minor change to the HR portal feature in our platform, we are changing the section called HR Resources to Company Resource where the Company can store important materials beyond HR documents or policies - this can include Apps as well.

• Anything with a link can be add: Think of Notion links, ClickUp Project Boards, Rippling Policies and the even better part? When you add this link or document, it becomes searchable and savable so the owners of the files can experience less "Can you share that ... with me again?"

Events Directly in Grapevine: While we figure out if Google wants to approve us or not we are working on Google Event creations directly in Grapevine to make it easier for anyone who needs to schedule a Company-Wide event like Company All-Hands, Earnings Calls, etc.

Email Summary Notifications: We are preparing notification email summaries for Grapevine users. Instead of having thousands of notifications distracting your employees with unimportant messages that have nothing to do with them - we say use Slack or MS Teams for the real-time communication and use Grapevine for communicating important information across your teams so they can find the information when they need it. Never miss anything with our email summaries!

We are tirelessly working to improve our development process and speed to delivery. Which includes the integration tools we are reviewing to significantly improve our "play-well" strategies with your favorite tools. Stay tuned!
