Our Journey

Built for presence, powered by empathy

How Nuan started

Twenty days, fifteen coffees, and a lot of “me too”

Nobody we spoke to asked for a better meeting tool. They described the same handful of moments: wanting to speak up and not knowing when, saying “like” one time too many, leaving a call unable to tell whether it had gone well.

None of it was about speaking better. All of it was about being heard. That is what Nuan is for, and it is why the cues stay quiet and get out of the way.

A native app that makes presence effortless

Nuan runs quietly in the background across Zoom, Google Meet, FaceTime, Slack, Teams and beyond. It gives you real-time cues so you can stay present, not self-conscious.

The door is open. If any of this sounds like your week, we would like to hear about it.
