Video Communication Web App

Volley is an app for asynchronous communication that allows users to send each other short videos, called “Volleys.” It aims to facilitate team communication faster than Slack or email with fewer interruptions than a meeting. In addition to video, users can send text and photos.

Volley piloted their iOS mobile app in the Fall of 2020, amidst Covid-19, as a way to help teams meet less and get more done.

Before Volley, team collaboration consisted of drawn-out, in-person meetings and long, context-less emails. The Volley mobile app allowed users to create virtual teams and record short, threaded video messages using their phones.

Recognizing that the future of work is flexible and distributed, Volley tasked Atomic with creating the Volley desktop app. The desktop app allows Volley users to communicate cross-platform.

The mobile app speaks to Volley's idea of the spontaneous work style of the future. But the desktop app enables a workflow that aligns with the current state of work— users who are already sitting at their desks but want to get more done.

When brought together, the desktop app and mobile app allow teams to work wherever, while getting the benefits of face-to-face conversations without the challenges of traditional meetings.
