 We're continually interested in helping people to communicate in a better way.
 
-**Nate:** I think the communication piece is really interesting. There are times when you want a bunch of people together to share ideas, working on a board. It's really valuable letting everyone get involved, to build consensus, but on the flip side; working in isolation can be really valuable too, to explore ideas, to think through things. And I think that that's something we've especially had to think about with our docs product, is that as you're typing and you have half finished thoughts that is a very personal experience. And so that's something that is interesting to balance, like the collaboration and the communication as you're working on something together, but then asynchronously, what does it look like to share your ideas, get some feedback, you know, go back into Whimsical and reply to that and work through.

-**Oliver: Do you find that you Dogfood, do you like use your own tool quite a lot? Because it seems like it would be really valuable for exactly what you're talking about.**

-**Jānis:** Yeah, we use it. I want to say most of Whimsical runs on Whimsical and a lot of the tools or things that we actually have, we built because we said that we needed them, but we actually wanted to just have them tailored to how we like to work. For example, the stickies, were introduced because we recognised that there are times when you want to sort your stacks.
-So we built a lot of tools to facilitate how we thought it would be neat to work. So yes, we're dog-fooding most of the work that happens within Whimsical.

-**Jon: It seems like it's been successful. You're now five years in and there are a lot of companies using it. Obviously your intuitions about how such a tool should work have proven correct so far.**

 **Jānis:** I think that early on in Whimsical's existence many of the engineers and people were talking to said that there was already a hundred different whiteboard tools or a hundred different diagram tools. My response was always there's space for a hundred and one.
