"44% of our team says they don't have clarity on priorities. We have three status meetings a week."
You're a PM.
You need to keep everyone informed: engineering, design, leadership, stakeholders.
So you schedule meetings.
Standups.
Syncs.
Status updates.
Check-ins.
Your calendar fills with alignment meetings.
Your team's calendars fill too.
Everyone spends hours in meetings about work instead of doing work.
And somehow, 44% of employees still say they don't have clarity on priorities.
72% don't fully understand company strategy.
44% of employees lack clarity on company priorities
74% of remote workers prefer async communication
50% more likely that async updates actually get consumed
5+ hours/week average time lost to unnecessary status meetings
Every status meeting is time your team could have spent building.
From "let's sync" to "watch when you can"
Before ngram
- It's Monday. You have three update meetings scheduled: engineering standup, stakeholder sync, and leadership check-in. That's 2.5 hours of your day. Plus prep time. Plus follow-up messages for people who couldn't attend.
- Half the engineering team is in a different time zone. They dial in at 6am or miss the meeting entirely. Stakeholders join late and ask you to repeat what you covered. Leadership is multitasking through the whole thing.
- By Tuesday, nobody remembers the specifics. You answer the same questions in Slack that you answered in the meeting. The information existed for an hour, then evaporated.
After ngram
- Same Monday. But this time you spend 15 minutes recording a 5-minute update video. You share your screen, walk through priorities, highlight blockers, celebrate wins.
- You post it in Slack. Engineering in Europe watches it when they start their day. Leadership watches it during lunch. Stakeholders watch it before their next planning meeting.
- Everyone sees the same update. They watch at 1.5x speed if they're busy. They rewatch the part about priorities when they need a reminder. The information persists. Your calendar has three fewer meetings. Your team has three more hours of focus time.

Polished team updates from a quick recording
Ngram transforms your casual update recording into a polished video that keeps your entire team aligned without requiring synchronous time.
Record your weekly update
Share your screen with your project board or roadmap. Walk through priorities, progress, and blockers. Talk like you're updating a colleague, not presenting to a boardroom. Ngram removes the ums, tightens the pacing, and produces a professional update in minutes.
Or create quick context videos
Need to explain a decision? Provide context on a change? Record a 2-minute video instead of writing a long Slack message. Ngram polishes it and makes it easy to share. Video conveys tone and nuance that text can't match.
Either way, your team stays informed without losing hours to meetings. Updates that get watched. Alignment that sticks.
What changes when pm internal update take minutes
Give your team hours back every week
Replace recurring status meetings with async video updates. Your team gets focus time back. You get time back. Deep work becomes possible again when calendars aren't full of syncs.
Reach every time zone equally
Async video doesn't care about geography. Teams in Europe, Asia, and the US all get the same update. Nobody dials in at 6am. Nobody misses critical context because of scheduling conflicts.
Information that persists and compounds
Meetings evaporate. Videos persist. New team members can watch historical updates. Anyone can rewatch when they need a reminder. Your communication compounds instead of disappearing.
89% of remote employees feel more connected
Video creates connection that text can't. Your team sees your face, hears your voice, picks up on tone. Async video maintains human connection without requiring synchronous time.
