We've designed Atlas to help your organisation respond to change with regular communication habits built into the product.
Projects | Goals |
🔔 Project owners will get a reminder weekly on their Friday to put in their weekly updates. | 🔔 Goal owners will get a reminder on the first day of each month for their monthly goal updates. Goal updates are due after a week. |
📰 Project followers get notified of updates weekly on the Monday for the previous weeks updates. | 📰 Goal followers get notified monthly on the 8th of each month. |
How does Atlas work with different users timezones and distributed teams?
All the reminders and digest notifications in Atlas are tailored to close as possible to each individual users timezone.

Project owners in the PST timezone only get their Friday reminders once it's Friday in the PST timezone.

This is what helps us get to the "close as possible Friday", "close as possible Monday" for everyone in your organisation. A workspace admin can click on the ⚙️ icon up the top right > workspace settings. From there they can try to see what central timezone is best selected for people in the organisation:
