Case Study: Hypercontext builds a stronger remote culture with Donut

Hypercontext keeps a 20-person team 100% remote with Donut

Hypercontext, a remote-first software company previously known as Soapbox, faced the challenge of fostering a strong company culture and maintaining team connections after deciding to permanently close its physical office. The vendor, Donut, was implemented to facilitate these crucial personal connections in a fully remote environment.

Donut provided a solution by automatically pairing team members for bi-weekly one-on-one coffee chats. This initiative, part of a broader strategy that included virtual events and transparent communication, helped Hypercontext reinforce its culture of connection. The results included forging new bonds across teams, making new hires feel integrated, and ensuring non-work conversations remained a priority, which contributed to a positive and trusting remote work environment.
