Project Manda

Project Manda is a time optimization tool. An enterprise meeting analytics platform that connects to Google Calendar, Slack, Teams, Zoom and Microsoft AD to measure meeting cost and quality, then coaches staff toward cheaper, better run and less fatiguing meetings.

Project Manda is an AI meeting performance platform aimed at organisations that want to understand and reduce the cost of how their people spend time together. It sits behind the scenes, connects to the calendar and communication tools a company already uses, and turns meeting activity into a picture of organisational performance: what meetings cost, how well they are run, and whether the trend line is moving in the right direction. The product positions itself as a kind of Chief Meeting Officer, nudging staff toward better habits rather than simply logging attendance. The recommendation engine is the core of the product. Manda's assistant sends people ongoing best practice tips on structuring meetings, protecting colleagues' time and clarifying actions. It flags expensive patterns such as recurring sessions and oversized attendee lists, and the company claims these interventions cut meeting costs by around 10%. It also watches stakeholder availability, suggesting a reschedule when a key person cannot attend, and spreads out back to back bookings so decision quality does not suffer from fatigue. Attendee feedback is collected and returned as anonymous coaching, which is intended to create accountability without publicly calling anyone out. The buyer here is not an individual. Manda is built for enterprise deployment, with a leadership audience that cares about productivity, retention and return on investment, and it names Domain, Zendesk, Snowflake, Netflix and Salesforce among the organisations shown on its site. Because the value depends on organisation wide visibility, the tool makes most sense for companies large enough that meeting load is a genuine line item, and for people operations or chief data officers who need evidence rather than anecdote. It occupies a different slot from transcription assistants that summarise what was said. Manda is less about capturing content and more about measuring behaviour and cost across the whole calendar. The trade off is that it is an overlay on existing tools rather than a replacement for them, and its usefulness scales with how much of the company actually connects.
