  • “Finish it and ship it” mode
    Mar 7 2025

    The Userlist team is wrapping a couple of product stuff up. Benedicte and her Pirate family are testing a new sport.

    With the first quarter of the year almost coming to an end, Benedikt and the Userlist team are working on finishing and shipping a couple of projects including their transactional messages API. He’s also figured out how to do partial date matches (hint: leap years make it complicated).

    Benedicte has been productive in the past few weeks: Galleon.tools is now live, she coded a new booking flow for Whee, and they just had the best month ever at Outseta. She also talks a bit about being filmed for a video that’s coming out this week, and the Pirate family’s new activity.

    Mentioned in the episode:

    • Galleon - Unlock the treasure of user data on your Webflow site
    • Outseta’s best month ever

  • The silver lining of a cancellation
    Feb 20 2025

    Benedicte feels recharged. Benedikt shares the bright side of a customer cancellation.

    After the crazy beginning to her year, Benedicte is feeling recharged and productive. With the support load down, she finally released the article on WeWeb + Outseta and a companion expansion guide to the integration. Benedicte and Ola are also working on their latest project, Galleon.

    It’s been pretty busy on the product-side for the Userlist team: they shipped company trigger support for nodes and the first version of the transactional messages endpoint and UI. With the product continuously evolving, Benedikt and Jane are thinking about doing a UI redesign of the platform. And while a customer cancellation is a bummer, Benedikt shares the bright side of the situation.

    • Galleon - Unlock the treasure of user data on your Webflow site
