Doist

100 employees
Fully Remote

Doist builds productivity software for people who want to work with focus, not friction. Its two products, Todoist, an award-winning task manager, and Twist, an asynchronous team messaging app designed for thoughtful, notification-free communication, come from a company that has been fully remote and async-first since its first hire in 2010.

Doist's Remote Policy

From Doist's careers page (https://doist.com/how-we-work): "We've been a fully remote, async-first team since our first hire in 2010, and we're still just as committed to building the future of work." On location, the page states: "Doisters can work from anywhere in the world. We never place restrictions on locations."

Why Doist

Founded in 2007 by Amir Salihefendic, Doist is profitable and bootstrapped and has never taken venture capital, which lets it build on its own timeline rather than an investor's. That independence shows up in the products: Twist exists specifically to counter the always-on group chat model, structuring conversations around asynchronous, notification-free discussion so teams can protect focused work.

The way Doist operates mirrors what it sells. The team is fully distributed with no operational office, and people design their own schedules around 8-hour days capped at 40 hours a week, working whenever they do their best work. New hires spend an in-person co-working week with a mentor during onboarding, and the whole company gathers for in-person retreats. The company describes itself as having no exit strategy, only a mission to build a future where jobs are borderless.
