Hey, I’m Ksusha, product designer at a small remote team where everyone wears multiple hats.
The CEO also develops, I'm as a designer manages marketing and writes specs, the developer juggles several projects at once... and none of us has time to figure out how to use yet another overcomplicated platform just to keep work organized.
🌀 A Day in My Designer Life (Before Dun)
☕️ Morning starts with my boss having a client meeting on Google Meet
📝 He sets a task for me in Shortcut (which we also share with the client)
📩 I get an email notification — because Shortcut has no iOS app (and my inbox is full of spam)
💬 If I have questions, I ping my boss in Slack
🗨 Clients leave feedback… sometimes in Shortcut threads, sometimes in Slack DMs
🖍 Some feedback also lands in Figma comments
📸 If I need to show my boss what the client said, I screenshot messages from 2–3 different apps
🎨 Once I’m done with the designs, I send them to the developer in Slack
🔄 Then either my boss or I set up a dev task in Shortcut and remind the dev about it in Slack
…And that’s not even the full cycle.
We weren’t trying to reinvent the wheel. We just wanted something simple that:
Doesn’t overwhelm you with features
Lets you keep thoughts, tasks, files, and convos in one place
Doesn’t charge per seat, per feature, or per emoji
Just… works
We tried “minimalist” tools, but they either lacked key stuff (like real collaboration), or were simple in design but not in use.
And don’t get me started on onboarding flows that feel like prepping for a space mission.
So we built Dun.
Dun allows you to organize all your work by cards—topics. Everything related to a certain topic is always located in the same place – all docs, tasks, files, and relevant discussions. Work on topics privately, share them with your team or clients, and you can make them private again anytime. Organize your topics into separate workspaces by project. Create as many as you like, no limits.
You can also already use Dun on your phone and add it to your home screen like an app with push notifications.
Dun was created to help small teams and freelancers avoid:
Chaotic, endless chats and tasks that lose sight of the goal
Juggling multiple tools for communication, project and task management, file storage
Losing focus
Endless subscription payments
It’s not perfect — but it’s ours (and maybe yours too?)
We’re still actively using it, testing it, and breaking it. Yeah, some UX still needs love.
But the core is solid — and we use it every day.
If you’re in a small team, freelancing, or just tired of tool overload, maybe Dun can help you too.
