Or, you could just use slack. It has a recurring message thing as well, which you can set on a channel.

Not everyone uses slack. In most mid/large size companies people are still using email. Keyory helps bridge that gap between functional teams using slack and leadership teams using email. Everyone gets to stay in the loop.

Is slack usually associated with start ups and small companies?

For me, yes that’s my experience. Older/bigger companies built communication habits on email and maybe an IM solution. I even see IM fairly underutilized except for “wanna grab lunch?” type conversation or in big offices “got a minute to talk?” for impromptus

Or, just set up recurring reminders on your calendar with the question saved to the calendar entries... for the great price of $0, unlimited questions and recipients

Sounds like an interesting low-tech solution. Can you explain a little more how this works? Is this with Outlook, Google Calendar or something else?

Sure, my pleasure. We use Outlook at work so it's just a matter of clicking on 'Recurrence' on the Ribbon under the Meeting tab and picking your selection.

Don't invite anyone to the meeting, just put whatever info you want to be reminded recurrently in the body of the message or in the Subject and/or Location fields
