Double

Even with the best tools, CEOs on average spend 24% of their time on emails, with additional admin tasks like scheduling and team coordination eating up even more valuable time each week. Time they could be spending growing and building their teams, working on high-level strategy, building their network, or simply enjoying much-needed time with friends and family.

That realization led us to start Double in 2018. We wanted to help people focus their time and energy on the things they had the most value doing, and set out to build a flexible, accessible, and efficient support system. By matching executives and their teams with part-time, experienced assistants and empowering them with tools to work better together, we are building towards the vision we laid out at our launch:

1) Humans first. We believe that great delegation stems from strong relationships. We're assembling the best community of executive assistants in the US and France with a wide range of experiences to support growing companies. AI can't get it right all the time, but humans and great software can.
2) Tools to boost delegation. Most people aren’t taught how to delegate, so we're building tools to empower executives to seamlessly share tasks and preferences and learn how to apply delegation best practices. Our tools also help assistants stay on track and operate more efficiently on a daily basis.
3) Accessible for executives and their teams. While Double started as a service and product for CEOs, we are now extending support to all teams. Getting time back to spend on the things that matter is crucial for executives and their company, whether that's just a couple of hours per month or 15h per week.
