Why We Created Locator

After we humans (mostly) returned to the office post-COVID, a Harris Poll survey of 1,043 knowledge workers found that employees spend an average of two hours per day — roughly 25% of the workweek — just searching for documents, information, or people they need to do their jobs. I can’t solve the finding people part of the problem, but I can address locating documents and other digital information more effectively.

My name is Dave Nelsen, and two things position me well to address this problem.
