Allison Yazdian took over as CEO of Uscreen in June 2025, as the video SaaS platform entered a new growth phase. Founder PJ Taei moved into an executive chairman role, and a December chief-of-staff job ad confirmed the company’s “fully remote, bootstrapped, and profitable” setup. Uscreen reports 13,000 creators, nearly $1 billion in GMV, and over 8 billion minutes streamed.

Brian de Haaff co-founded product software company Aha! in 2013 and has operated it as a fully remote company with no headquarters ever since. A December 2025 blog post reaffirmed the team’s “totally distributed” setup, noting that connection comes through digital rituals and on-sites. The company has scaled to over $100 million in revenue and serves more than a million product builders worldwide without salespeople or office space.

What if your work actually gave you energy back? That’s the thread we follow with Mary Alice Duff, a fractional COO who left a decade in social work, built a clothing brand the hard way, and now runs a profitable, remote-first practice from the south of France—without burning herself or her clients out. We talk about the real operations work founders rarely admit: pricing that quietly destroys margins, teams without clarity, and systems that leak time and money. Mary Alice opens her playbook for turning that mess into momentum.

Today I take a close look at Jitbit, a small, remote SaaS company that’s been shipping since 2005 without the frantic energy that drains so many teams.

 Instead of chasing headcount or headlines, they’ve built a business on clarity,  ownership, and a steady pace and they serve customers around the world, including large enterprises.

I break down the mechanics of a remote culture designed on purpose: clear roles so work moves without constant approvals, asynchronous communication that replaces meeting overflow with thoughtful documentation, and a trust-first approach that removes the need for micromanagement. You’ll hear how a lean team uses experience and judgment to make better decisions, protect attention, and maintain quality.

In this episode of the Remote Work Life podcast, I look at how Parabol operates as a fully remote business. They’ve shaped their culture and day-to-day work around distance, time zones, and flexibility, not as an add-on, but as the foundation of how they function.

Parabol seems to approach communication differently from many companies, and the way they organise their week suggests a conscious effort to protect focus rather than fill calendars. Their hiring philosophy also hints at a distinctive view of what makes someone a good fit for a distributed team, and the way they handle compensation raises some interesting questions about fairness across locations.

In this episode of the Remote Work Life Podcast, I’m joined by Ben Davis, Co-Founder of Saxbury, a long-time specialist in serviced apartments, aparthotels, and flexible accommodation. 

Ben has spent more than two decades working across corporate housing, relocation, and property advisory, and he’s one of the clearest voices I’ve met on how the accommodation landscape is shifting for businesses.

I ask Ben why finding the right place to live and work is still far harder than it should be, even for experienced travellers. Ben breaks down the real differences between serviced apartments, aparthotels, co-living, and short-term rentals, and explains why the “just book an Airbnb” approach often falls short when someone needs reliability, safety, decent Wi-Fi, and a proper work setup.

We also talk about what companies actually look for when booking long-stay accommodation, how professionals’ needs have changed post-COVID, and why landlords and agents are slowly adapting to a workforce that moves differently. Ben also touches on the growing demand for work-ready spaces and how developers are rethinking underused buildings to meet it.

If you’ve ever struggled to book accommodation that fits the way you or your team work, this conversation will make the whole landscape much clearer.

In this episode, I talk about NIRA’s journey through the lens of a fully remote business — not the tech, but the trust behind it. Founders Hiten Shah and Marie Prokopets built NIRA as a remote-first team from day one, learning that success depends on clarity, documentation, and communication — not constant oversight. Their story shows how transparency and listening can shape both culture and product. It’s a reminder that remote work isn’t just about flexibility; it’s about designing systems where people feel trusted, informed, and accountable. That’s what makes a remote business truly sustainable.
