Frequently Asked Questions About Buildremote
What is the purpose of Buildremote?
I (Henry) started Buildremote as a way to help people run fully remote companies that maximize productivity, employee happiness, and profitability.
I ran a fully remote company for six years before starting Buildremote. Everything I learned on the job led me to build what I call, “The Remote Operating System.” It’s a framework companies can use to build remote companies.
Who started Buildremote?
Henry O’Loughlin (writing this now) is the founder of Buildremote.
I worked at a fully remote marketing agency for eight years and was the Head of Operations for six of those years.

Who writes your content?
I (Henry) write most of the content, but I also have a small team of contract writers I work with. Whenever a contract writer creates content for Buildremote, the writer conducts a “subject matter expert” interview with Henry.
What topics do you cover?
Buildremote writes articles to help three main groups of people:
- Remote managers: How to hire and onboard remotely, tips for building remote culture, etc.
- Remote workers: How to manage your time while working remotely, what to have in your home office, how to find the right remote job, great remote companies to work for, etc.
- Remote investors/researchers: Research on companies reducing office space, Fortune 100 companies returning to the office, fully remote companies, remote-first companies, etc.
What’s your review process?
We occasionally write reviews about home office products and software tools for remote companies. For every individual product review, we have either used the product ourselves (at the Buildremote team) or we’ve tapped our contributor network for input on products they’ve used.
Do you use A.I. to write your content?
At Buildremote, we do not write content with AI tools.
However, for our research reports, we will occasionally use AI for basic research like this:
- Where is every remote-first company on this list headquartered?
- Describe what each of these fully remote companies do in one sentence.
- What are some similar job titles to these entry-level remote jobs?
Each time we use AI for research, a human reviews each response individually before including it in our content.
