Meet the buddies

Meet Businessman: sharp suit, big plans.

Businessman, a buddy with wavy salt-and-pepper hair, dark glasses, a black suit and a white shirt

Businessman walks in like the meeting has already started. Black suit, white shirt, dark glasses and a grin that says he has a plan. He paces your Dock, straightens his collar before the big moment, and waves to the crowd when things go his way.

He runs the room

Businessman carries himself like the corner office is wherever he stands. He paces, he plans, and he straightens his collar before anything that matters. He is the buddy for the days you need a little swagger on the screen.

A look you can read from across the desk

The black suit, crisp white shirt, dark glasses and wavy salt-and-pepper hair are the whole character. They stay readable even when he is tiny on your Dock.

Which moods does Businessman show?

Businessman shows 6 moods: happy, sad, focused, surprised, tired, and thinking. A mood changes the eyes and mouth on Businessman’s 3D face, and it plays alongside whatever Businessman is doing.

What is Businessman learning next?

Next on Businessman’s list: checking his watch, a call on the move, and signing the big deal. Like everything on our roadmap, these come in the order the work happens, not on promised dates. We add new activities regularly, often from ideas people send us.
