The term 'asynchronous workflows' is predominantly used in tech and software development contexts in both Brazil and the USA. In Brazilian companies, this concept has gained prominence with the rise of remote work and distributed teams across different time zones, particularly post-2020. The term is typically used in English even in Portuguese-speaking tech environments, though 'fluxos de trabalho assíncronos' is the proper Portuguese translation used in formal documentation and localized software interfaces.
