Talk with your team
right beside the work.

You give each topic its own channel. Anyone in the workspace can join an open channel; a private one is seen only by the people you invite. Who reads what is settled as you create the channel.

You write one to one with a person, or gather a few people into one conversation. You do not have to open a channel for a group. A short conversation needs no structure built around it.

When you turn messaging on in a project, a channel belonging to that project is created. The decision about the project stays in the project’s channel and does not mix into the main flow. The project’s conversation stands with the project.

As you build a team, you open its chat channel too. Whoever joins the team joins the channel, whoever leaves is removed; you never update the list by hand. As the team changes, the channel updates itself.

You move a long-running topic under the message. The main flow stays clean and the people involved carry on in their own thread. Two conversations do not run over each other.

When you mention a person, a notification reaches them. You can also call out to the whole channel or to whoever is connected at that moment. You reach the person you want to inform directly.

You drop the image or the document into the conversation. The file stays under the message and you do not have to send it separately. The document stays together with the context of the conversation.

You do not have to write a message for a short confirmation. You react with an emoji, and who reacted is visible too. Short confirmations do not crowd the channel.

You pin at the top what everyone in the channel needs to know. Whoever joins the channel later sees it first. The same piece of information is not written into the channel again and again.

You save the message you want to come back to. Your saved items are visible only to you and gather in one list. The messages you will look at later collect in a single list.

You see what has landed on you in one list. Unread conversations and messages that mention you stand together. You start the day knowing what is waiting for you.

You type the sentence you are looking for. You can narrow the results by channel, by person or to those carrying a file. A decision made in the past does not get lost.

For each conversation you choose how much notification you want: all messages, only the ones that mention you, or none. You can also mute a conversation until a given date. You set the notification order to your own rhythm of work.

You invite someone to a private channel and they join once they accept. If you sent it by mistake, you can withdraw the invitation. You decide who enters a private channel.

You see who the channel is made of in a single window. You add new people from the list and take out the ones who should leave; whoever manages the channel is marked next to their name. Who can change the channel stays in plain sight.

You see whether a person is online, away, or would rather not be disturbed. If the other side has started typing, that does not escape you either. You choose whom to write to and when by seeing it.

You archive the channel of a finished job; it leaves the list but the conversation is not deleted. If one day you need to go back to that decision, you restore the channel and open it. The channel list does not swell with finished work.

You correct a message you wrote wrongly within fifteen minutes of sending it. Where a deleted message stood it says it was deleted; it does not vanish quietly. The history of the conversation stands as it was.
