Chanty lets you create conversations: Public (team-wide knowledge and announcements) and Private (invite-only focused discussions), or start a Direct message with any active member on a team space.
Conversations help you stay on the same page with your team. Discuss projects or tasks, get instant responses, share files and links, or play media content – you name it.
