Workspace chat

Chat that stays inside the workspace, beside the work

Team messages is a focused, workspace-scoped chat between teammates so the conversation about a territory, an automation, or a Neighbor List row lives next to the artifact — not in a side channel that gets lost on Monday.

What it does

Each capability below is a real surface in the Team messages screen — exactly what the team will see and use the first day they sign in.

  • Same teammate roster as Territories

    Team messages pulls from the same teammate roster Territories uses, so the people you can chat with are the same people you can assign signals to. No second user list to keep in sync.

  • Direct threads with persisted history

    Pick a peer, open the thread, and see the last several hundred messages with their timestamps. Conversations carry across sessions so context isn't lost when the rep closes the laptop.

  • Realtime updates

    Messages stream in live as teammates send them, so a quick 'I've got the Wando block' lands in the other rep's pane without a refresh.

  • Read state synced to the sidebar

    Each thread tracks a per-user read state so the sidebar shows accurate unread counts. Reps don't ping each other twice because something looked unread.

  • Sane composer

    Type up to a few thousand characters per message; Enter sends, Shift+Enter wraps a line. The composer stays out of the way of the actual conversation.

  • Empty-state pointing at invites

    If there's no one to chat with yet, the empty state points the admin at Profile to send team invites — there's never a guess about how to add the next teammate.

Less side-channel, more shared truth

When the team chats inside the workspace, the conversation stays attached to the territory and the row. Slack still gets the alerts; the work talk stays where the work is.
