Why it's different

Chat that knows where you are

Most team chat lives in a separate window, which is why half of every message is context you're re-typing. This one opens over the work.

🗨️

Always one click away

A chat icon sits in the app header with an unread badge. Click it and the panel slides in over whatever you were doing. Press Esc and it's gone.

👥

Rooms that manage themselves

One room per team, with membership inherited from the team. Nobody administers a channel list, and nobody is left out of a room they should be in.

@

Mentions that actually notify

Type @ and a colleague's name and they get a real notification on the bell — not just a message they might scroll past.

📎

Files and images inline

Attach a file or paste an image and it renders in the thread. No separate upload step, no link that expires.

🟢

Presence

See who's actually in the app before you wait twenty minutes for an answer.

🔒

Internal by design

Colleague-to-colleague only. Customer conversations live in the Omnichannel Inbox, so the two can never be confused for one another.

The honest bit

What it is, and isn't

We'd rather you knew before you switched than after.

It is

Internal messaging for a team that already runs on BackOffice — DMs, team rooms, mentions, attachments and presence, with nothing extra to buy or administer.

It isn't

A full replacement for a dedicated chat platform if you depend on threads, huddles, guest access or a large third-party app directory. If your team lives in those, keep what you have — Team Chat is for the conversations that belong next to the record.

Questions

Before you ask

Does it cost extra?

It's an app you install into your workspace. See pricing for what your plan includes.

Do I have to create channels?

No. There's one room per team you belong to, and membership follows the team. Nothing separate to join.

Can customers message us here?

No, by design. That's the Omnichannel Inbox. Keeping them apart is the point.

Is there a mobile app?

BackOffice is responsive in a mobile browser, and there's a dedicated communication app for teams that need one. Ask us about it.

One less tab. One less invoice.
