Slack is your Digital HQ
Connect your people, tools, customers and partners in a digital HQ. Break down communication silos and bring teams together around common goals, projects and processes.
Create flexible connections with employees, customers and partners
- Empower people to succeed from anywhere by providing them with the flexibility to choose where, how, and when they work best.
- Break down silos by bringing everyone across teams, timezones, physical spaces, and companies together around common goals and projects.
- Grow engagement in a work-from-anywhere world by recreating quick, informal office discussions with lightweight audio and screen-sharing.
- Give teams a digital-first way to brainstorm, solve time-sensitive issues, and chime in on projects using Slack Huddles—all without scheduling meetings, so work keeps on flowing uninterrupted.
Work faster with asynchronous collaboration
- Accelerate work by giving everyone across teams, timezones, physical spaces, and companies accessible tools to collaborate asynchronously with each other.
- Create short audio, video and screen recordings with Slack Clips to provide an update, showcase work, walk through a product demo, or give step-by-step instructions.
- Watch Clips your way—speed them up, slow them down, or read the captions. Transcriptions are archived and searchable, adding to your organization's knowledge history.
