Macro Chat

Team chat, organized.

Inline threads, @mention sharing, and agents in every channel. Shared inbox with your email and tasks.

  • @mention to instantly share

    @mention a doc, tasks, or email thread in a channel and every member gets access. No permission dialogs or forgotten shares.

  • Turn a message into a task

    Spin any message into a task or doc in one keystroke. Linked to the thread, and auto-assigned to you or a teammate.

  • @Macro catches you up

    Type @Macro to summon an agent with full work context. Summarize what you missed, draft replies, or answer questions.

How is Macro Chat different from Slack?

Macro Chat includes channels, threads, and emoji. It also shares an inbox with email and tasks, and @Macro can use the workspace context available to it.

What happens when I @mention a doc or task?

Everyone in the channel gets access to it automatically. There are no separate permission dialogs or manual sharing steps.

Does it have threads?

Yes. Replies stay below the parent message in an inline, forum-style thread.

What can @Macro do in a channel?

Type @Macro to ask an agent to summarize missed conversation, draft replies, or answer questions using the workspace context available to it.

Can I search across everything?

Yes. One search covers channels, email, docs, and tasks.

Is Macro open source?

Yes. Macro is open source under the AGPLv3. The code is on GitHub.

Is our workspace data secure?

Yes. Open source means the Macro application code is available to inspect. It does not make your workspace public. Data in your Macro account, including your team’s email, documents, messages, and other workspace content, remains private and secure.

Quieter channels. Better work.

It takes 30 seconds to connect your workspace and bring channels, email, tasks, and agents into one shared memory.
