Macro Chat

Macro Chat is a team messaging tool built around the idea that chat shouldn't live in isolation. Channels, email, tasks, and docs share a single workspace, so conversations stay connected to the work they're about. For companies using Slack or Microsoft Teams, Macro easily wins on the depth of workspace integration.

The core chat experience should feel familiar: channels, reactions, and fast messaging. What's different is how threads and sharing work.

Key capabilities include:

• @mention sharing means dropping a doc or task into a message automatically shares it with every channel member. No permission dialogs and no follow-up requests.
• Unified inbox pulls channel @mentions, email, and task assignments into one Signal-filtered list. Nothing requires checking multiple tabs.
• @Macro agent lives in every channel. Ask it to summarize overnight activity, draft a reply, or answer a question, and it works from the full workspace context, not just recent messages.
• Inline threads sit directly under the parent message rather than opening a side panel. The channel stays readable without switching context.
• Two-way links are created with an @mention a task or doc, so the item and the conversation stay connected.
• Notification control lets you follow channels @mentions-only, so there is not pinging on every message but the important things get seen.

It's open source under AGPLv3 in case you want to self-host or audit what's running. For teams already using something like Rocket.Chat or Huly, the distinction is the tight integration between chat and the surrounding workspace objects. Docs and tasks aren't adds-ons. Instead, they're first-class things you can reference, link, and share directly inside a message.
