What it does

Brought to you by the makers of Todoist, Twist is the communication tool for teams who believe there’s more to work than keeping up with group chat apps.

See how much more efficient your teamwork can be (even across time zones). Named a World Changing Idea by Fast Company.

Twist is an async messaging app that makes collaboration easy from anywhere by using threads to organize your conversations. Twist keeps conversations organized and on topic with threads. No more chit-chat burying important work communication. Organize channels by topic, project, or client to create a central place to gain visibility on your team’s work. Instill more calm and less anxiety with smarter notifications. The inbox gathers threads in one place, allowing team members to easily prioritize what matters to them. Quickly onboard new employees and easily share context to past decisions with easy-to-access threads. Use messages to continue the work banter with all the gifs and emojis…from twist.com
