Inbox management

The inbox is where all messages appear, and you process them. Comms is built to help you get to Inbox Zero every day so you don’t feel overwhelmed and constantly behind on messages.

Message hierarchy with @ mentions

Using @, @@, or @@@ when you mention someone in a message indicates different urgency levels. Being conscious of how you tag people helps prioritize messages, so all Comms users can get through their inboxes more effectively, knowing exactly what to process first.

Channels (groups) organize messages

Channels help organize information and make it discoverable. Sorting messages by channel makes it easy to browse and search for exactly what you need.

Subscriptions for staying updated

Subscriptions allow users to follow specific threads or channels and receive updates as needed. This keeps users informed about relevant topics and discussions.

Search functionality

Search is a powerful part of Comms, allowing you to find exactly what you need by channel, user, time, content, and more. No need to scroll endlessly to find what you're looking for.

Shortcuts for efficiency

Keyboard shortcuts—or hotkeys—like Command+K help you move around the platform and process messages quickly, so you can get back to work.

Scheduled delivery and reminders

Scheduled delivery means messages will only populate your inbox at specific times, so you can free up blocks between processing Comms for deep work. Reminders ensure important messages or tasks come back to your inbox at appropriate times.
