Flock

What is Flock?

Get all the tools you need to make teamwork easier

Collaboration

Bring your team together. Discuss projects, share ideas, and get work done in real time.

Start a direct chat or group chat with anyone

With the entire company directory at your fingertips, you can start a chat with just about anyone. Or simply create a channel and get everyone to share their ideas. Use a private channel for focused discussions or a public one to allow your teammates to discover and participate in meaningful conversations.

Jump to video calls with just one click

With Flock's video conferencing tool, it's easy to connect with remote teams. Make a video call directly from a chat or channel and share your screen for details. Keep everyone on the same page – even on the go.

Share all kinds of files and find them easily

Need to share multiple images with your teammates? Just drag and drop files of all types and see shared file previews as well. Need to find a file that someone shared? You can see all your shared files and content in one place on Flock.

Find what you're looking for

Searching on Flock is extremely quick and easy. With Flock's advanced search features, you can find what you're looking for — from messages to files to links — no matter who shared it or when.

Invite people to work with you

Need to work with vendors for your events or your PR agency, but don't want to give them access to sensitive company information? Simply add them as guests in Flock and specify the chats and channels they can access. Collaborate with everyone in one place.

Share important news and updates with the entire team

About the moon with the victory of the big customer? With Flock, you can share cheerleading with everyone through one-sided ad channels, where only team admins can relay information. No more guessing if everyone got the message!

Access your entire company directory

Still looking over your desk to find your teammates? With Flock, you have the entire directory of the company's team at your fingertips. Even when you're offline. Thus, you can easily contact any employee of your organization.

Manage mailing lists intelligently

Sending email updates to multiple parties can be a pain. With Flock's auto-generated mailing lists, you can send email to an entire channel at once. You can even manage your email lists the way you want. Add companions from other channels or even people who aren't on Flock!

Mark important messages for later

Stop shuffling and searching for that important link or phone number in a bunch of chat messages. You can tag anything important — from a message to a link — and come back anytime later. Everything you mark can be seen in one place - My favorites.

Organize your team intelligently

Need a channel for all the software developers in the New York office? Or a channel for everyone who reports to Mark? With Flock smart channels, you can preset association rules for channels. Once defined, any new employee who meets the criteria will be automatically added to the channel. Start teamwork quickly.

Pick up the phone for instant audio conferencing

Low on internet bandwidth? Or always on the move? With Flock, you can enjoy seamless audio calls and conferences with your team. Just pick up the phone, invite your team into a conference room via a pin in Flock, and start chatting.

Productivity

Increase your team's productivity and efficiency with our integrated tools. Collaborate with team members, share opinions, and manage your tasks more efficiently.

Convert discussions to tasks instantly

Launching a new product? You can create a channel for the project and quickly turn those discussions into tasks by creating tasks for you and your team. Add due dates and you're done. Let the shared tasks bot remind you every morning of the tasks to be done that day. No need to chase deadlines at the last moment.

Make sure everyone is heard

Wondering where to go for your annual offsite? Post a question on the channel and allow users to vote anonymously. Level up and create fun image-based surveys for your team. Polls are automatically updated across all channels and you can download a vote count to get the final say.

Create notes and collaborate with your team on the go

Got a fantastic idea in the middle of a meeting? With the Notes feature, you can quickly jot down your ideas and share them with your teammates. Anyone you shared the note with can make edits, and any changes will be updated in the chats where you shared the note.

Missed a deadline? Never again

With Flock, you'll never miss a deadline or forget a task again. Just set a reminder for any message in a chat or through the good old bar commands. Oh, and reminders can also be set up for all channel members at once.

Create and share code snippets anywhere

Let your code speak while you share it with other members of your team. Flock automatically detects the language and syntax of the code, making it easier for everyone to read and review your snippets.

Simplify and automate your workflows

Struggling to manage multiple processes while recruiting new employees? With process automation, you can simplify and automate even the most complex workflows, such as refund requests and IT requests. Get real-time updates on the tasks you're a part of, right from Flock.

Integrations

Integrate your most frequently used third-party apps with Flock. Choose from over 60 apps listed on the Appstore or create your own. No more switching between tabs!

Access all your Google Drive from within Flock

Change the way you collaborate with Google Drive's deep integration with Flock. Access your entire Google Drive from within Flock. Find and share any Google Drive file or folder. Or create new ones from the app and share them with your teammates. Make Flock the center of all your teamwork.

Reach all meetings on time with Google Calendar

With Flock's integration with Google Calendar, playing the guessing game is a thing of the past. You'll receive a reminder on Flock when it's time for your meeting. And even notifications about invitations and event updates. Now, time is on your side!
