Three conversation types, one workflow
Use the conversation structure that fits the moment without moving client communication into another tool.

Organized inbox
- Account conversations stay with the client
- Channels keep group discussions focused
- Direct messages support one-to-one follow-up

Team conversation view
- See who is part of the conversation
- Keep unread work visible
- Manage channel access and participants

Notification controls
- Choose alerts by conversation
- Use mentions-only where supported
- Mute alerts without removing access
Keep Each Conversation in the Right Place
Use the account chat for the ongoing client conversation, channels for named group discussions, and direct messages for private one-to-one follow-up.
- One default conversation tied to each client account
- Open or private channels for teammates and clients
- Direct messages between eligible team and client contacts
- Clients only see conversations they are part of

Make Client Participation Clear Before You Send
Client-presence notices help your team distinguish internal conversations from rooms that include portal contacts.
- See when a client is present in a channel or direct message
- Use private, invite-only channels for limited groups
- Let Channel Managers add or remove participants
- Transfer channel ownership or archive a channel

Choose Notifications Conversation by Conversation
Decide which conversations need every alert, which only need mention notifications, and which can stay quiet until you return.
- All Messages, Mentions Only, or Muted for supported chats
- All Messages or Muted for direct messages
- Pause Live Chat alerts temporarily without clearing unread state
- Keep unread conversations visible in the inbox

- Responsive chat layouts for desktop and mobile browsers
- Typing indicators and @mentions for active conversations
- Attach files directly in a conversation
