Chanty is an all-in-one collaboration tool for onsite and remote teams. Like other collaboration tools, it offers many IRC-style features, including persistent chat rooms (channels) organized by topic, private groups, direct messaging, audio messages, task management, video calling, and more.[1]
Chanty's specialty lies in its unique Kanban board and easy-to-use features that allow employees to be more efficient. The efficiency of its Kanban board promises productivity to increase by 55%.
History
Back in 2017, Chanty was founded by Dmytro Okunyev [2][3] for the internal use of his team. The team needed a collaboration tool that would not limit their message history, allow group audio and video calls and have its own built-in task manager to help manage the team's projects.
In 2017, Dmytro and his team started working on a communication app with unlimited message history [4][5].
Shortly after, they realized they could make money from it, so they launched a beta to enter the market.
In early 2019 Chanty launched one-on-one and group audio calls as well as one-on-one video calls [6]
Soon after, they integrated Asana, Gitlab, Github, Bitbucket, Mailchimp, Trello, Gdrive, Dropbox, Onedrive in their software.[7]
In November 2020 Chanty was translated into Spanish, Turkish, German, and Russian.
In December 2020 Chanty announced long-awaited group video calls with a screen sharing feature.[8]
Now Chanty has more than 70,000 teams worldwide.
