The private Slack alternative

A private
social network
for your company.

Interkom is the private Slack alternative — a social network you run inside your company: chat, stories, channels, and the people behind them. It's quietly alive: presence, typing, reactions, voice notes. No public feed. No strangers. Workspace-scoped, end-to-end.

// SEC.02 — SEC.04 · what's inside

Messages, stories,
and team spaces.

We didn't try to rebuild every tool you use. Interkom does the parts of work that live between meetings — the messages, the moments, the people — and tries to do them with a little more grace.

[SEC.02]

Threads that don’t drown.

Rooms for the work, DMs for the people, a quiet inbox that respects the fact that not every message needs you right now.

a quick one — can you push the staging build?
on it 🍞 — ETA 6 minutes
legend
[SEC.03]

Stories from the people you work with.

A 24-hour line for the small stuff — a sketch, a view from the desk, a "we shipped it" — without making it a meeting or a thread.

[SEC.04]

A space that feels like a building.

Each workspace gets its own home at slug.interkom.app — your people, your channels, your stories. Invite the team. Lock the door.

// SEC.05 · stories

24-hour stories
for your team.

Some things don’t need a thread or a stand-up. A photo of the prototype. A view out the window. A small win. Stories are 24-hour, just-for-the-team, and never end up in someone’s search results six months later.

  • 24Hauto-expire — nothing lingers in the archive.
  • JUST USonly people inside your workspace can see them.
  • REACTtap-back replies land in a DM, not a public thread.

// SEC.06 · end-to-end encryption

End-to-end
encryption.

Every message, every photo, every voice note is sealed on your device before it leaves it — and unsealed on the other side. Our servers carry the envelope. They never get the letter.

Keys are generated locally and rotated continuously. New device? You verify it. Lose a device? Revoke it. Curious admin, curious ISP, curious us — there's nothing legible to look at.

KEYS ON DEVICE
never uploaded, never escrowed.
FORWARD SECRECY
past chats stay safe if a key leaks.
ZERO-KNOWLEDGE STORAGE
we can't read it, even if asked.
VERIFIED DEVICES

Your own workspace URL.

Every Interkom workspace lives at a clean little URL — your handle, your home. People join by invite, leave by choice, and you get a real boundary between "the team" and "the internet."

// SEC.08 · per-workspace profiles

A separate profile
for every workspace.

You aren't the same person at your day job, your weekend studio, and the group chat that's somehow still going from college. Interkom knows that. Pick a different name, photo, and handle at each workspace — no more corporate-headshot-meets-friend-group energy.

Switch between them like rooms in a house. Your status, your inbox, even your pronouns travel with the door — never with the rest of you.

one login · every workspace · different faces
// SEC.09 · audio & video calls

Hop on a
call.

Go from a thread straight into a call — voice or video, one-to-one or the whole room. No meeting links, no guest accounts, no second app. Just the people already in your workspace.

Share your screen to walk through the work, pull someone in mid-call, mute or cut the camera with one tap — in a real, native call window on iPhone and Mac.

ONE TAP
call anyone in your workspace.
SCREEN SHARING
show the work, not just your face.
GROUP CALLS
add people without restarting.

// SEC.10 · notes from the build

A few small opinions.

We're not trying to replace your tools. We're trying to make the parts of work that happen between them feel like something you'd actually want to use.

  • [01]
    Notifications are a privilege.
    Interkom ships with quiet hours on by default. The app should earn its way to your lock screen, not assume it.
  • [02]
    No reactions theater.
    Three reactions: 🫶 / 👀 / ✺. That’s it. We don’t need a wall of thumbs to know someone read your message.
  • [03]
    Search that finds, not auto-completes.
    Press ⌘K anywhere. Type half a word. Find the message, the person, the link. No keyboard shortcut overlay required.
  • [04]
    Voice notes, no transcripts.
    Some things you should hear. We don’t silently transcribe; if you want text, you can type.
// SEC.11 · apps

Native apps for
every platform.

One Interkom account, three first-class apps. No Electron, no compromise app — each one is built for the platform it runs on, and all of them stay in sync to the keystroke.

macOS
A real Mac app

Menu-bar presence, multiple windows, every ⌘ shortcut you reach for. Universal binary, tuned for Apple silicon.
