Channels, threads and direct messages. One stream.
The screen your team sits in all day: conversations on the left, the open thread on the right, the composer under it. Rich text, reactions, pins, a live typing indicator and search across every conversation.
A reply stays with the message it answers, so the feed stays clean.
A file shared in a channel is stored once, in the account file store.
A mention and an ordinary message are separate notification categories.
A team conversation can never return a customer thread.
Open, private and archived. One channel registry.
Every channel the account has, in one browsable list.
Open channels are visible to everyone in the account. Private channels are invite only. There is no third state, because open and private are reachability, never a permission tier.
Create, rename, retopic or archive from the same screen, and archiving keeps everything that was said in it. Purview administers these same channels from where the business unit is set up, so governance is not a second console to keep in step.
A message is a message. A call is a call.
Some things are faster said than typed, and the team should not have to leave the conversation to say them.
Video, voice and a room that opens where you already are.
A call is a button on the conversation header, not a separate product with its own invitation and its own login.
Voice and video start where the conversation already is. Nothing to send, nobody to admit, no link to distribute. Mute and the running duration sit in the header while the call is up.
Starting a call posts a line into the thread, so whoever was away can see it happened. An incoming call is the one notification marked critical, so it is the only one that rings through.
Every shared file is the file. No second copy.
Share a document in a channel and it is stored once, in the account file store, tagged to that channel. Not a chat copy of it and not a second storage allowance: what a message points at is the file the rest of the business works from.
The conversation, the call and the file all point at the same person. Here is who that is.
The directory is the team. Same database, same people.
Not an address book Equipo keeps. It is the account member model, filtered to the people who hold Equipo, with live presence on every row. The person you direct message is the person the schedule, the payroll and the assignment lists are about.
Hire someone and grant Equipo and they are in the chat. Remove them and they are gone, because there is no second directory to fall out of step.
Message, voice or video from any row, without leaving the directory.
Working hours by day, so you show as away outside them, in your own timezone.
Do not disturb until a chosen moment, not until you remember to turn it off.
Measured from the messages, not from a guess.
Running it means knowing how much is being said, in which channels, and by how many people.
Channel governance, usage analytics, notification controls.
What the person who runs the account needs: the channel list with rename and archive on every row, and usage computed from the messages themselves rather than estimated.

Notification preferences belong to each person, never imposed on everyone at once. Every read and write is scoped to your account, and removing somebody from the member record closes their chat, their files and their calls in one action.
One bell for the whole account, and you decide what rings it.
A message, a mention, a channel invitation, a missed call and an incoming call are five categories, each one yours to tune. Nothing here emails or texts you: team chat reaches you in the app or on the phone the team actually carries, and only an incoming call rings through. It files into the same bell as your mail, your customer conversations and your meetings, because Equipo did not bring its own.
Where Equipo touches everything else.
7 of these 8 connections are in your plan today. The rest stay visible so you know the instrument is there before you need it.
Workforce
The people you can message are the shared member model, and the Equipo grant written when a person is hired is what puts them in the directory.
Depot
A file shared in a conversation is a Depot asset tagged to that channel, not a second copy in a chat store.
Live
The video button creates a Live instant meeting and renders the room inside the conversation rather than sending anyone to a link.
Voice
A voice call from a conversation or a directory row connects through the shared internal calling engine, which resolves the person by user id.
Link
Equipo writes the internal slice of the same messaging tables Link reads, through the same message renderer, and Link Team Config opens Equipo channels and settings.
Inbox
Inbox carries the conversation with a customer and Equipo carries the one with your own team, on the same tables under a different audience type.
Purview
Purview lists, creates, renames and archives the same channels through Equipo own channel API, and the active business unit scopes the conversation list.
University
Equipo, University and Inbox are the three per-person services granted in the same hiring step, so team communication arrives with training access.
No setup cost. Pay when you start using.
Team chat for internal work.

Questions about Calisto Equipo
Because the team is already in the system. Equipo runs on the same member model and the same file store as everything else, so there is nothing to provision, no second directory to keep in step and no file that exists in two places.
No. One message store sits behind team chat and the customer channels, which is why a conversation can be read in Link as one stream per person rather than as five apps.
They are removed once, on the member record, and that closes chat, files and calls together. The usual failure with a bolted-on chat tool is the account nobody remembered to disable.
Channels and messages import where the source exposes an export. Most teams bring the last year and archive the rest.
The pricing section on this page reads the live catalogue and is the authority. There are no per-seat fees, which is usually the reason a business rationed chat accounts in the first place.
Yes, exportable in standard formats along with the shared files.
