Work is changing. Messaging should too.
Twist is async messaging for teams burned out by real-time, all-the-time communication and ready for a new way of working together.
The real-time status quo
Constantly interrupted by meetings and Slack chats while chained to the 9-to-5.
The asynchronous revolution
Trusted to collaborate, focus, and finally disconnect — on your timeline.
Twist is async messaging for the flexible future of work.
- Richard Burton, CEO of Balance Software
“Twist is the perfect tool for deep work in a team setting. You cannot see if people are online. You are encouraged not to notify everyone all of the time. There is no glowing green dot encouraging you to be ‘always on’. It’s got the balance just right.”
- Lee Watanabe-Crockett, Founder of Wabisabi Learning
“Slack had a lot of promise for us but quickly became a productivity and deep-thought killer. Switching to Twist transformed our globally distributed team. We are on different continents and closer than any team I’ve worked with.”
- Daniel Kuney, General Manager at KGM Theatrical
“My team switched from Slack to Twist and it's been a game changer. Conversations in threads stay organized and far more easily referenced.”
- Thibault Seynaeve, Marketing Specialist at Groep Verellen
“Twist is a lifesaver to reduce digital stress and the fear of missing out when you can’t read everything in a group chat.”
No monitoring presence indicators
Stay in the flow without the pressure to respond now.
No demanding notification dots
Take back control from design tricks that hijack your time and attention.
No need for endless meetings
Make space for deep work by replacing real-time calls with async threads.
Threaded conversations never get buried in chitchat.
Twist threads keep conversations organized and on topic, so there’s no pressure to follow along in real-time. Catch up and chime in on your time.
A noise-free inbox surfaces just what's relevant to you.
Stop scrolling through chatter to find what’s important. Your inbox gathers all the threads you’re part of in one place, to join (and mark done) as you go.
Organized channels let you lurk on discover past topics.
Skim through thread topics inside public channels and dive deep into any conversation — whether it happened last week or last year.
Shareable thread links mean history is learned from, not rehashed.
Already discussed it? Share a link back to the thread with all the preserved context. Twist is a web of team knowledge that builds itself.
Plus all the integrations you’ve come to rely on…

- Manuel Frigerio, Founder of SparkLoop
“On Slack, I had constant FOMO. On Twist, I know I'm always on top of everything.”
- Mark Zahra, CEO of RebelCode
“Twist doesn’t constantly show who’s online and who’s not, so you don’t feel like anyone can pop in and distract you.”
- Alexis Bourbeau, Director at Ally Learning
“We’re using the async nature of Twist to push conversations forward and brainstorm new approaches, where previously we relied on being in a meeting in the same physical space.”
- Ariel Camos, Founder & CEO of Microverse
“With Slack there was a lot of anxiety about ‘I don’t know what I’m missing, I don’t know which messages apply to me.’ Switching to Twist was like night and day.”
Bottom line: You’re free to close Twist
to think
to create
to disconnect
