Slack is the default platform for internal team communication, with channels, threads, and shared rooms that replace endless reply-all email. Huddles add lightweight audio and video, canvas captures decisions in context, and the app directory pipes alerts from CRMs, databases, and project tools into the place teams already look. Widely used by VC firms for partner discussion, shared channels with portfolio companies, and the searchable team memory the inbox never provides.
