Chanty is an all-in-one collaboration tool for onsite and remote teams. It offers many Internet Relay Chat, including persistent chat rooms (channels) organized by topic, private groups, direct messaging, audio messages, task management, video calling, and more [[1]].

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]].

Soon they realized they could make some money from it, so they launched a beta and got quite a few customers in a short time.

In early 2019 the team launched one-on-one and group audio calls as well as one-on-one video calls [[6]].

Chanty team has also launched Integrations with Asana, Gitlab, GitHub, Bitbucket, Mailchimp, Trello, Gdrive, Dropbox, Onedrive [[7]].

In November 2020 Chanty was translated into Spanish, Turkish, German, and Russian.

In four years, Chanty has grown from a small project into an app used by more than 70,000 teams worldwide.
