Out of curiosity what is this built with, what do you use for the backend? Will check it out!

Hello Product Hunt! 👋 Meet Zenchat, a chat app with built-in task management functions to enable holistic collaboration in teams. Now, you may be thinking, another chat app? Seriously? 🤔 Hear me out: People love to chat. It’s human nature. But chat apps don’t provide the structure needed for sustainable productivity like lists and Kanban boards do. Think about it… how many of your chat messages are actually tasks? or reminders? or appointments? How many of your chats contain knowledge that belongs to a certain topic, client, or task? So we have a problem: You don’t want to leave your chat, but you have to in order to track your work. But when you use an external app to manage tasks, you lose all the valuable commentary and feedback related to that task because—let’s face it—you’d always rather have a quick chat about something than use the comment function in a task app. With Zenchat we aim to solve that problem by meeting people where they are. You’re already chatting all day anyway, so we thought, why not make it easy to structure tasks that come up while you’re talking? Zenchat is the first chat app designed to keep teams in their flow: ✅ Quickly turn any message into a task & assign or edit within your chat. Never switch apps for routine task management again. 💬 Get in the habit of directly chatting about tasks so valuable information stays where it belongs. ✨ Optionally see chats related to all tasks in a project, or choose to focus only on your tasks. 🌌 Optionally connect to the Zenkit Universe to see your tasks in advanced views like Kanban, Gantt, to do list apps, and vice versa! 🏦 Zenchat is enterprise-ready: SSO, SCIM provisioning, admin tools, identity management & more. 🤑 Zenchat is free forever with an optional paid plan.

"Quickly turn any message into a task & assign or edit within your chat." that's such a cool idea

Signed up today to check this tool out, looks cool.

Why does 99% of posts here sound like a pyramid scheme? I have already seen Zenkit asking for users for their "reviews" but some of them here are just copy-paste badly written cringeworthy one-liners. Same thing is with Alternativeto. Sorry guys I really like Zenkit but buggy and jumpy interface threw me to other apps. And this kind of "community" is not a good look.

Great product!!

good product! upvoted

In my team, we've been using Zenkit for 35 sprints already. We have had many cases where tasks were discussed in Slack but not directly transferred to Zenkit. A lot of information got lost and there was too much friction between both worlds. I am very grateful that Zenchat now aims to solve exactly this problem. Creating tasks from messages and being able to see all messages related to a task feels totally right to me. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work!

I like the app already! Keep up the good job guys!

Love it guys..

We've been using Zenkit for our task management for over a year already and the Chat is definitely another huge upgrade. It integrates perfectly into our SCRUM work flows and saves a ton of time and nerves switching back and forth between Zenkit and Slack. Great job, guys! Keep up the amazing work. 🤓

Love this feature

The Zenkit Universe is a gamechanger, growing more and more to be a tool without any real alternative. Lots of appreciation! ✨ 🙌 ✨

Great Job! The chat is a nice and helpful extension to our task management tool 😍

This looks cool, congrats on the launch! Is this meant to replace Slack or rather an additional tool for task-specific discussions?
