About Us
Slack aims to simplify, improve, and boost productivity in the workplace. Founded in 2009 as Tiny Speck, the company initially developed Glitch, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game. When Glitch didn't achieve the desired success, the team strategically repurposed their internal communication tool, built for the game's development, as the basis for Slack. Launching officially in 2013, Slack rapidly became a favored alternative to traditional email for workplace communication, offering a more modern and efficient approach. Its innovative features and user-friendly interface quickly propelled it to widespread adoption across various industries. Slack fostered enhanced collaboration, streamlined workflows, and improved overall team communication. This success led to its acquisition by Salesforce in 2021, further solidifying its position as a leading communication platform. The acquisition allowed Slack to integrate with Salesforce's extensive suite of customer relationship management (CRM) and other enterprise solutions, offering a more comprehensive and integrated experience for businesses. Slack continues to evolve, adding new features and functionalities to meet the ever-changing needs of the modern workplace, remaining committed to its core mission of making work simpler, more pleasant, and more productive for its users worldwide.
