Overview

Chanty is a team chat and collaboration app founded in 2017 and based in New York. It positions itself as a faster, simpler, and lower-cost alternative to Slack and Microsoft Teams, built around messaging, voice/video calls, and built-in task management in a single interface.

The product is aimed at small businesses, mid-market teams, and enterprise groups that want core team communication features — chat, calls, and lightweight task tracking — without the cost or complexity of larger enterprise collaboration suites.

Key Features

Chanty supports unlimited public and private conversations with searchable history, one-on-one and group voice/video calls (up to 1,000 participants and 49 visible video tiles), and screen sharing. Any message can be turned into a task with one click, and tasks can be assigned, prioritized, and tracked without a separate project management tool.

The platform integrates with Zapier, Google Drive, GitHub, Dropbox, and Asana, among others. Higher tiers add an employee directory, shared calendar, polls and forms, HIPAA compliance, SSO, and two-factor authentication for teams with stricter security or compliance needs.

Pricing

Chanty's Free plan supports up to 5 team members with unlimited chat history and 20GB of file storage. The Business plan costs $3/user/month billed annually (or $4/user/month billed monthly) and removes the team-size cap while adding screen sharing, HIPAA compliance, SSO/2FA, and more.

An Enterprise plan with custom pricing adds white-labeling, directory sync, SCIM provisioning, and on-premise deployment options. Chanty offers a 50% discount for nonprofits and education, plus a 14-day money-back guarantee on paid plans.
