Team chat where conversations become organized work
Private workspaces can enable Waffle Tickets in eligible text channels, keeping work beside the conversation. When a message looks actionable, you can also choose to hand it to Waffle AI with the surrounding context.
No credit card required.

Waffle Tickets
The board lives in the channel
Enable a ticket workspace in an eligible text channel inside a private workspace. Create work from a message or from the board, assign an owner, set priority and dates, then follow the same tickets in Board or List view. The source conversation stays one click away.
Capture
Create a ticket from the message that started it.
Structure
Add status, priority, assignee, and dates.
Track
Switch between Board and List over one dataset.
Review
Open details, source context, and activity in place.
Contextual Ask Waffle AI
Hand off the work without handing over control
A sufficiently described, actionable message can show an Ask Waffle AI button. You decide whether to use it, review exactly what context will be included, and start the run. When available, its thread and supported files can come along. If a key detail is missing, Waffle AI asks a focused question instead of guessing.
One more teammate, not another bot
Mention Waffle AI anywhere and it gets to work: reading, writing, doing. Replies land once, finished, with the files attached. No token-by-token typing theater.
Reads what you share
Drop in a PDF, a spreadsheet, or a wall of text and ask. Waffle AI reads attachments right in the channel and answers with specifics.
Turns asks into real files
Ask for a deck and you get a deck. Waffle AI generates PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, CSV, and text files, and attaches them to its reply like any teammate would.
Knows your codebase
Connect GitHub and Waffle AI browses directories, reads files, and searches code, so engineering questions get answers with file-level specifics.
Plugged into your tools
Connect Linear, Jira, or any MCP server your team runs. Admins pick which connectors each channel may use, and connector tokens are encrypted at rest and never shown again.
Everything you expect from team chat
The table stakes are all here, done carefully.
Channels and DMs
Public and private channels, categories, and direct messages with live presence.
Threads
Branch any message into a thread. Waffle AI follows along inside them too.
Reactions and custom emoji
Any Unicode emoji works, plus your team’s own uploaded :emoji: set.
Pins, saves, reminders
Pin what matters for the channel. Save anything for yourself and get reminded later.
Search that finds it
Full text search across channels and DMs, with jump-to-message in context.
Scheduled send and catch up
Write now, send at 09:00. Been away? Ask for a catch-up summary of the channel.
Voice channels, one click away
Click a voice channel and you are in the room. Speaking rings on avatars, mute and deafen, per-person volume, push to talk, and screen share when someone wants to show instead of tell. Join and leave chimes included.
DMs that feel alive
Presence is carved right into the avatar, so you can read the room at a glance. Custom statuses, profiles with pronouns and timezones, previews of the last message, and the calm unread model: a quiet pill for unread, a red badge only when you are mentioned.
New
Run a public community, free
A community server is the public kind of Waffle team: anyone can find it and join it, it holds up to 500 members at no cost, and the moderation toolkit is there from the first minute. Waffle AI is not, and that trade is what pays for the rest.
The details are the product
Make it yours
Pick the look that fits you: here are Porcelain, Latte, Graphite, and Midnight on the same screen, and there are twelve more, eight light and eight dark. Your choice tints the glass and the accent while the message plane stays calm, in light and dark.
One signature surface
The primary button, the composer send button, and Waffle AI's mention pill share one dithered accent shader that is always on, and falls back to pure CSS wherever WebGL is off.
Nothing jumps, nothing shifts
Hover actions float without pushing layout. Pinned markers, reply previews, tabular timestamps, and a typing strip that reserves its space forever.
Built for every pair of hands
High contrast mode, reduced motion, chat font scaling, cozy and compact density, and keyboard shortcuts for all of it. On phones, Waffle is a real mobile layout with gestures, not a shrunken desktop.
One click from your dock
The same Waffle in its own window. Windows builds update in the app. AppImage and deb updates are wired but still being verified on installed Linux systems. Unsigned macOS builds need a fresh download.
Common questions
- What is Waffle?
- Waffle is team chat with a built in AI member. You get channels, direct messages, threads, and voice, plus Waffle AI, a teammate you mention like anyone else that reads your files, writes real documents, reads your code, and runs your tools.
- How is Waffle different from Slack or Discord?
- Waffle includes a real AI teammate that does work, not just a paid summary add on. Waffle AI reads your files, writes PDF, Word, and slides, reads your GitHub code, and uses tools like Linear, all inside the chat, and it is included from the free plan.
- Is there a free plan?
- Yes. Waffle has a free plan that includes team chat and Waffle AI, with no credit card required. Paid plans start at 12 dollars per user per month and add more AI usage, larger uploads, and more integrations.
- Can Waffle AI write real documents?
- Yes. Ask for a deck, a report, or a spreadsheet and Waffle AI generates a real PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, or CSV file and attaches it to its reply, ready to send onward.
- Can I run a public community on Waffle?
- Yes. A community server is a public Waffle server anyone can find and join, free for up to 500 members, with a public directory and a moderation toolkit that includes timeouts, bans, member reports, keyword filters, and a lockdown control. Waffle AI is not available in a community server, and that trade is what keeps it free.
- Does Waffle have desktop and mobile apps?
- Yes. Waffle has Alpha desktop apps for macOS, Windows, and Linux, a full web app, and a real mobile web layout with gestures, not a shrunken desktop. Windows builds update in the app. AppImage and deb updates are wired but still being verified on installed Linux systems. Unsigned macOS builds need a fresh download.
