Hi everyone. I'm one of the founders of M.io. We'd love any feedback from the Product Hunt community, suggestions on which messaging platforms to add next, new feature ideas, etc. I'll be around all day to respond to any comments/questions. All messaging apps have one thing in common: they're all walled gardens; both the message sender and the receiver must be using the same application. We're building M.io because we want to make it easy to chat with anyone, regardless of which messaging app they are using. We are launching today with support for Slack, Cisco Spark and Atlassian Stride, but our plan to add all major consumer and enterprise messaging apps by the end of the year.

Honestly, this product and team is so great that they will be acquired within a year. The product just works so well and reduces so much time. Super easy to use and amazing for topic conversations.

Pros:

Cross channel conversations, less email, less chat apps to download

Cons:

None

😍Been kicking tires on this product for little while now. It's magic. So easy to spin up conversations with anyone, or kick off new groups with people from many different organizations. The wizardry these guys have pulled off is in the fact that it all just-works. Image attachments, threads, reacji, mentions... all of it. 👏

Suuuuuuch a great idea. This is magical! At the university I work at, more and more departments are starting to use Slack, so this is a great tool for interdepartmental collaboration. 🔥🙏

Congrats on the launch, Tom, Chris, Trevor and the gang! Been using M.IO now for a 3 or 4 months and it's been great. We've created a community for our podcast so everyone can chime in on the conversation from where ever they may be. Even chatting to friends and colleagues across Slack workspaces has been awesome so I don't have to switch back and fourth to my phone for SMS. Really looking forward to trying out the support for Atlassian Stride. The future of conversational commerce right here!

Reminds me of what Meebo was and could have been. Will help solve the problem of having so many damn Slack workspaces, and chatting with customers and clients in our case who all use different stuff. I also just want these guys to succeed because there should be a standard protocol for this stuff, a fabric across everything, just as with every other web utility (e.g. Jabber / XMPP etc.) — I'm sick of these siloed platform wars, the user always suffers.

Pros:

It just works. Been playing with it since early alpha.

Cons:

Setup could be easier, but that depends on the various messaging providers, not M.io.

Personally use M.io and absolutely LOVE being able to connect with other peers across different channels, it's really simplified the access points for comms and streamlined connectivity. On top of that, Tom, Chris and the rest of the team are rockstars! Koodos, guys!

Congrats, guys! You've done a lovely job across the board. I'm super excited to see where this goes! 🎉

I've been using M.io in beta for a while and I have been incredibly impressed by the utility of the product and the cleverness and quality of the solution. Excellent job guys, great opportunity here for you!

It just works... so well. Pretty amazing across all these platforms... TOTALLY psyched for this

Pros:

CRUCIAL to communicate with clients on different platforms, I don't want to get off my Slack to reach them, and now I don't have to! Yippy!!

Cons:

Excited for all the new platforms they are launching!

The M.io team is incredibly talented. They deliver features at an astonishing pace, and everything they do is very thoughtfully executed. (Full disclosure: I'm friends with these folks.)

Pros:

Makes it incredibly easy to join communities from your company's chat app of choice.

Cons:

I'll let you know when I run across some.

I think we all struggle with Slack Team fatigue.. M.io makes it very simple to consolidate your Slack Teams and enable you to stay in contact with external friends and teams in your go-to slack accounts. I've been using M.io beta for the last few months and can only say great things!

I've worked with many members of the team -- with Chris Traganos at Evernote, and have assisted in some content and social media for the M.io crew. Seeing them build this product over the course of the past year has been really exciting. The world of messaging has clearly impacted our professional course and the channels we use to communicate with colleagues changes by the week. M.io solves what can often be a frustrating experience to harness the messaging platforms into a singular, universal experience. I can't wait to see what is next for the talented M.io team!

Thanks to all the commenters and reviewers for sharing how you're using M.io! For those of you who haven't tried it yet- here's a fun channel we just set up for the PH community: https://m.io/channel/product-hunt
