Channels turn chat and email into a governed front door for company work, so requests, updates, and artifacts stay close to the team.

Start in Slack, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, or email. Hai can collect context, ask clarifying questions, send notifications, and return finished work without forcing another tab.

## Principles

- Connected: every channel can reach the same workspace context and tools.
- Multiplayer: teammates can see, discuss, and hand off the same work.
- Security + Compliance: channel actions inherit workspace scopes and audit expectations.

## Surface

- **Team channels:** Bring Hai into Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Telegram for requests, digests, and operating updates.
- **Inbox work:** Use email as a task surface for triage, drafted replies, routing, and follow-up reminders.
- **Voice-ready surfaces:** Prepare for realtime voice, STT, and TTS where spoken work needs to become structured follow-through.

## Examples

- Ask in Slack for the latest revenue booking context.
- Send a Teams digest before leadership standup.
- Turn an email thread into a support brief and owner.
