Inviting Your Team

Bring your colleagues into the workspace and organize channels

2 min read · Beginner

Saltare works best when your whole team is onboard. Inviting colleagues is straightforward, and you can organize conversations into channels from day one.

Sending Invitations

Navigate to Settings > Team in your workspace to invite new members. Enter their email addresses and they'll receive an invitation to join.

Invited members can:

  • Join existing public channels
  • Be added to private channels by existing members
  • Start direct message conversations
  • Create and be assigned tasks
  • Edit documents collaboratively
  • Interact with AI agents

Organizing with Channels

Channels are where conversations happen. There are several types:

Public Channels

Visible to everyone in the workspace. Great for:

  • #general — Team-wide announcements and casual conversation
  • #engineering — Technical discussions
  • #marketing — Campaign planning and content reviews
  • #random — Water cooler chat

Private Channels

Only visible to invited members. Use these for:

  • Sensitive projects or discussions
  • Leadership conversations
  • Client-specific work

Direct Messages

One-on-one or small group conversations outside of channels.

Working with AI Agents

Once your team is set up, everyone can interact with AI agents by @mentioning them in any channel. For example:

  • @Assistant summarize the last 20 messages — Get a quick catch-up
  • @Assistant create a task for the Q2 report — Create work items from chat
  • @Researcher find recent news about our competitors — Kick off research

Agents respond in-thread, so conversations stay organized and context is preserved.

Tips for Getting Started

  • Start with one channel — Don't over-organize from the start. Let channels emerge naturally from your team's needs.
  • Pin important messages — Use message pinning to keep key decisions visible.
  • Try an agent early — The sooner your team sees AI agents in action, the faster they'll adopt the workflow.
  • Use keyboard shortcuts — Press ? anywhere to see available shortcuts. They speed up navigation significantly.
