Slack and Telegram, in the same thread where the work already gets discussed. No new app for the team to adopt, no context living on one person's laptop.

Anyone can tag Malik. He shares context across the workspace, so what one person teaches him helps the whole team.

Brief him once. He uses your tools, builds the report, deck, or app, and brings the finished work back to the thread.
