Chord

Chord reworks the group discussion itself. Instead of one call where everyone hears the same thing, each participant holds a private one-on-one chat with an AI facilitator. The facilitator passes relevant information and viewpoints between people as the thread moves, so the group stays aligned without sitting through a call.

The pitch is simple. A conversation that runs in series takes longer with every person you add, and most of what a meeting broadcasts isn't useful to most of the room. Chord works as an AI meeting alternative for teams that can't keep booking calls. Chord parallelizes the exchange so everyone talks at once and each person hears the parts that matter to them. When the thread settles, the group gets a written consensus statement as the record of the decision. As an AI group chat, it also keeps the whole exchange in one place instead of scattered across apps.

The limits matter too. Chord depends on people showing up to type their thoughts, so it fits asynchronous, opinion-driven decisions better than fast back-and-forth work. Every participant also has to endorse the consensus before it's final.

Getting Started

1. Sign in at chord.team with an email or a Google account.
2. Start a new discussion, describe the decision your team needs to make or the topic you want consensus on, then copy the shared link.
3. Drop the link into a Zoom chat, a Slack channel, or an email so each teammate can join.
4. Let everyone chat one-on-one with the facilitator, which tailors its questions to each person's context.
5. Once the group agrees, approve the consensus statement that Chord writes as the record.
