What is Twist
Twist is an async team communication app from Doist. It organizes work discussions into channels and threads for teams that want fewer interruptions and more focused collaboration.

Twist is a team communication app from Doist built around asynchronous collaboration. It organizes discussions into channels and threads instead of relying primarily on continuous real-time chat.
