About Mantle Chat
We're a tiny team with years of experience as developers and designers who love working with AI.
What we're building
A platform that brings together: chat with multiple AI models, personal and shared workspaces, and team channels where AI acts as an agent for any project.
Where It Started
We're living in a time when AI is evolving at incredible speed. Every day brings new breakthroughs, and we've been right there — using these tools, learning from them, being inspired by them. As developers and designers who rely on AI daily, we realized something: we weren't just looking for another tool to use. We were searching for something that didn't exist yet.
The Missing Piece
We kept asking ourselves: what if we could create a product that unlocks AI's potential on an entirely new level? Multiple AI models at your fingertips. Personal workspaces for deep, focused work. Shared spaces for true team collaboration. Channels where AI isn't just a tool, but a teammate. All of it connected in one seamless platform.
Building What We Believe In
And we started to build. But we're not just builders — we're users too. Every feature we add, every decision we make, comes from our own daily experience. We listen to our community and adapt quickly. The giants like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google have created incredible technology. Our role? To weave it all together in a way that makes sense for how people actually work — sometimes alone, sometimes together, and often a blend of both.
The Future We See
A platform where individual creativity meets team innovation. Where AI agents become natural parts of your workflow. Where switching from personal projects to team collaboration is effortless. This isn't just about making AI accessible — it's about making it collaborative, intuitive, and truly yours.

What matters to us
The stuff we actually care about when building Mantle
Simple, not simplified
We mix our experience, user testing, and AI itself to design our interfaces. We love when things just click without explanation. Our favorite moment is when someone says "oh, that was easy" or figures something out without documentation. But we won't avoid innovation just to keep things familiar — sometimes the best features need a moment to learn. When we ask you to try something new, we make sure it's worth your time.
Privacy first
Your data is yours. We don't sell your information. We use secure cloud infrastructure, and you can delete everything with few clicks. We're transparent about what we collect (basic usage analytics to improve the product) and what we don't.
Building trust takes years; losing it takes seconds. We know which one we prefer.
Growing together
We have a public roadmap and we actually use it. Your feedback doesn't disappear into a void — it shapes our priorities, even if it takes time. We won't pivot on every request (that's how products die), but when we see patterns in what users need, we adapt. Some things ship fast, others take months of planning. We stay true to our vision while letting your experience guide the details. Small team, real conversations, thoughtful evolution.
