Shape

A simple encrypted workspace for teams and individuals.

Join Waitlist

All you want is a simple way to talk with your team, and you're handed Slack, where meaningful conversation goes to die. All you want is a clear, dependable tool for tracking work, and you're given Linear, where half the battle is figuring out where anything is. All you want is a straightforward place to share notes and knowledge, and you're offered Notion, an app that practically requires a course just to begin.

By the end of the month, you've spent hundreds of dollars, and your team has spent far too many hours getting nowhere.

Everyone wants to IPO. Products your team rely on twist and morph into bland concoctions meant to satisfy the largest userbase possible. Meanwhile, your team spends an hour a day fighting with tools meant to improve productivity but end up just getting in the way.

Foundational discoveries in information technology have yielded software inventions which have proven to be indispensable. The question is, if their invention is so groundbreaking and important, why doesn't the extracted essence of the invention exist alone, in its pure form? Why do we get such a messy wrapper around important technologies like chat, discussion, tasks, and notes?

What does chat look like, in its purest form? What do team discussions look like when the goal isn't revenue extraction, but fulfillment of purpose? What do tasks look like when you aren't racing towards your next VC round?

Meet Shape. A radically simple new way to work.

The next evolution of the team workspace

All-in-none, not all-in-one.

All-in-one tools fail by overcomplicating the basics. Shape works differently: foundational tools that function as basic elements of technology—wholes, not parts. In Shape, you link information together, not interfaces.

Chat
1-on-1 and team conversations
Discussion
Long-form thought and strategy
Papers
Knowledge storage and transfer
Tasks
Backlog to delivered
Tables
Structured data and CRM
End-to-end encrypted

The privacy to work well

Great work happens when a team can speak freely. But in most tools, there's always the sense of being watched—by the platform, by the policy, by the possibility of a breach. That quiet tension shapes how people think, what they say, and which ideas never surface.

Shape is end-to-end encrypted. No one but you and your team can read your conversations or your documents. We can't see your data. We can't train on it. We can't monetize it. And even in a breach, your information stays protected by keys only you control.

With true privacy, teams unlock a different quality of collaboration—deeper focus, braver ideas, and the freedom to store even mission-critical information anywhere in the workspace.

Once you experience that kind of trust, there's no going back.
