Cushion is a modern workplace communication platform designed specifically for small, distributed teams. Unlike traditional chat apps like Slack or Discord that bury important information in endless streams, Cushion organizes communication around posts—single-topic threads that keep entire conversations together on one page. This approach reduces distractions and prevents knowledge from fading away over time.
Key Features:
- Posts-based communication: Collaborate without chaos using organized, single-topic threads
- AI Agents: Delegate repetitive tasks and busywork to AI assistants that can answer questions and automate workflows
- Checkins: Stay in sync without endless status meetings through automatic daily or weekly updates
- Prioritized Inbox: Focus on what matters most with intelligent notification control and reminders
- Direct messaging: Private 1:1 conversations when needed
- Workspace search: Powerful search across all conversations and content
- Integrations: Connect with GitHub, Stripe, and other tools
- Mobile apps: iOS and Android applications (coming soon)
Target Users: Small distributed teams, remote companies, startups, and any organization looking to replace chaotic chat apps with more organized, async-first communication.
Unique Selling Points: Cushion addresses the fundamental problems with traditional workplace messaging by providing structure through posts, reducing notification overload with intelligent inbox management, and leveraging AI to automate routine tasks. The platform offers a 30-day free trial with no credit card required, followed by a simple $8/month per member pricing model.
