History of Halp

We launched Halp in April of 2019, but our story began 3 years ago. Our insight was that message-based communication is fundamentally changing how we work. A shift in the communication layer within the workplace means there is an enormous opportunity to build new ways to track and manage work. Over the past few months, this shift in how we collaborate has accelerated alongside the necessary increase in remote work. Improving how teams communicate and collaborate is more important now that ever. 

We started building on top of the Slack platform in 2017 and honed in on the opportunity to rethink help desk ticketing in a message-based world. Our initial focus was on IT teams, designing a delightful experience for the commonplace #ask-it channel using an emoji to elegantly capture a ticket in a thread. We integrated with Jira Service Desk and Zendesk so that organizations big and small could get up in running in minutes without having to change infrastructure. 

As we grew, something incredible happened. Many different teams outside of IT started using Halp to track their requests. DevOps, Security, Finance, SalesOps, Legal, and many more saw how simple it was to take all the random DMs, emails, and messages and track them in Halp. We are so proud to work with the thousands of amazing teams at forward-thinking companies including Adobe, Showtime, Strava, GitHub,G2 ClassPass, and even the internal teams at Slack.

We are a Jira Service Desk Cloud instance. Is there a cost to installing the Halp app? I would love to try it.
