Introducing Chats: Start Conversations On GoKollab

Chats in Patient Copilot’s GoKollab enable direct, member-to-member messaging inside your communities. By keeping conversations in-platform, you can collaborate faster, follow up efficiently, and keep discussion history in one place. Use Chats to connect with peers you share a community with—without switching tools.

What is GoKollab Chats?

Chats is GoKollab’s built-in direct messaging experience for members who share a community.

Messages live inside GoKollab, helping you keep context, continuity, and momentum across your work.
