Team Features — Teams, Groups, and Direct Messages

How PeerBie Organizes People

PeerBie has three levels of people organization: the Workspace (everyone in your company), Teams (departments or functional groups), and Projects (people working on a specific initiative).

Teams

Teams are persistent groups like “Engineering”, “Marketing”, or “Customer Success.” Members of a team share a private team feed, can be assigned to projects together, and can be mentioned as a group with @Team.

Creating a team: Go to Teams in the left sidebar → + Create Team → add a name and invite members.

Direct Messages

Send a private message to any workspace member:

1. Click the Messages icon in the left sidebar.
2. Click + New Message.
3. Search for the person’s name.
4. Type and send.

You can also start a direct message from someone’s profile page.

Group Messages

Create a group conversation with multiple people:

1. Click + New Message.
2. Add multiple people from the search.
3. Give the group a name (optional).
4. Send your first message.

Threads and Replies

In any feed or message, click Reply on a specific message to start a thread. Threads keep discussions organized without cluttering the main conversation.

@Mentions

Type @name anywhere in PeerBie — posts, task comments, messages — to notify that person directly. Type @team to notify an entire team. The mentioned person receives a notification in their Lucy notifications panel.

Asking Lucy to Send Messages

You can ask Lucy to send a direct message on your behalf: “Send a message to Alex: the design files are ready for review.” Lucy will send it immediately.
