Lark – Team Collaboration

What is Lark?

Lark is a unified workspace designed for teams that need to communicate, schedule, create documents, and hold video calls without juggling multiple applications. Developed by LARK TECHNOLOGIES PTE. LTD., the app is offered free of charge and aims to streamline everyday collaboration.

Main features

• Integrated chat – Real‑time messaging with support for file sharing and threaded conversations.
• Document editor – Create and edit text documents directly in the app, with built‑in templates for quick start.
• Calendar – Schedule meetings, set reminders, and view team availability in a shared calendar.
• Video meetings – Start or join video calls from within the app, reducing the need for separate conferencing tools.
• File sharing – Upload, organize, and share files securely with team members.

How it works

After installing Lark, you create a workspace for your team. Within the workspace you can open a chat channel, start a document, or set up a meeting. All items are linked, so a conversation can reference a document or a calendar event, and participants can join a video call directly from a chat thread.

Practical uses

• Remote teams can keep conversations, schedules, and files together, reducing context switching.
• Project groups can draft proposals in the document editor while discussing changes in chat.
• Managers can view team calendars to plan meetings that fit everyone’s availability.
