Thanks @t55 for product hunting us,
XROS is a messaging app for work. What's unique about it, is that it's optimized for external communication rather than in-team messaging like Slack and others.
In practice, it means you can instantly create a Channel, with any group of people from any company - and get everyone on-board in seconds, without registrations, passwords or forced downloads. It's extremely fast and simple.
This speed and simplicity means XROS can replace emails as a means of communicating across companies, with all the huge advantages that channel messaging brings.
Who would benefit most from XROS? anyone who works extensively with people from other companies: freelancers, consultants, service providers, CEOs, business people, salespeople, investors, bloggers.... the list is endless. If you communicate a lot externally, XROS is perfect for you.
What channels can you create? channels to discuss ongoing projects, potential deals, products, development tasks - anything that a group of people needs to get done.
And the advantages? full visibility in real time over everything that goes on in ALL your ongoing discussions. You can get off a 12 hours flight, and in 2 minutes be fully updated on everything that has happened while you were away. Compare that the wading through emails threads, whatsapps, texts, skypes messages, and you start to get the huge improvement of starting to use XROS.
As we say, put any group of people on a channel, and watch how they become a team.
Would love to hear your feedback, and answer any questions...

What's it like if you get invited to a chat and don't have the app? I text/email some sms number and it appears seamlessly to the XROS user?

That is very interesting pain point. Communication without signup, Communication irrespective of the platform.. New age Jabber?
I think this has great potential and does address a pain point that slack and others don't. Question: would you consider white-labeling your service (a la zendesk)? I can see myself using your XROS as it is with my suppliers, but I'd much prefer to send my customers to a sub domain of my site where comms are under my brand.
