Case Study: Assist achieves tool consolidation and seamless team collaboration with Quip

The Search for Simplicity: How Assist Runs on Quip

Assist is a startup that builds a messaging-first search app and wanted a simpler, more unified way to run the company. Faced with tool sprawl (Slack, SMS, separate project docs) and a distributed, mobile team, Assist turned to Quip as their single hub for chat, project management, docs, spreadsheets, a company wiki, and integrations with services like Twitter, Stripe, Crashlytics, and GitHub.

Quip consolidated Assist’s communication and work into one place—moving chat into Quip, creating group channels, pinning a top-level wiki for onboarding and company history, and surfacing notifications from other tools—so the team eliminated channel confusion and reduced tool switching. The result was a leaner, more transparent workflow with better mobile collaboration, a single source of record for projects and culture, and faster visibility across the company thanks to Quip.
