Team Communicator
The Team Communicator brings team conversation into the link management platform — keeping discussion, review and approval in the same place as the links themselves.
Definition
The Team Communicator is a built-in messaging feature within Cuttly's team workspace that enables team members to communicate and share links directly inside the platform — without switching to external messaging tools for link-related coordination.
Most team link management workflows involve more than one person: a link is created, reviewed, potentially edited, approved for campaign use and then distributed. Without in-platform communication, each step involves switching between the link management dashboard and an external tool (Slack, email, Teams), with the link being copy-pasted back and forth between them. The Team Communicator keeps this workflow contained in one place.
How It Works
The Team Communicator is accessible from the team workspace dashboard. Team members can:
- Send messages to the team or specific team members within the platform
- Share specific links from the workspace directly in messages — the linked item appears with its name, destination and analytics summary
- Coordinate on link destination review, campaign tag decisions and naming convention questions
- Receive notifications about workspace activity relevant to their role
The Tool-Switching Problem in Link Management
Consider a typical agency workflow without in-platform communication:
- Account manager creates a draft link in Cuttly
- Copies the link URL and pastes it into Slack to share with the team lead for review
- Team lead opens the link in a browser to check the destination, then replies in Slack with feedback
- Account manager switches back to Cuttly to make the edit
- Account manager copies the updated link again and posts in Slack to confirm the change
- Team lead confirms in Slack; account manager marks the task done in their project management tool
The same workflow with the Team Communicator: link is created, shared directly in the in-platform communicator, reviewed from within the platform, edited and confirmed — all without leaving Cuttly. The communication history is associated with the workspace context, not distributed across an external messaging platform.
Availability
The Team Communicator is available as part of the Cuttly Team plan ($99/month flat) and Team Enterprise plan ($149/month flat). It is a workspace feature — not available on individual plans.

Why have a communicator inside a URL shortener platform?

The Team Communicator keeps the link and the conversation about it in the same place, reducing context switching and keeping history in context.
