What is TeamBrain, and how does it work?

TeamBrain is a shared workspace where a team stores files, notes, decisions and tasks so that the AI assistants each member already uses can read and write the same context. Users connect Claude, ChatGPT or another MCP-compatible client by pasting a TeamBrain address, then ask their AI to save work into the workspace instead of a chat window. The product adds light project management (Kanban boards, calendars, tasks), decision logs with reasoning, collections for organizing by project or client, guest accounts for contractors, comments, and a daily email summary of what changed.

  1. Open a collection for a client project.
  2. Tell your AI: file these meeting notes under this client's folder.
  3. Ask the AI to log the decision and its reasoning.
  4. Have a teammate's AI pull the latest on the client.
