HyperTeams vs Lindy
Lindy is a managed AI teammate that works inside Slack and email. HyperTeams is a control room that runs several of your coding agents in folders on your own machine, on the subscription you already have.

Why HyperTeams over Lindy
Lindy is a managed AI teammate: call it from Slack, email or iMessage and it works across your connected apps, with team approvals and per-person credit caps. HyperTeams is stronger when the work has to run on your own computer. It runs Claude Code, ChatGPT Codex or Antigravity, several at a time, in your folders and with the tools you already installed, on the subscription you already pay for; instructions and results stay on your machine, and several machines pool into one list. HyperTeams neither replaces Lindy nor drives it. Keep email, meetings and Slack requests in Lindy and put folder work in HyperTeams; they sit side by side.
Whose computer it runs on
It runs on Lindy's service and, when it has to work a screen, on a cloud computer Lindy provides. It moves between your connected apps.
The control room runs on your computer, in registered folders, with the tools you already installed. Instructions and results stay there.
Your subscription, not seats and credits
Each person takes a seat, and work draws on the workspace credit pool.
Claude Code, ChatGPT Codex or Antigravity run on the Claude or ChatGPT subscription or Google account you already pay for. Only features that cross into a team are metered in credits.
Approving app writes vs approving work on your machine
Each integration is set to always allow or require approval, and in shared Slack threads the requester or an admin approves. Web chat, DMs and iMessage are not covered by those guardrails.
HyperTeams Connect puts policy per folder and command on the machine doing the work, with pre-approval per item. Who approved what, and when, is kept as a policy audit trail.
When several computers do the work
The work runs on their service. It is not a place to pool several machines of your own.
A control room per machine, all of them in one list, including which machine is awake right now.

Lindy docsWhat the control room does, and what Connect does
HyperTeams is two products. Which of them answers each row above is exactly where the boundary sits.
HyperTeams System
Runs the work on your machine
A program you install with one command. It assigns work per folder, runs jobs in parallel, and keeps going after you close the window. While you work alone, this is all you need.
- Where it runs
- Several jobs at once
- How far along it is
- If you close the window
- At a set time
HyperTeams Connect
Makes it something others rely on, unattended
It starts paying the moment there is a second machine and a second person: pooling machines into one list, filtering work others assign through approval, keeping an audit trail of what happened, and splitting cost per person.
- Several machines in one place
- When someone else assigns work
- Retracing it later
- What it cost
When do you move up a rung?
- L1 · Observe
You watch several machines. The moment there is a second one.
- L2 · Share
The team sees what was asked for. The moment you start sharing one password.
- L3 · Delegate
Others assign work and see the results. This is where approval, policy, and audit earn their place.
Running both
You don't remove or migrate what you use today. Here is how to layer HyperTeams on top of it.
- 1
Leave Lindy running
Keep email triage, meeting notes and Slack requests in Lindy.
- 2
Install the control room with one command
Paste one command on the machine that will do the work. It drives the Claude Code, ChatGPT Codex or Antigravity you have, on the subscription you already pay for.
- 3
Move the work that needs your machine
Send only the work that touches code, files, your folders and installed tools through HyperTeams. Neither drives the other; they sit side by side.
Which one should you pick?
When to just use Lindy
When Slack and email are where you work
Call it from Slack, Gmail, iMessage or Chrome, and it joins meetings as a participant to record and summarize. For office-assistant work it is far more polished.
When the work hops between SaaS apps
Over 1,000 integrations plus MCP servers, and outward-facing writes can be set to wait for approval.
When there must be no computer to keep on
It runs on their service, so there is nothing to install and no machine to leave on. It carries certifications such as SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA.
When HyperTeams is the answer
When the work is code and files
HyperTeams SystemPut the Claude Code, ChatGPT Codex or Antigravity you already use to work in your folders. Edit the result right there, with a history of what changed and when.
When you hand off several jobs at once
HyperTeams SystemEvery job gets its own card; hand over five and five run in five folders. It keeps going after you close the window, and your phone tells you when it is done.
When others assign work to your machine
HyperTeams ConnectAccounts and roles, policy per folder and command, and pre-approval per item filter it, and who approved what, and when, is kept.
When there is more than one machine
HyperTeams ConnectPut the office computer and the server in one list and see at a glance which of them is awake.
A layer, not a replacement
Put it on top of what you already run
One command to install. Nothing you use today gets removed or moved — you only add the command screen above it.

Common questions
Lindy is a managed AI teammate you call from Slack, Gmail, iMessage and similar places. It works across connected apps to handle email, meetings, research and scheduled routines, and is paid per seat with credits.
Not as an office assistant. HyperTeams is a control room that runs several coding agents on your own computer, so it is the right fit when the work involves code and files. Keeping email and Slack work in Lindy and using both is the natural setup.
Yes. Neither replaces the other; they sit side by side. Email, meetings and Slack go to Lindy; work in your own folders goes through HyperTeams.
Lindy bills per seat plus its own credits. HyperTeams System uses the Claude or ChatGPT subscription you already have, and only the HyperTeams Connect features that cross into a team are metered in credits.
With the control room, instructions and results stay on your computer; the only thing leaving it is the question going to the AI you picked. Lindy works on its own service and states that your data is never sold or used for training.
