really? I thought they were pretty much a direct competitor except with a different take on the whole idea. What's the use case for Quip then ?

Quip is a wiki. Use it to write and share documents. Slack is a communication tool. Use it to have conversations.

At my job we use Quip strictly for collaborative design docs (i.e. architectural design, project scope, tutorials etc). Personally I don't think it can be a true wiki platform since it lacks robust indexing -- this is without doubt its biggest shortcoming.

A wiki? I thought it was an electric toothbrush!

Quip competes with Office 365/Gsuite, not Microsoft Teams/Gchat.

We used it as a google docs alternative
