What Lark is

Lark is an all-in-one collaboration suite: chat, video meetings, calendar, documents, spreadsheets, approval flows and a low-code app builder inside one product. The appeal is that a company can replace several subscriptions with one, and that everything shares a single identity and permission model — a document can be mentioned in chat and attached to a calendar event without exporting it. It includes an AI assistant for summarising meetings and drafting documents, and an open platform for building internal apps. The limits are adoption and gravity: it works best when the whole organisation moves at once, migration from another suite is a project rather than a switch, and the breadth means each module is less deep than a specialist tool. Data residency and compliance terms differ by region. Meeting recordings and chat threads can be searched from one place, which is the part that saves time in practice.

Best for

Companies replacing several collaboration subscriptions at once
Teams that live in documents, chat and meetings together
Organisations building small internal apps without engineers

Not ideal for

Teams that need best-in-class depth in one category
Organisations with strict regional data requirements they cannot verify

Pros

One identity and permission model across every module
Documents and chat are connected rather than separate
Free tier covers a small team properly

Cons

Best value only when the whole company migrates
Each module is shallower than a specialist tool
Data terms vary by region

Pricing in detail

The free plan covers a small team with limits on storage, message history and admin features. Paid plans are billed per seat per month and raise storage and history, add advanced meeting features, admin controls and audit logs; enterprise terms include data residency options and are quoted. Because the value depends on replacing other subscriptions, compare against the total of the tools it would displace rather than against one of them.
