   What is nest54?

One place for all your project work—instead of ten different tools

In many teams, work is scattered: files in one cloud, decisions in a messenger, meetings in the email client, tasks in yet another app, and calls in a separate video tool. Add clients and partners, and it gets even messier—everyone uses something different, and documents bounce back and forth by email.

nest54 is a browser-based collaboration platform that brings all of this together. Every project gets a workspace with files, office documents, chat, video meetings, a calendar, a board, polls, and its own dashboard. Everyone in the workspace sees what they need—whether they're a colleague, a client, or a subcontractor.

Organizations

Every company has its own organization with its own accounts, policies, domains, and encryption key. Each one decides for itself who it works with.

Workspaces

The shared space for a project, a client, or a team. Members can be individuals or entire groups—including people from other organizations.

Links

Connect files, cards, messages, emails, and events to one another, so every task leads straight to the right document or conversation.

Everything a team needs—already connected

The building blocks of nest54 work together: an email becomes a task, a poll becomes a calendar event, and a meeting becomes a transcript with suggested action items.

### Workspaces One space per project with files, chat, board, calendar, polls, dashboard, apps, and automations—for internal and external members alike. ### Files & sharing Versions, trash, previews, password-protected share links. ### Desktop sync All your organizations as one drive in Windows Explorer. ### Office in the browser Edit documents, spreadsheets, and presentations together. ### Chat Topics, threads, reactions, mentions, paste images with Ctrl+V. ### Video meetings In the browser, with screen sharing and guest links. ### Transcription & AI Consent-based transcripts, summaries, and action items. ### Calendar Personal and per workspace, video meetings, reminders. ### Boards Cards with assignees, due dates, checklists, and files. ### Polls Scheduling polls and surveys, including for guests via link. ### Email & Outlook Microsoft 365 and any IMAP mailbox, with calendar and contacts in sync. ### Fields & dashboards Custom fields and key metrics for every workspace. ### Automations If-this-then-that rules for recurring workflows. ### Apps 20+ services as ready-made mini-apps—GitHub, Figma, Jira, AWS, and more. ### Search Full-text search across everything, even scanned PDFs. ### Collaboration across company lines Partners with their own accounts, guests with read-only access, trust policies per organization—and the data stays with the host. ### Security One permission model, MFA, encryption, audit log. ### SSO & SCIM Sign in with Entra ID, Okta, Google, and more.

Security & privacy

Your data stays in Germany—and in your hands

nest54 is operated as a cloud service on servers in Germany. Office, video meetings, and speech recognition all run on these servers—not with US tech giants.

Hosted in Germany

Operated in a German data center, with nightly backups and regular restore tests.

Encryption

Files are stored encrypted with a dedicated key per organization—and so are credentials for mailboxes and apps.

One permission model

Permissions apply consistently from the workspace down to the file. Admin rights don't grant access to content.

Strong authentication

Two-factor authentication, passkeys, single sign-on via OIDC and SAML, and alerts for new devices.

Fully traceable

Hash-chained audit log with integrity verification, tamper-proof (retention-locked) folders, and legal hold.

AI only if you want it

Each organization decides whether to enable optional AI insights for transcripts; without approval, no content leaves the platform.
