, the enterprise version of Facebook that it once hoped might rival Slack and other office productivity tools.
“We are discontinuing Workplace from Meta so we can focus on building AI and metaverse technologies that we believe will fundamentally reshape the way we work,” the spokesman said in a statement. The company said it will help existing customers transition to Zoom Video Communications’ Workvivo product, a similar enterprise-focused social network, over the next few years.
Meta once had ambitious plans for Workplace and viewed it as a way to make money through subscriptions as well as a chance to extend Facebook’s reach by infusing the product into work and office settings. At one point, Meta touted a list of high-profile customers, including Starbucks, Walmart and Spotify Technology.
