Lark Suite is an enterprise collaboration platform developed by ByteDance and first released to the public in 2019.[2][3][4][5]
Lark and its China -only equivalent Feishu ("flying message") operate independently of one another and store user data separately (Lark in Singapore, Feishu in Beijing).[2]
History
Lark was developed by Lark Technologies Pte. Ltd., a subsidiary of ByteDance based in Singapore,[2] and was originally developed as an internal tool.
In November 2018, Lark became ByteDance's internal communication and collaboration platform.[6]
In April 2019, Lark[7] became available in overseas markets.[6]
In March 2020, ByteDance prepared to release a "Google-like suite of office collaboration tools" (referencing Google Workspace) focusing on cloud-based file management and document and spreadsheet editing.[2]
In April 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Lark made its service available for free across Southeast Asia.[5]
