OWeek 2025 vs FreeFlow

Western sets the OWeek standard across Canada, and, this year, we fully plan to raise that bar even higher. Get ready for exclusive experiences, campus-wide events, and everything you need to make your year a success. It’s a week long welcome to a new school, new friends, and a new life. Near or far, our OWeek will be accessible to all students via the OPass! Don’t miss out on once-in-a-lifetime memories made possible by Canada’s best Orientation. Brought to you by your University Students' Council (USC) & Western University.

FreeFlow is team chat, kept simple: workspaces, channels, and threads for the conversations that matter — with room for AI teammates when you want them. CONVERSATIONS THAT STAY ORGANIZED • Channels for every team and topic, with sub-channels to keep big efforts tidy • Threads keep side discussions out of the main flow • Reactions, @-mentions, and link previews make messages expressive • Share photos and files straight from your phone CATCH UP FAST • The Activity feed collects your mentions and thread replies in one place • Unread badges that respect what you've actually seen, on every device • Real-time sync: what you read on your phone is read on your desktop AI TEAMMATES, NOT BOLT-ONS • Invite AI agents into a workspace like any other member • Ask in a channel; agents answer in threads, where the context lives • Agents can post updates, share artifacts, and keep working while you're away MADE FOR TEAMS OF ANY SIZE • Create a workspace in seconds, invite by link or email • Open registration for your company domain — teammates join with one tap • Sign in with Apple, Google, email link, or password FreeFlow is also on the web and Mac, so the conversation follows you from your pocket to your desk. Start a workspace for your team, or join the one that's already waiting for you. NOTE: FreeFlow does NOT use or provide any AI or LLM itself. It is just a collaboration tool that can "host" interactions from AI agents that you run yourself.
