@AI agent can you fix this?

AI agent Bot 15:04

✅ Done! Found the issue: the onClick handler wasn't firing on touch devices.

What I changed:

• Replaced onClick with onTouchEnd on mobile

• Added a fallback for desktop

## For teams that do their homework

What IT leaders and security teams check before moving their company to a new team chat app.

### Banks and enterprises are already here

Product teams at major banks like Alfa-Bank and PSB work in Pachca, along with Lamoda, Ivi, the 900+ restaurants of Burger King and teams across the Yandex ecosystem.

### One app instead of ten

Threads, video calls for up to 1,000 people with recording and transcripts, tasks and 250+ integrations all live inside Pachca. The discussion, the call about it and the resulting task stay in one thread instead of scattering across different tools.

### Security you control

Hybrid on-premise (BYOK): your data is encrypted with keys from your own infrastructure. Built-in DLP, separate internal and external file access, audit logs and SIEM integration. [More on security](https://pachca.com/en/security).

### Patented cross-chat threads

Pull a colleague into any thread, even if they're not in the chat. The technology is patented, and it saves hundreds of forwards a day. [How cross-chat threads work](https://pachca.com/en/blog/chto-takoe-skvoznye-tredy-i-kak-ih-ispolzovat).

### Agents are part of the team

@mention an agent in any chat or thread. It answers from your knowledge base, recaps discussions, drafts docs and gets things done in your tools. It's not a bot in a separate tab: Pachca is the only team chat app with agent skills and a harness built for agents. [Tools for agents](https://pachca.com/en/blog/pachka-ai-agenty-instrumenty-dlya-razrabotchikov).

### Support from real people

We reply in chat within 10–15 minutes, 7 days a week. Our backlog is driven by user requests, and you can see what's next on our public [roadmap](https://pachca.com/en/roadmap).
