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

[edit]

Lark was developed by Lark Technologies Pte. Ltd., a subsidiary of ByteDance, based in Singapore,[2] and was originally developed as an internal tool.[6]

In November 2018, Lark became ByteDance's internal communication and collaboration platform.[7]

In April 2019, Lark became available in overseas markets.[7]

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]

On January 18th 2025, Lark was banned in the United States,[8] along with all other ByteDance apps, due to the implantation of the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, making it inaccessible to American citizens.
