AI Slack Assistant
Connect Slack to catch up, summarize a channel, get a daily digest, and draft replies.
Nothing sends until you start, and you can change anything afterwards.
What you get
- Text in the chat Copy it wherever you need it. Keep chatting to adjust the tone, length, or wording.
How it works
- Ask in plain words: what needs you, a channel or thread to summarize, the channels for a digest, or a message to write.
- askROI searches and reads only what the request needs in your connected Slack, opening threads where a decision or question lives.
- Read the answer in the chat, or have askROI post, draft, or schedule the message in Slack.
What people use it for
- Catching up a short list of the asks, reviews, and approvals waiting on you, separated from what you can skim.
- Channel and thread recaps a busy channel or a long thread turned into decisions, owners, and open questions, grouped by topic.
- Daily digests one read covering the channels, people, or topics you follow, with what needs you at the top.
- Messages and announcements an update written in Slack formatting, then posted, saved as a draft, or scheduled.
- Reply drafts a draft for each message still waiting on your answer, in the tone of the thread.
- Search and canvases find where something was decided, or write a summary or plan into a Slack canvas.
Questions
Do I need to connect Slack?
Yes. The first time you ask, askROI shows a Connect Slack card in the chat. Sign in to Slack and approve access, and the request runs on your Slack messages and channels. You can switch Slack off for one chat from the composer's plus button, or disconnect it from Integrations.
Is it free?
Yes. You can connect Slack and use it in chat on the free plan. Paid plans raise the usage limits and include more credits for Premium mode.
What can it do in Slack?
It catches you up on what needs you, summarizes a channel or thread, writes a daily digest of the channels, people, or topics you choose, drafts replies to messages waiting on you, writes and posts, drafts, or schedules a message, and finds past decisions. Ask in plain words; you do not need a separate tool for each job.
Will it post without asking?
No. A catch-up, summary, digest, or search answer stays in the chat. askROI posts, sends, or schedules a Slack message only when you ask, saves reply drafts in Slack for you to review first, and asks for the channel or thread when the destination is unclear. It never adds @channel or @here unless you ask.
Can I get a digest every day automatically?
Yes. Ask askROI to run the digest as an automation every weekday morning, and connect Email Reports if you want it sent to your inbox.
What does it not do?
It does not read Slack's unread count: a catch-up searches your mentions, direct messages, and threads you are in, so it is a best-effort view, and it says so when coverage is partial. It does not create or archive channels, edit or delete posted messages, overwrite a draft that already exists, change permissions, or manage workspace settings.
