Slack
Reads threads in channels you pick. Drafts arrive as a DM with Confirm, Edit and Dismiss. Adds /because.
Integrations
It listens where your team already talks.
Connect the tools where decisions happen. Because only reads the channels and projects you choose, and only keeps what becomes a record.
All integrations

Same as Slack, for channels and group chats. Drafts arrive as an adaptive card.
