Ugh, the dreaded Slack scroll. You come back from a meeting, and there are hundreds of unread messages. But fear not, Slack’s new AI tool has your back! Introducing “Recap” – think of it as your personalized Slack news digest.
How it Works:
- Choose Your Channels: Tell Recap which Slack channels matter most to you.
- Daily Summary: It’ll scan those channels and deliver a neat little summary in your sidebar.
- People + Links: Recap even highlights specific people mentioned and gives you direct links to jump back into the conversation.
Why You’ll Love It:
“Recap” is perfect for those “nice to know” updates that don’t need your immediate attention. It’s like catching up on the news without having to sift through endless comment threads.
More AI Goodies for Everyone
Remember those fancy AI features that were only for the big-budget Slack plans? Well, now they’re available for a small add-on to most paid tiers. This includes:
- The “TLDR” Tool: Get AI-generated summaries of lengthy conversations.
- Supercharged Search: Ask Slack questions in plain English, and it’ll find the relevant messages.
The Techy Details (for the curious)
Slack’s keeping mum about the specific AI models they use, but rest assured, your data stays safe within their servers. They’re not playing fast and loose with your sensitive company info.
The Price Tag
This AI magic will cost you an extra $10 a month on top of your existing Slack plan. Sorry, freebie users, you’ll need to upgrade for a taste of the future.
