The problem it solves

Important updates and decisions happen in Slack threads all week, but by Monday half of it is buried or forgotten. Catching everyone up means scrolling back through dozens of messages just to remember what actually got decided.

Who it fits

Team or project leads managing a busy Slack channel who want a quick recap without reading every thread.

How it works

  1. Every Monday morning, the system gathers the past week's Slack messages
  2. Messages are grouped by team member and their replies
  3. AI pulls out the key highlights from each person's activity
  4. AI combines everyone's highlights into one team-wide summary
  5. The finished report is posted back to the Slack channel
What you get

A Monday recap of what your team did

Every Monday, a short readable recap of the week's Slack activity for your team lands right back in the channel.

What you get

A short, easy-to-read weekly summary posted to your Slack channel.

What you need

A Slack workspace and a Google Gemini API account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
