The problem it solves

Important messages in Slack get buried in the scroll within days, and copying them into Notion by hand is easy to forget. You need a reliable way to hold onto the good stuff without adding it to your to-do list.

Who it fits

A team or community manager that wants to preserve important Slack conversations without manual copying.

How it works

  1. You react to a Slack message with a star
  2. Every 10 minutes, the system checks for newly starred messages
  3. AI writes a short title and assigns a matching tag
  4. The message, title, tag, and a link back to Slack are saved to Notion
What you get

Starred moments kept without retyping a thing

Any Slack message you star gets saved to Notion with an AI-written title and tag, plus a link back to the original.

What you get

A new page in your Notion database with the saved message, an AI-written title, and tags.

What you need

A Slack workspace, a Notion account, and an OpenAI 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.
