Why people use Slack

Slack : Automating Team Communication for Faster Project Updates

This Connector changes that. You just ask your agent to find the discussion about the Q3 roadmap and summarize it. It pulls the history, finds the relevant bits, and gives you the answer in one go. You stop hunting for info and start using it.
