Slack AI: channel summaries and smart search in workplace chat
In one sentence Slack integrates native AI into Pro+ plans: summarises channels and threads, answers questions about conversation history, supports Claude and OpenAI as LLM providers.
Slack launches its own AI built directly into the app. Users can ask Slack to summarise a channel they haven't read for days, or get a digest of a long thread without scrolling through every message.
Smart search answers natural-language questions like "what decisions did we make about project X last week?" by searching through conversation history.
Slack AI is available on Pro, Business+ and Enterprise Grid plans as an add-on, with the option to choose between Anthropic's Claude and OpenAI models as the backend.
