Show HN: Float – AI Slack layer that handles busywork (1-click setup, free) (website.float-chat.com)

4 points by FloatAIMsging ↗ HN
Hey HN, I'm Jari and I built an AI Slack laye that lives in your Slack workspace.

*What it does:* Drafts responses, summarizes long threads, finds information across your workspace history, and answers questions – all in natural language.

*The problem:* You're drowning in Slack messages. The average knowledge worker spends 2+ hours/day in Slack, much of it searching for info, re-reading threads, or writing the same updates over and over.

*How it works:* 1-click connect Float to your Slack (Not Admin required). That's it. 5 seconds total. Then you can ask it things like "what's the status on the redesign project?" or "draft a response to Sarah's question about the API."

*What's different:* Unlike Slack's AI (which requires Enterprise plan and only does search/summaries), this actually takes actions for you. And unlike ChatGPT integrations, it has full context of your workspace without you having to copy-paste everything.

*Stack:* Built with [mention tech if interesting] and runs on [architecture details if relevant to HN audience].

*Try it free:* [GitHub repo link] and [product link]. Free tier gives you 100 AI interactions/month. No credit card.

I'd love feedback on what features would actually be useful vs. what's just noise. What Slack tasks eat up your time?

Wow I am a sucker for great UX cool project, recommend checking out
Interesting! The setup was easier than other options I've seen, and I really liked the intuitive keyboard shortcuts!

Looking forward to more features

Ever since moving to Slack I missed SuperHuman. Thanks!
