Slack integration: alerts and a co-worker in a DM

Connect Slack once. Hot conversations land in a channel, and Oetzi answers you in a DM with the morning standup, a button on any spend, one memory everywhere.

By Max Gillespie, founder of Oetzi

Slack is where a team already reads. Oetzi's Slack integration puts two things there. Hot conversations arrive in a channel the moment they qualify, with the score and the reason. And Oetzi answers you in a direct message the way it answers over text: the morning standup across every workspace you own, a hot match as it lands, a word or a button to approve anything it would spend, and a plain answer to "what happened this week".

How do I add Oetzi to Slack?

Open Add to Slack. It asks you to sign in to Oetzi if you are not, then hands you to Slack's consent screen, where you pick the channel for alerts. Two clicks, no app to create on your side. The same button lives under Settings in the portal.

What does Oetzi post in a Slack channel?

Conversations with a high intent score arrive as soon as they qualify, with the author, the score, the reason they matched, and buttons that open the conversation and the drafted reply. Warm ones ride a daily digest instead. Replies to your own posts arrive the same way, with a draft answer under each. Each workspace connects to its own channel, and the switches for hot alerts and the digest live in Settings.

How do I get Oetzi to answer me in Slack?

The person who installs the app is linked at once. Anyone else on the team sends the app a direct message, gets a link back, and opens it while signed in to Oetzi. From then on the DM is a conversation with the same growth hacker that answers over iMessage and in the portal.

The standup lands at 8 in your timezone with numbered actions. Reply a digit and Oetzi does that thing. Anything that spends credits, publishes under your name, or cannot be undone is held: you see the price, the word, and two buttons. The word typed, the button, or a check mark reaction runs it. No cancels it. Mention the app in a channel and it answers in a thread under your message.

Does Slack know what I said over text?

Yes. One memory sits under every channel. If you approved a post in the portal, the Slack DM and the text thread each get one line saying so and neither asks again. "Switch to" changes the workspace everywhere. A preference said in plain words ("never post on weekends") is kept wherever you said it. The trust ladder is the same one: after a clean streak Oetzi proposes doing the work on its own, and moves only on a yes.

What does it cost?

Nothing extra. Slack messages carry no charge, and a reply from Oetzi in Slack costs the same as the same question in the portal. Posts, drafts and checks spend the credits they always did, quoted before they run. The pricing page has the numbers.

Questions

Can Oetzi answer in a shared Slack channel?

Mention the app in the channel and it answers in a thread under your message, scoped to the workspace your Slack account is linked to. Direct messages are the quieter place for the standup and the daily back and forth, so the channel stays for alerts the whole team reads.

What if I stop wanting DMs?

Send STOP and the DMs end while Oetzi still answers when you write. FEWER keeps only the morning standup. PAUSE 7 is a week of quiet. START brings everything back. Settings shows the same switches and an Unlink button.

Do I need a Slack app of my own?

No. One Oetzi app installs into your Slack through Slack's own consent screen, where you pick the channel. Slack's install guide covers what the consent screen asks. A pasted incoming webhook still works for alerts alone.
