About the Tool

What is Slack AI?

Slack is a leading team communication platform used by millions of organizations worldwide. Slack AI brings intelligent features directly into your workspace, including AI-powered search across conversations, automatic thread and channel summaries, meeting notes from Slack Huddles, and smart notifications that surface the most relevant information for each team member.

Slack organizes communication into channels, direct messages, and threads, providing a structured alternative to email that keeps conversations searchable and organized. The platform integrates with hundreds of third-party tools and supports workflows, automation, and custom apps. Slack AI adds a layer of intelligence on top of these communication streams, helping teams spend less time searching and summarizing and more time on mission-critical work.

For nonprofits, Slack AI offers one of the most generous nonprofit discount programs available: free Pro plan access for organizations with 250 or fewer members, and an 85% discount on both Pro and Business+ plans for larger organizations. This makes Slack AI one of the most cost-effective communication platforms available to the nonprofit sector.

AI Search and Summaries

Search across your entire Slack history with AI-powered results, and get automatic summaries of threads, channels, and Huddle meetings so you never miss important information.

Unlimited Message History

With paid plans, access your organization's complete message history with no 90-day limit, keeping institutional knowledge searchable and accessible.

Workflow Builder

Automate routine communication tasks with Slack's no-code Workflow Builder, reducing repetitive manual work and keeping teams aligned without extra effort.

Deep Integrations

Connect Slack to hundreds of tools your nonprofit already uses, from Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 to Salesforce, Asana, and donor management platforms.
