Slack Q&A Agent

Overview

Get instant, sourced answers to team questions by searching your Notion workspace and Slack conversations together. This agent surfaces the right information, flags conflicts, and tells you when it doesn't know.

Who it's for

Teams that store knowledge across Notion and Slack and need a reliable way to find answers without digging through both manually.

What's included

• Notion search: Looks up documentation, SOPs, policies, project pages, and knowledge bases to find authoritative answers.
• Slack search: Pulls in recent discussions, decisions, and project context to complement official documentation.
• Source-linked responses: Every answer includes links to the Notion pages or Slack conversations it drew from.
• Conflict detection: When sources disagree, the agent surfaces both with dates rather than silently picking one.
• Uncertainty handling: Clearly states when an answer cannot be verified and suggests where the missing information should live.
• Mention trigger: Activated when you mention the agent in Notion, so it fits naturally into your existing workflow.
• Read-only guardrails: Never modifies Notion content, sends Slack messages, or makes decisions on your behalf.

How to use it

1. Add the agent to your workspace: Install and connect it to your Notion workspace and a Slack workspace.
2. Mention the agent: In any Notion page, type "@" followed by the agent's name to trigger it.
3. Ask your question: Type a natural-language question, such as "What is our client onboarding process?" or "Who owns the product roadmap?"
4. Review the answer: The agent replies with a direct answer, source links, and any relevant caveats or conflicts.
5. Follow up or refine: Ask follow-up questions in the same thread, or note gaps the agent flags so your team can fill missing documentation.
