From chat to intelligent collaboration
Slack has always been a place for teamwork, but now, it’s becoming a place for intelligent action.
With SlackGPT, Salesforce is redefining how organizations communicate, automate, and collaborate across departments.
Instead of jumping between tools, teams can now ask questions, update records, and get instant insights, all within Slack.
This is the next generation of productivity inside the Salesforce ecosystem.
What is SlackGPT?
SlackGPT is Salesforce’s AI-powered assistant embedded directly in Slack.
It combines the natural language processing of OpenAI with Salesforce data and workflows, giving users context-aware, automated responses.
It can:
Summarize conversations or meetings.
Generate follow-up tasks or Salesforce records.
Surface CRM data in response to natural language prompts.
Trigger automated workflows connected to Salesforce Flows.
In short, it turns Slack from a communication tool into an AI command center for your business.
How SlackGPT integrates with Salesforce
SlackGPT connects to Salesforce via secure APIs and Einstein GPT, allowing both platforms to share context and data.
Example use cases:
“Show me all open Opportunities over $50K” → SlackGPT pulls data directly from Salesforce.
“Summarize this week’s customer support cases” → SlackGPT uses Einstein data to create a summary.
“Create a new task for Mariana in Salesforce” → SlackGPT logs the record automatically.
These commands save hours each week while ensuring that CRM data stays accurate and updated.

Example in action
Imagine your sales team starts the day with a Slack message from SlackGPT:
“Good morning team! You have 5 opportunities closing this week totaling $230K. Two are at risk. Would you like me to notify the account owners?”
With a single click, SlackGPT updates records, sends alerts, and schedules reminders, all without opening Salesforce.
That’s the kind of intelligent automation that saves time and keeps teams aligned.

By using natural language to access CRM data, generate insights, and automate tasks, teams can focus less on searching and more on doing.
It’s collaboration, reimagined through AI.
