Slite's new AI assistant – Ask – answers questions based on your team's documentation. Take the pain out of finding info, learning from the past, and getting new team mates up to speed. Have a question? Just ask.
I'm so happy to unveil Ask to the world and hear feedback, finally!
If you're curious on the genesis and reasoning behind Ask, read on, else thanks for your support and make sure to join the waitlist!
Large Language Models are not recent, we had been exploring them for a while, but they were brought to a whole new level with OpenAI and @samaltman6 work on chatGPT a couple months ago.
The obvious application in document tools was be to bring it *inside* the editor, to generate content.
That's what various tools, such as Notion and Craft did. We developed this internally as well, and might still release it in some way, but something felt off, or not good enough compared to the magic of chatGPT.
Since the beginning, Slite has been a tool for teams. Not a no code tool, not a 2nd brain for individuals. We optimise it to centralise all your team information, wikis, projects, notes, key decisions, and not for the sake of it.
The goal is of course to deliver this information back. And looking at chatGPT, we knew the future of our tool needed to go in a similar direction.
It was not easy, the team worked extremely hard on this, put a lot of intelligence in the solution, and managed to pull through a great first testable version!
Join the waitlist, we'll be gradually rolling it out, starting with Slite users and teams that see a very strong interest in their business, let us know when you join the waitlist!
We're far from done, we have a ton to learn and to refine on.
The first next brick, for instance, will be to help users deprecate content, and do so automatically. That's the limit of GPT for your docs: there is no page rank like on the web, saying what's true or not, what's still relevant.
We need to make it easy for Slite users, so that Ask can answer based on sources they trust.
Thanks all for the support, thanks so much @tiboel for hunting us, share and send your feedback!
The team will be there to answer all day long.
Hey there,
I'm beyond thrilled to share Ask Slite with the world today!
For the last few months, we've seen players trying to bring the power of advanced language models like GPT to our documents.
But all we've seen so far has been about generating content. Writing more has never really been the issue. On the contrary.
The future is not in creating more noise in teams, but unlocking the vast amount of info your team put years to bring together.
And with Ask, the Slite team finally cracked it!
I've been using it for the past week and I can honestly say that this will change the way we work and collaborate as a team.
The Slite team has worked incredibly hard over the past years to build a flawless product for all team documentation. With Ask, it now combined it with the power of large language models, and it's brilliant.
It's like having a team assistant you can query on anything your team has ever thought, or done.
I've been using Slite for years to document decisions and learnings.
Ask is a major step forward in how we work and collaborate, beautifully integrated into the product we already love.
@christophepas and team, you nailed it once again. Bravo, keep it up 👏👏
I love the Slite approach in many things they do! And here I definitely love the "get the answer from the company knowledge base" more than many ai stuff we see in the market. congrats to @christophepas and team :)
When our team demo'd the early version of Ask early on, it was so clear this is a huge step for how team's interact with their knowledge.
Huuuge props to the whole Slite team! 👏👏👏
Great idea! Having Ask available to answer questions about team documentation quickly and conversationally has to be a lifesaver for companies. What types of questions does the AI understand?
@codecamcode 100%! It can answer many questions based on the documentation in your workspace. We see that it's especially valuable for basic company information, handbooks, policies, culture-related things, well-documented workflows, onboarding 🙌
Brilliant! Spent way too much time on getting the right info in the middle of a doc, or looking at the outdated doc.
Glad Ask by Slite will help us all at Fairmint save time and get the right info in seconds. 🚀🚀🚀
@simonrobic 🤯 was exactly my face the first time we tried it with the team - feel free to take a spin at slite.com/ask, I would love to see what's the next emoji 😸 PS.: thanks for the support ✨
