Slack message search
Search Slack messages with AI
Ask for what you remember, not the exact words. Your AI searches your Slack chats, reads around the match and tells you what was said, by whom and when.
Free to start. No install. Every send needs your OK.
How it works
-
You describe what you need
Ask in plain words, like the address from last month or the price a client agreed to.
-
Your AI searches your chats
It searches the text of your shared Slack chats, can try other words when the first search misses, and can narrow down to one chat.
search_messages -
It quotes the message
You get the message, the chat it is in and the time it was sent, and your AI can read the messages around it for context.

Good to know
- Search covers the text of the chats you shared, including photo and file captions.
- Your AI can only find messages ConnectChats has received. Each newly linked chat starts with its most recent history, then everything new.
- Search results are marked as written by other people, so your AI treats them as data, never as instructions.
Questions
Is this better than the search built into Slack?
It is different. Built-in search needs the exact words. Your AI can try several phrasings, search across all your shared chats at once and read the messages around a match.
Can I search all my chat apps at once?
Yes. One search covers every chat app you linked and shared chats from, or one app, or one chat, depending on what you ask.
Does searching send anything to Slack?
No. Searching only reads the chats you shared. Nothing is posted to Slack.
