About Slack

Slack is the AI-powered work platform where people, apps, and agents come together. Teams use it to talk, share, and get work done in channels, with the context of every conversation in one place.

Slack and Gamma

Gamma works with Slack in both directions.

Gamma in Slack: Install the Gamma Slack app and mention @Gamma in a channel, thread, or DM to create a presentation, doc, or image. Gamma reads the thread and any attached files as source material, then replies with a link. You can also ask it to find, summarize, or export existing gammas, check views, and reply to comments, and gamma links unfurl as rich previews.

Slack in Gamma: Connect Slack in Gamma and the agent can pull channel discussions in as context when you generate or edit, like turning a week of #product-strategy into a leadership update.

Use Cases

Thread to deck

Mention @Gamma in a long thread and turn the discussion into a summary deck for the exec team.

File to presentation

Attach a report or PDF and ask @Gamma for a 10-slide deck focused on what matters.

Channel recaps

Ask Gamma's agent to summarize a week in #product-strategy into a shareable update.

Try these prompts

In Slack (mention @Gamma in a thread):

@Gamma summarize this thread as a one-pager for the exec team. Lead with the decision and the open questions.

In Gamma (with Slack connected):

Summarize this week's discussion in #product-strategy into a 5-slide leadership update: what we decided, what's still open, and who owns next steps.
