A searchable database for your Slack conversations.

Archively connects to Slack and turns every channel, thread, and DM into one searchable database you can query in plain English. Built for founders and ops teams who need to find the decision, the context, or the customer mention without scrolling for twenty minutes through #general.

— The problem

Slack remembers everything. You can't find any of it.

Every important call, every customer signal, every weird bug your engineer flagged at 11 PM — it all happened in Slack. And then it sank, four thousand messages deep, into a channel you stopped checking last quarter.

01
Slack search misses the point.
Native search returns matches by keyword, not by meaning. Ask "what did we decide about pricing?" and you get every message that ever mentioned the word "pricing." The actual decision is somewhere on page four.
02
Knowledge dies in threads.
A customer interview, a bug post-mortem, a hiring debate — all of it lives inside a thread nobody pinned. New team members never see it. The team that wrote it has already forgotten.
03
Free Slack plans hide the past.
Messages older than 90 days disappear from search on free workspaces. Even on paid plans, a year of conversation is functionally invisible — there but unfindable when you actually need it.
— The solution

Scroll forty channels. Ask Archively once.

Connect your Slack workspace once. Archively reads every channel, thread, and DM you give it access to and builds a real searchable database — indexed by meaning, not just keywords. Ask plain questions like "what did we agree on the refund policy last month?" and get the answer with the original message linked, every time. No more digging. No more lost decisions.

— Where it earns its keep

Three jobs Slack alone can't handle.

Built for B2B SaaS teams where the answers exist somewhere in Slack but nobody has the time or memory to dig them out. These are the moments Archively pays for itself.

For founders
Catch up without scrolling.

Skipped #product for a week of investor meetings? Get a clean summary of what was decided, what shipped, and what's stuck — pulled from the actual threads, not a teammate's memory.

Summarize the key decisions in #product this week.
For ops teams
Track customer pain in real time.

Every customer mention scattered across #support, #cs, and DMs, pulled into one searchable view. Know which accounts asked for the same feature three times before churning.

Which customers mentioned billing issues in the last 60 days?
For team leads
Onboard people in a day, not a month.

New hires can ask Archively the same questions they'd otherwise ask the team. Answers come straight from past Slack conversations, with sources linked. Senior staff get their afternoons back.

— Common questions

How does Archively create a searchable database for Slack?

Archively indexes your Slack channels and uses semantic search to understand the context of your team's messages. Unlike Slack's native search, which looks for exact words, Archively understands the "intent" of your question and finds the relevant discussion threads across public and private channels.

Is my private Slack data secure?

Yes. Archively only indexes channels you explicitly authorize. Furthermore, it respects Slack's internal permission model — users can only search for and see answers derived from channels they are already members of.

Can it summarize long Slack threads?

Yes. Instead of reading through hundreds of messages, you can ask Archively "What was the conclusion of the discussion about the API redesign?" and it will provide a concise summary of the thread with links to the key messages.

Does it index files shared in Slack?

Yes. Archively indexes the text content of PDFs, Word docs, and text files uploaded to Slack channels, making your shared assets as searchable as your messages.

Can I use Archively within Slack?

Yes. Archively includes a Slack bot that allows your team to ask questions and get answers directly within your Slack workspace, without needing to open a separate browser tab.
