/siftyn Why did product returns increase last month?

Returns increased primarily because of a supplier batch defect. The operations report and two support threads point to the same affected product line.

How it works

Answers in the flow of work, grounded in authorized sources.

Bring in the conversations that matter

Invite Siftyn to selected channels, then synchronize messages, thread replies, and the file context Slack provides with those messages.

Ask with one command

Run /siftyn followed by a question. The initial status and final answer are ephemeral, so they are visible only to the person who asked.

Keep access boundaries intact

Siftyn maps Slack channel membership to search permissions and links answers back to their source so users can verify the evidence.

Installation

Connect a workspace in a few focused steps.

A Siftyn workspace owner or source administrator should complete the connection. Slack may require approval from a workspace administrator.

  1. 1

    Sign in to Siftyn

    Create or open the Siftyn workspace that should own the Slack connection.

  2. 2

    Choose Connect Slack

    Review the requested read-only permissions and authorize the intended workspace.

  3. 3

    Choose the channels

    In Slack, run /invite @Siftyn in each public or private channel you want Siftyn to search. Siftyn does not join channels automatically.

  4. 4

    Test and synchronize

    Return to Sources in Siftyn, test the connection, and start the first sync.

  5. 5

    Ask from Slack

    Use /siftyn your question. Your Slack email must match an active user in the connected Siftyn workspace.

Data access

What Siftyn requests—and why.

Siftyn does not request access to direct messages and cannot edit or delete Slack messages. Customer Slack content is not used to train AI models.

Selected channel history

Reads messages and thread replies only in public or private channels where Siftyn has been invited.

Channel and member information

Uses channel membership to preserve Slack access boundaries when people search in Siftyn.

User identity

Uses Slack profile and email information to match an authorized Slack user to their Siftyn account.

Shared file context

Indexes file names and Slack-provided text previews that appear with authorized channel messages.
