Design-team Slack knowledge assistant
Toss designers used a Slack bot to draft answers from earlier discussions
Problem
A designer repeatedly received questions about design decisions and requirements. Answering them consumed time that could have gone to other work.
Approach
A designer built a Slack bot that drafted replies using earlier discussion messages and reference material. Designers decided whether to send or revise each draft. Toss reported that other designers had started making their own bots.
Results
No published figures
Takeaway
The bot reused existing team knowledge while leaving designers responsible for replies. Toss did not quantify time saved by this assistant.
