Slack integration

Buyer intent alerts in Slack

When someone on Reddit, Hacker News, or GitHub asks for a tool like yours, your team sees it in Slack - with the thread link, an excerpt, and a one-click path to draft a reply.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Save a brand and turn on Auto Search

    Add the problem phrases, competitors, and communities you care about. Needle reruns the search on your schedule.

  2. Step 2

    Connect Slack

    In Slack, add an Incoming Webhook to the channel, then paste its URL in Needle Settings and send a test message.

  3. Step 3

    Read alerts in a Slack channel

    Each digest summarizes new leads per brand. Hot leads arrive on their own with the platform, the thread title and link, an excerpt, and a button to draft a reply in Needle.

Why teams route Needle alerts to Slack

Available on the Solo plan and up.

  • Reply while the thread is fresh

    Recommendation threads move fast. An alert in the channel your team already watches beats a dashboard nobody opened.

  • Discuss before you reply

    Teammates can weigh in under the alert in a Slack thread before anyone responds in the community.

  • One channel per product

    Route each brand to its own channel so product lines and clients stay separate.

Frequently asked questions

Setup, limits, and every platform are covered in the docs.

What does Needle send to Slack?
Two kinds of message: a digest summarizing new leads for each brand with a link to review them, and individual hot-lead alerts for high-intent threads. Digests arrive daily on Solo, as often as every 4 hours on Growth, and hourly on Scale. Hot-lead alerts go out when a run finds a high-intent buyer - up to three per run.
Can each brand post to a different Slack channel?
Yes. Set an account-wide Slack webhook, then override it for any brand that should alert its own channel.
Which plan includes Slack?
Slack alerts are available on the Solo plan and up. The 7-day free trial lets you try them first.
Does Needle reply or post for me?
No. Needle finds and ranks conversations and can draft a reply for you to edit. You decide whether to respond, and you post it yourself.
