Lowdown 2.0 - Help busy people keep up with your Slack

Slack members don't have time to read every channel—great posts get missed. Highlight them in autogenerated email digests with Lowdown.

Lowdown is really interesting! I hate being distracted by slack, with lowdown I feel I can ignore the noise and know that I'll get a nice email digest of the important stuff. Great product!

@peteyhawkins Good to hear Pete 😃 Much more to come to help solve the distracting aspects of Slack 💪

Lowdown has been active on a Slack channel I've been on for a few months now. I think one of the great things about this is that the content of the newsletters are tailored to be relevant to you from that channel. I don't normally read many newsletters, but this isn't the case with Lowdown. The digests get to the point quick and they magically know exactly what you want to read. Loving the product so far and looking forward watching it evolve in the future!

@theshawe Yep! That's just $19.50 per month to send to up to 2,000 Slack members 😁

Such a great tool for keeping everyone in the loop without the pressure of being online everyday. 50% for 6 months is a steal too!

@alex_price2 Thanks Alex, that's our ultimate goal - to reduce the attention sucking reality of workplace chat.

Looks great! I've been building up a Slack community (slowly) and excited to try this once I get a bit more traction. Love the video too :-)
Steven Hylands
@kylegawley Good luck building your community Kyle! We've found Lowdown can really help increase engagement as it helps bring people back who don't have time to check Slack every day. One of users saw their weekly active users increase from 200 to 340 after a month of weekly emails from Lowdown.

No one has time to read every thread and eventually you stop reading slack because you can’t keep up. This isn’t good for any organisation who uses slack! This is a brilliant idea to keep up to speed with the important stuff so you don’t lose track of what matters. It’s a no brainer!
Steven Hylands
@belfastcookbook Nor should anyone feel the need to read every thread but it can feel like you should especially as an employee of a company. We hope Lowdown can help.

Loving how integrated Slack + Lowdown is for adding new keywords, channels, etc. How easy is it to update these preferences?
Steven Hylands
@_thunk_ Thanks Andy, you can change them at anytime from our web app. In the future we'll make it possible by chatting to our bot in Slack :)

Great way to make sure you don't miss important messages in slack - it can be a noisy place and this helps our team.
