Congrats to @mikedorsey @bastiaanjanmaat and co on the launch! Makes sense for these kinds of company alerts like new funding rounds, news mentions (your own / competitor's) etc. to show up in Slack. And since DataFox os a paid product... very cool that the Slack integration is free! Looking forward to trying it 😎
Bastiaan/Mike what type of alerts have you seen the Slack integration particularly useful for?

Thanks @nivo0o0 - we're excited to offer a free version of DataFox Alerts so that everyone can enjoy the power of the insights we find and categorize for you.
The biggest use cases for our alerts are to track competitors, potential customers, and industry news.
The most popular alert types - in addition to the more typical milestones that we offer like Fundings & Acquisitions - are the 40+ unique alert types that we identify, e.g.: New Product Launches, New Executive Hires, New Office Openings, New Patents, and more.
We have built some pretty awesome NLP and machine learning to find these signals from government filings, job listings, and press releases - and we have an audit infrastructure in place to ensure that they're accurate & relevant.
Excited to hear what you all think about it!!

Thanks for hunting, @nivo0o0! A few common uses include sales reps, who track office openings and executive hires; product strategists, who monitor competitors' launches and strategy announcements; and marketers, who stay on top of industry leaders' press mentions and conferences. There are a number of different uses, though - we have over 40 types of alerts, and there's something for every professional :)
@anishasekar interesting 🤓
@mikedorsey @nivo0o0 Congrats on this, excited to try it out! :)

@serikiman Thanks Serik - let us know how it goes for ya. To be totally honest, I helped, but @bentrombley, @_samparas, and @e_tatarchenko actually wrote all the code :) They're the heros...

Thrilled that DataFox is on Producthunt! Getting verified and actionable company information and insights is incredibly challenging. Free DataFox for Slack allows you to select the companies most important you and then specify what kind of news they want. -- Goodbye noisy google alerts!
