Launching today
Jared is an AI employee that lives in Slack, connects to 10,000+ tools, and gets work done without being asked. Unlike every other AI tool, it reads the room, follows conversations, knows your team and speaks up when it matters. Your social AI employee.

I'm writing this from a hackerhouse in Barcelona ☀️
Last week we launched OpenViktor (an open-source AI employee built in 48h). We were #3 PH of the day, 300+ GitHub stars in 24h. We took it down and rebuilt the entire thing from scratch.
Meet Jared. The first AI employee that's actually social.
He lives in Slack, connects to 10,000+ tools and does the work: reports, dashboards, code, follow-ups, research.
But here's what's different: he reads the room. Jumps into conversations when it matters. Knows who to talk to and when to shut up. Brainstorms with your team. Remembers everything and gets sharper every day.
Paying $2000/month for an AI employee is crazy.
Humalike is backed by the first investor in ElevenLabs. Built by a small team (🇪🇸 X 🇵🇱) that hasn't slept much.
Martí, co-founder.
P.S. We ship fast. Request a feature or report a bug, we'll build or fix it the same day :))
@mcarmonas Finally, a tool that solves real problem. but how does Jared decide when to 'read the room' vs. engage?

@yisak_mebrate love to hear that Yisak :))) We are building humalike.ai, humanlike social agents for group environments with natural timing, interruptions, and voice/text cues. We basically plugged in Humalike to Jared and made it social!
This is interesting—especially the “reads the room” part.
How does Jared decide when to speak up without becoming noise? Is there some kind of confidence threshold or context awareness model behind it?
@mgufrone Hi! There are two main parts to this:
1. very good base -> we spent a lot of time testing and tweaking it to make it work. It's based on personality, context, recent tasks, goals, relationships between users
2. He learns -> when he does a mistake he takes conclusions, and learns to not repeat it again, getting better and more aligned to your team as time passes
Thanks for trying it out!
The "reads the room" part is what I find most interesting. Proactive agents are way harder to get right than reactive ones - getting the timing wrong and it becomes more annoying than helpful. How do you decide when Jared should chime in vs stay silent? Is it rule-based or does the model decide?
@mykola_kondratiuk It's a combination of LLM judgement, context, memory (he learns over time) and our know-how. The main point is he only joins if he can provide value.
I like the idea of an AI that doesn’t just execute tasks but understands context inside conversations.
Does it naturally adapt to how a team works?

@amraniyasser Hey Amrani! It does adapt to how the team works, talks, behaves and we are improving it (atm) to understand lore of teams :))

Hey team! Great work, curious to learn what are the exact use cases Jared can perform? Is it mainly coding? or generic tool execution? or something else?
@khashayar_mansourizadeh1 He's great at making reports and coding obviously. But he's exceptional at longer ongoing tasks that require coordinating stakeholders. For example you can ask him to "make sure we have all marketing materials ready for PH before friday" and he learns what is needed for PH, makes a list, ask questions to clarify. Then he checks on it during the week, pings people responsible to ask how is the progress going and makes sure everything is ready by friday:)
He has his own email, browser, computer and 10k+ tools available so he can be helpful in hundred different ways:))

Looks awesome! I like the idea of the bot being able to collect all the information it needs from the existing conversations, but can we also point it at external sources to use as reference when doing its work?
@abdelh2o Yeah! Exactly. It comes with 10,000+ tools to connect to your sources like Linear, Figma, Github, and many many more. It also has browser and email, so you can just send him a link of the resource, send it on slack, or do a CC for a mail.
Do you have any specific source you'd like to use? I will let you know how good Jared is with it:))

this looks really cool. the part about Jared following conversations and speaking up without being asked is what got my attention. how does it decide when to jump in vs stay quiet? and does it work across private Slack channels too, or only public ones?
@konstantinalikhanov Hi Konstantin! He jumps in only if we can provide value without being annoying. The decision is made based on his personality, context, memory of past interactions and how much he can actually help. He can think in the background and join conversation when he already has something to show.
It works on all channels that you invite him, so private channels work. He also works in DMs.
Hope that helps:))
