Looks awesome, just one tip: Would be cool if the example code works, would be very nice for people to test with.

+1, I also tried loading that page, I want to see what the information it returns is without needing to hook up into a Slack instance or give access to my leads!


Is this really a common use case? I don't often have sales people (or others) come to me and say "hey, I wish I had lead enrichment built into Slack." Do others have this as a common use case?


Step #2 in the "how it works" on your main website landing page misspells "assistant" as "assitant".


The generic privacy policy along with the free price concerns me. What is their plan for monetisation?


How does it compare to Clearbit's? http://blog.clearbit.com/slack-notifier/

Seems to have a little less information from the gif.


(SalesOps perspective)

Any decent size, scaled sales operation would want the enrichment data in their CRM, actually "burned into" the lead record, and then just displayed in Slack with a link back to their CRM.

We use a combo of Clearbit and Zapier to get this done. It's a zero code solution also. Clearbit is very inexpensive, but definitely not free.

I get the sense this is good for the no-CRM or pre-SFDC sales operation.


This is cool. Must be motivating to see it throughout the day. Companies normally charge for that kind of prospect details. What's the data source?


Looks like a Slack version of LeadBoxer (https://leadboxer.com).


How much does this cost?


It says that it's free.


Cool, they maybe just added that. I command-f'ed for "free" and "pricing" (maybe I typod?).
