This was a challenging (but fun!) project for our team, which was born out of one small idea from a development team hackathon sessions. I\u2019m really proud of what we were able to build, and I\u2019m excited to see what our users do with it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the current pandemic and shift for many to work-from-home wasn\u2019t our original motivation, in early March we made a team decision to prioritize shipping this integration more quickly than we previously planned. We believe the combination of Slack\u2019s platform for communication and Align\u2019s focus on strategic goal execution will help teams better navigate the path ahead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of you are adjusting to your new work-from-home schedules, experimenting with new workflows and getting comfortable with new software tools to keep your team communication smooth. It\u2019s more important than ever to keep your team updated on your activities and to have an easy way to review your team members\u2019 work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Alignbot<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> lets you do things like:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schedule alerts to remind you in Slack to update personal information in your Align account<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create and check off your most important task for the day (called \u201cTop Priority\u201d)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use slash commands to pull up summary reports of your team\u2019s updates from their daily and weekly standup meetings (we call them \u201cHuddles\u201d)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create automated messages that get posted to your team\u2019s public channel whenever someone makes progress on a team goal, so everyone can celebrate together<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you already use Align and want to dive right in yourself, you can connect your account today.

This started organically. Whoever closed a big new sale, completed a development milestone, or hit a record view count on a new piece of marketing content could fire up a song on our speaker system in the office. Some of you have a sales gong; our CEO Doug has \u201cLovely Day\u201d by Bill Withers. We didn\u2019t want our remote employees outside the New Orleans office to be left out, so we started to jumping on a Zoom call to get them to celebrate with us.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload aligncenter wp-image-9352\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27450%27%20height%3D%27300%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20450%20300%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27450%27%20height%3D%27300%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/aligntoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/image3-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The problem was, in our excitement we sometimes forgot to let remote team members know! Earlier in the year we had a tech team hackathon, and decided to make sure we did a better job of including the whole team in these moments. We built a simple Slack Bot that would ping our #general channel whenever there was positive movement against a company priority.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fast forward a little bit. We\u2019ve refined that feature, added some other features, and shipped it as a publicly-available Slack application for any Align user to enjoy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"Font__heading Font__heading--alt2\"><span style=\"color: #f7941d;\">What It Does<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slash Commands to get and update important Huddle information<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slash commands are ways you can communicate with apps using the Slack chat interface. You type like you were writing a normal message to someone, but certain keywords tip the apps off that you\u2019re actually asking them for something.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Align, you can use two slash commands to quickly pull up all your team\u2019s meeting updates, and add information for yourself if you haven\u2019t yet. \/dailyhuddle and \/weeklyhuddle returns an easily-digestible summary of all your Huddles. Certain keywords like the Huddles name and \u201cme\u201d let you further filter down that information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-9244 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27714%27%20height%3D%27662%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20714%20662%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27714%27%20height%3D%27662%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/aligntoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/new_slash-1.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"714\" height=\"662\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re bad (like me, in the example above) and haven\u2019t updated your Huddle yet, you can quickly do that inside Slack by clicking the \u201cUpdate\u201d button in the Huddle summary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload aligncenter wp-image-9243\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27500%27%20height%3D%27440%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20500%20440%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27500%27%20height%3D%27440%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/aligntoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/2020-04-12_0857.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"440\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scheduled Personal Alerts as a reminder to prep for Huddles<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Particularly working from home, our personal rhythms have changed. The office cues are not there to help you trigger reminders for various tasks. But for many of us, Slack is on all day. If you don\u2019t wanna get burned and forget about to update your Huddle like I did in the previous example, you can also schedule reminders inside Slack for important Align activities. For example, I could\u2019ve had a message like this sent to me 60 minutes before the Huddle meeting time if I hadn\u2019t yet filled out my information:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can set up similar alerts for your Top Priority and other custom messages.
