Convert important Slack discussion threads into structured Notion entries and send weekly digests to stakeholders who missed the conversations.

Workflow Steps

1

Slack

Monitor threads with keyword triggers

Use Slack's workflow builder or Zapier to watch for specific keywords, emoji reactions, or when threads exceed a certain number of replies in designated channels.

2

OpenAI

Summarize thread content

Send the captured Slack thread to OpenAI's API via Zapier or Make.com. Use a prompt that extracts key decisions, action items, and participants from the discussion thread.

3

Notion

Create structured discussion record

Add the summarized content to a Notion database with fields for date, participants, topic, key decisions, and action items. Tag relevant team members and set up filtered views.

4

Gmail

Send weekly digest email

Use Zapier's Schedule trigger to compile new Notion entries weekly. Format them into a digest email template and send to stakeholders, managers, or team members who need to stay informed.
