I'm so happy to unveil Ask to the world and hear feedback, finally! If you're curious on the genesis and reasoning behind Ask, read on, else thanks for your support and make sure to join the waitlist! Large Language Models are not recent, we had been exploring them for a while, but they were brought to a whole new level with OpenAI and @samaltman6 work on chatGPT a couple months ago. The obvious application in document tools was be to bring it *inside* the editor, to generate content. That's what various tools, such as Notion and Craft did. We developed this internally as well, and might still release it in some way, but something felt off, or not good enough compared to the magic of chatGPT. Since the beginning, Slite has been a tool for teams. Not a no code tool, not a 2nd brain for individuals. We optimise it to centralise all your team information, wikis, projects, notes, key decisions, and not for the sake of it. The goal is of course to deliver this information back. And looking at chatGPT, we knew the future of our tool needed to go in a similar direction. It was not easy, the team worked extremely hard on this, put a lot of intelligence in the solution, and managed to pull through a great first testable version! Join the waitlist, we'll be gradually rolling it out, starting with Slite users and teams that see a very strong interest in their business, let us know when you join the waitlist! We're far from done, we have a ton to learn and to refine on. The first next brick, for instance, will be to help users deprecate content, and do so automatically. That's the limit of GPT for your docs: there is no page rank like on the web, saying what's true or not, what's still relevant. We need to make it easy for Slite users, so that Ask can answer based on sources they trust. Thanks all for the support, thanks so much @tiboel for hunting us, share and send your feedback! The team will be there to answer all day long.

Hey there, I'm beyond thrilled to share Ask Slite with the world today! For the last few months, we've seen players trying to bring the power of advanced language models like GPT to our documents. But all we've seen so far has been about generating content. Writing more has never really been the issue. On the contrary. The future is not in creating more noise in teams, but unlocking the vast amount of info your team put years to bring together. And with Ask, the Slite team finally cracked it! I've been using it for the past week and I can honestly say that this will change the way we work and collaborate as a team. The Slite team has worked incredibly hard over the past years to build a flawless product for all team documentation. With Ask, it now combined it with the power of large language models, and it's brilliant. It's like having a team assistant you can query on anything your team has ever thought, or done.

Congrats team! really love it. Super smart application of AI for productivity tools and it really makes me want to switch to Slite :)

Finally, an AI implementation that isn't a total fad. This adds real, tangible value to your documentation space. It closes the loop on the problem with documentation. When documents are hard to find, people don't want to write them because they see it as a waste of time as their documents will never be found! When you make information easy to find, people are incentivised to write more, thus encouraging a culture of writing. Easier to find docs -> more documentation written. Simple. Super excited to start using this. Once again, you nailed it again Slite 🏆

The product is a game changer and will be very helpful in setting up a knowledge base quickly. ✨ How long has the team been working on it? Best of luck to the entire team on the launch. It will be a #1 product for the day. ⚡️⚡️

bold move, really like the idea, we did it ourselves internally and it has been a game changer for internal process and support teams around the world. Quite interested in any future development! Where do you see this product going in the next few years?

Can't even begin to say how impressed I've consistently been by the team at Slite. They are the Apple of the team documentation and collaboration space. They actually take a moment, see what the new tech and features are all about, and then implement it in the most thoughtful and impressive way (first Discussions, and now Ask). Everyone in SaaS knew they should implement GPT, and that they did – the same uninspiring me too way. Autogenerated content, manually highlight chunks of content to summarize, blah blah blah. Then Slite asked "why?" and Ask by Slite was born. What does Slite know that others seem to miss? Whelp, we have SO MUCH DAMN CONTENT. Internal company docs, customer docs, coding reference docs, content idea docs. We then share some of these docs with customers, and others with the public, so now our now content is theirs. (Yeah... you can even make a white labeled website around your Slite docs) – moral of the story is: everyone already has the content, too much content! Any company using a documentation and collaborative note taking tool really just needs one key feature. A way to find what you're actually looking for. It's obvious, no? But search was obvious, until we realized with Ask that it wasn't good enough. That you should be able to get a result that combines information from numerous documents, all that disconnected information now connected to give a simple answer to the question you asked. We have the information, now Slite has the Ask. I'll say it again, it's obvious – well, Slite made it obvious 👏 Thank you @christophepas & team for continuing to do what Slite does best – taking the time to ask "why?" before building.

This is ... exactly how a business knowledge base should work. Brilliant. Congrats @christophepas and team

Congrats on the launch team, this is an absolute game-changer! That kind of feature where we say “that is so obvious” now we have it in front of us. Big kudos to the team, I can totally see this becoming a new standard! 👏👏👏

I love the Slite approach in many things they do! And here I definitely love the "get the answer from the company knowledge base" more than many ai stuff we see in the market. congrats to @christophepas and team :)

Wow 🤯, I'm so excited to see Slite's new Ask feature! 🤩 It sounds like an incredible way to make sure teams have access to the most accurate, up-to-date information. Can't wait to check it out! 🤗

Congratulations on your launch @christophepas! This sounds interesting! How does Ask ingest the documentation created by my team exactly so that it can give me pin-pointed answers?

This makes so much sense, having the wow effect and pertinence of ChatGPT within your own knowledge base! That's super exciting can't wait to try this out ;)

As a hefty user and promoter of internal knowledge, I can't tell enough how this feature is more than a game changer. We currently have thousands of different notes (that are not always well organized). Ask is the answer to one of the biggest problem that comes directly with a big knowledge database: "Where the f* is this information". We aim, at least, for a 20 to 30% increase in productivity with Ask!

🤯 Game changer. Congrats team!

I can't say how much this is (incredibly) useful. Not using the search engine anymore, I just ... Ask

This is the kind of feature that makes me wants to switch from Notion to Slite!! 😱

Great job guys, this seems like a cool thing. Saying that as the co-founder of WritingMate.ai - the competing Product of the Day app :)

This is so cool! I've found that it's really easy to get lost in a sea of documentation, decisions, metrics, especially as companies grow. Or even to find "that thing we wrote a couple of months ago". Excited to take this for a spin sometime! Bravo!

I've been using Slite for years to document decisions and learnings. Ask is a major step forward in how we work and collaborate, beautifully integrated into the product we already love. @christophepas and team, you nailed it once again. Bravo, keep it up 👏👏
