Easily add custom call-to-action buttons (CTAs) to any Slack message and send them to multiple channels in one easy step. Featuring custom icons, advanced analytics, and reusable templates, Threadly helps you engage your audience and guide them seamlessly.
Hey everyone! Zev here, I'm the Founder of Threadly, the app for Slack that supercharges your messaging. Threadly has been a back-of-the-mind idea for a number of years now, and I'm excited to finally launch it.
The idea is simple: Slack is made up of channels. Sometimes you want to share the same message in different channels, often including an external link. But let's agree that while copying and pasting might be simple, it's also work (read: annoying!) to find the channel, paste the message, send it, and then repeat the process 18 times.
This is where Threadly steps in, with its fully customizable suite of features:
💥 Channel Groups: Easily group channels together. Create groups for your partners, prospects, or internal social channels. Or, send one-offs if you'd like!
💥 Customizable Profiles: Change the profile icon and name so your message feels personal. Switch it up each time to keep your channels engaged. Be the Product Team, Sarah from Acme, or the Silly App — you name it. Literally.
💥 Markdown Support: Threadly's editor fully supports markdown, allowing you to quickly format your message the way you want them to look.
💥 Message Templates: Find yourself sharing the same note each week? Save it as a template and easily tweak it when you need to send it.
💥 CTAs: Build call-to-actions (CTAs) that link to any external website. Hyperlinks are cool, but don't we all agree a green shiny button catches the eye a bit more?
💥 Advanced Analytics: Easily analyze and get notified about who’s engaging with your CTAs.
Threadly users have shared some really cool use cases: sales reps hopping on hot leads as soon as they click on the "Learn more" CTA, HR teams sharing the latest employee survey, and product marketing teams highlighting new features. With Threadly, it's easy to reach your users where they are, and with Slack's high open rates, your message is sure to be seen!
So, if you're looking to hit Ctrl+Alt+Del on copy and paste, give Threadly a try for free today!

How customizable are the call-to-action buttons in terms of design and functionality?
Can you provide examples of how businesses have successfully used Threadly to engage their audiences?
Congrats on the launch, Zev!
@kyrylosilin Awesome question! You can customize the color (standard, green, red), the text (which includes emoji support), and obviously the link.
There are some really use cases out there, but here are a few that I've got feedback on:
- A SaaS app used Threadly to promote an event in NYC and the CTA linked to the sign up page. The creator was able to 1) see the engagement to the message, and 2) track who was interested but didn't fully sign up. The event was a huge hit, and many users attributed learning of the event from the Slack message.
- A marketing agency shared their newsletter with their clients over Slack. I can't comment on their email open-rates, but they were super impressed with the traction their Slack message got. They were also pleased they didn't need to hack together a copy/paste flow or do it manually!
- A sales rep used Threadly to communicate new features with prospects as a teaser for what they'd get if they signed up. With every CTA this rep shared, they tracked who engaged with the message and clicked the CTA itself.
@chase_mohseni There's so much potential to chat with customers, prospects, and users! But even for community managers.... smooth, seamless, and simple!
