Before and after

Standup, #team-checkout

Cmd/Ctrl Shift P

Before

yesterday was kind of a mess tbh, the flaky tests again, spent most of the day on that, also started looking at the coupon bug but didnt get far, today more of the same i guess, oh and im still blocked on the staging db access thing

After

Yesterday: stabilized the flaky checkout tests (most of the day), started on the coupon bug. Today: finish the coupon fix. Blocked: still need staging DB access — who can grant it?

Bug report dropped into #engineering

Cmd/Ctrl Shift P

Before

checkout is broken for some people?? a customer wrote in saying they cant pay, support says it happened twice today, someone should probably look at this soon

After

Bug: checkout failing for some customers at the payment step — two support reports today. No repro yet. Can someone own this? I'll forward both tickets.

Review request, 3pm

Cmd/Ctrl Shift P

Before

After

Need one review on PR #318 (analytics) before EOD — it ships today. Who can take it?

FAQ

Questions before you install

Does Rewrait work in the Slack desktop app?

Yes — Slack desktop on Mac and Windows, and Slack in the browser. Rewrait is a native app that works at the operating-system level, so there is no Slack app to install from the marketplace, no bot in your workspace, and no admin approval needed to start. The whole flow happens in the message box: type the draft the way it comes out, select it, press Cmd+Shift+P (Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows), pick a shortcut, and the improved version replaces your draft — still unsent, still yours to edit. It works the same in channels, threads, and DMs. And because nothing reads your screen in the background, Rewrait never sees your Slack history or anyone else's messages; it only processes the text you select, on demand.

Can it shorten long Slack messages without losing the point?

Yes. The Shorter and More direct variants keep the load-bearing pieces — names, dates, ticket numbers, links, the actual ask — and cut the scaffolding: the apologies for asking, the 'kind of, sort of' hedges, the second restatement of the problem. The examples above show the pattern: a five-line ramble becomes three lines with an owner and a deadline. You always see the rewrite next to your draft before anything replaces it, so when a cut loses context that mattered, pick another variant or keep your version. A useful habit: write the long version freely, because it helps you think, then compress at send time. The Free plan supports selections up to 1,000 characters. For longer messages, select a section at a time or use a paid plan's higher limit.

Can my team share Slack writing shortcuts?

Yes, on the Team plan. A workspace owner publishes shared shortcuts — 'standup format', 'incident update', 'decision summary', 'request with deadline' — and everyone runs them from the same hotkey menu inside Slack. Shared shortcuts give team updates the same fields, order, and level of detail, regardless of who wrote them. Shortcuts can also pull from approved company context in Notion, Confluence, or Google Docs — your incident runbook, your comms guidelines — so the 'incident update' format is the one your team actually documented, and updating the doc updates everyone's rewrites. Team is $20 per seat per month billed annually ($25 monthly), no seat minimum, with owner-managed seats and billing. Every new account starts with a 14-day free Team trial, no card, so you can test it on your team's standups before choosing a plan.

Does Rewrait read my Slack history?

No. Rewrait has no connection to Slack at all — it is not a Slack integration, it does not sit in your workspace, and it cannot see channels, threads, or history. It works like a keyboard-level tool: the only text it ever processes is the text you explicitly select and submit with the hotkey, on demand, to produce a rewrite. Privacy defaults apply on top of that: your text is never used to train models, rewrite history is off unless you personally opt in, and the feedback events that help improve Rewrait never include message content. For companies with stricter requirements, the Team plan adds a written no-training guarantee, and our security page lists exactly which subprocessors handle what.
