IdeaFlow Memory · for Chief of Staff networks & operators

Your company's living knowledge base,
maintained by an agent.

Automatically turn your Slack, email, and docs into an LLM wiki with granular permissions — queryable from Slack, iMessage, or your own Claude.

See it in action

Slack conversations in. Structured wiki out.

The bot watches quietly and extracts decisions as they happen. Then you can ask it anything, from any surface.

OK after the Acme call today, I think we should bite the bullet and require a credit card on trial signup. The conversion data is obvious, and every good customer said "of course I'd enter one."

Same source of truth, different surfaces — ask in Slack, text your agent, query from Claude.
💡 Why this works now, when it didn't before

Your company's real memory already lives in Slack. The reason no wiki stays current, and no AI search works well, is that nothing safely writes that memory down at the speed it's created. Manual curation never happens. Naive ingestion leaks sensitive threads into shared knowledge, and nobody trusts it.

IdeaFlow Memory fixes this with a small but unusual primitive: the agent classifies visibility per item as it writes. Leadership decisions stay with leadership. Company-wide SOPs are queryable by everyone. Sensitive customer context stays scoped. No cleanup pass. No poisoned vault.

How it works

From Slack to memory, in four steps.

Nothing to install for your team beyond a Slack bot. IdeaFlow maintains the memory for you.

STEP 1

Connect Slack

We ingest history and watch new messages. Your Slack stays the source of truth.

STEP 2

Agent extracts

Decisions, entities, relationships, and recurring process patterns become structured markdown.

STEP 3

Permissions at write time

The agent classifies visibility per item as it ingests. Sensitive threads stay sensitive.

STEP 4

Ask from anywhere

Query the wiki from Slack, iMessage, or your Claude. Same knowledge, three doors.

Three surfaces, one brain

Meet your team where they already work.

Everyone on the team talks to the same wiki, with permissions tailored to them.

💬
Primary

Slack bot

Lives in your workspace. Quiet by default — auto-saves decisions, surfaces context when asked.

  • Mediates discussions with history
  • Brain reaction saves anything
  • Maintains your idea bank for you
📱
Control surface

iMessage / WhatsApp

Text the agent when you're away from your desk. Ask questions, get answers — not a group chat participant.

  • "What did we decide about X?"
  • "Summarize Acme's history"
  • "Who owns this project?"
Power user

Headless Claude

The agent uses your wiki as context inside the AI tools you already use. Deep analysis on demand.

  • Draft SOPs from patterns
  • Cross-reference customers
  • Spot automation candidates
Data sources

Start with Slack. Add more when it helps.

Slack is where modern orgs think out loud. Everything else is optional — but nice to have.

Who this is for

Early design partners.

We're working directly with a small group of teams to shape the product. If you're in either group below, we want to talk.

Primary fit

Series A–B startups, 30–100 people

Big enough to have knowledge sprawl and alignment problems. Small enough to adopt new workflows without six weeks of change management. Usually led by an ops person or CoS who's been quietly wanting this for a year.

Secondary fit

Chief of Staff networks & transformation leads

If you run or participate in a CoS network exploring how much of the role can be augmented, this is the substrate you've been missing. Built for AI-first operating models from day one.

Let's talk.
