Slashy AI Agent Automates Tasks Across Apps

Founders: Pranjali, Dhruv, and Harsha (YC S25)
Website: Slashy.ai
Demo: YouTube

The Problem

While building a previous startup, the founders realized they were spending excessive time on repetitive tasks—scraping LinkedIn, updating spreadsheets, managing investor reports, and juggling Slack channels. One founder reported 4 hours daily in Gmail alone, prompting them to pivot to solving productivity pain points.

The Solution: Slashy

Slashy is a general AI agent that connects directly to 15+ apps (G-Suite, Slack, Notion, etc.) to:

• Perform actions (send emails, create calendar events, update CRMs)
• Search semantically across platforms
• Automate workflows via natural language (e.g., "Find LinkedIn post reactors and send personalized emails")

Key Differentiators

1. Action-Oriented: Unlike ChatGPT, Slashy executes tasks end-to-end (e.g., drafts emails, schedules follow-ups).
2. Cross-App Context: Integrates data from Slack, Calendar, and CRMs for cohesive workflows.
3. No-Code Setup: Replaces Zapier’s complex flows with natural language commands.
4. Custom Tools: In-house tooling avoids low-quality third-party APIs, using markdown for Slack/Notion compatibility.

Use Cases

• "Compile daily Notion docs with backgrounds on meeting attendees"
• "Create investor decks with market research and financial projections"
• "Run a DCF analysis for Nvidia"

Availability

Free tier: 100 daily credits + 500 bonus credits for HN readers (code: HACKERNEWS).

"We built Slashy to eliminate busywork—so you can focus on what matters," say the founders.
