Team chat
Team chat where the AI does the work in the thread.
SPACES covers what a team needs from chat — channels, DMs, threads, reactions, pins, search and files — and adds the rest of the company to the conversation: GOAT answers with sources, GOATs take on tasks, and docs, calendar and drive sit alongside.
01Where Goatfied is different
What you get beyond Slack.
Slack: Slack is a team messaging app with channels, direct messages and a large directory of integrations.
@goat and your GOATs in every channel
Mention GOAT for a cited answer from your company's knowledge, or a GOAT to start a task — the work happens in the thread.
Docs, calendar and drive included
Collaborative documents, meetings and shared files live in the same workspace as the conversation.
Retention and legal hold
Workspace retention rules, legal hold and eDiscovery export for admins.
One platform instead of one more tool
The same workspace also runs your team chat, design studio, dashboards, business suites and GOATs — AI agents that work for your business. One sign-in, one permission model, one bill.
02Fair is fair
When Slack is the better choice.
- Slack's integration directory is very large; if you depend on many niche apps, check they are covered by MCP or the Slack connector first.
- Slack Connect makes chatting with other companies easy; SPACES is built for your own workspace.
03Switching
Moving over.
- 1.Import a Slack workspace export into SPACES.
- 2.Keep Slack running alongside: GOATs and cloud automations can be reached from Slack too.
