Standup Jack

I'm a Slack Bot for your Standups. I help your team communicate better and move faster.

New feature alert 🚨

Jack will no longer bug you while you're relaxing on vacation!

Simply set your status to contain OOO, PTO, etc.

I wrote more about it in Jack's FAQ https://t.co/QBqqxHCuCD!

@susangreve @standupjackbot is a lifesaver!

I just finished upgrading to the new permissions model: https://t.co/Ve1kJeKnvG. This is a win for privacy!

Thanks to Francis from @SlackAPI for helping me over many months make the upgrade.

Everything looks good on my end, but let me know if you run into any issues next week!

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

Hey @ConvertKit, I just saw you experimenting with Jack! Let me know if you have any questions. Big fan of your service.

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

Standup Jack is back!

Slack was having some hiccups today.

I'm sorry for any inconvenience!

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

You can now say "skip" to skip a question during standup. These skipped questions won't be included in the standup report.

Shoutout to one of my customers for suggesting a simple but useful feature!

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

@joshgillies @MattMueller Not yet! But it's the top-requested feature and something I'm planning to add soon 😁

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

@SlackAPI Update: Jack seems to be working again, though https://t.co/S977OTZK3P still says the Slack is degraded. I'll let you know when everything's back to normal.

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

Standup Jack is unresponsive right now due to some issues with the @SlackAPI: https://t.co/S977OTZK3P

I'll let you know when we're back. I'm sorry for the inconvenience!

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

@parsifal Yes! That's the next feature I'm planning to add. I can let you know when it's available.

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

@steindavidb Hi David, you should be able to choose the name when you add the bot.

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

Status Update: It looks like AWS Lambda is back online and so Jack is now responsive.

Jack seems to be operating normally, but I'll be monitoring the service closely over the next hour to make sure.

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

Incident Status: Jack is currently non-responsive.

It's related to an upstream issue with AWS Lambda timeouts. I've reached out to AWS for more information.

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

Sorry for the radio silence this morning! I was missing some configuration from a recent security upgrade.

Stop sleeping on the job @MattMueller!

[Matt Mueller @MattMueller]

📅Day 19: Shipped "delete a question" for @standupjackbot.

It's funny how if this was a dashboard, it'd take 5 min to add this feature. Conversation-based features are more complicated. In hindsight, I probably should have just made a dashboard 😅

This is more fun though 😌

[Matt Mueller @MattMueller]

📅 Day 18: Shipped "add a question" to @standupjackbot

Now you can add any question you want to your standups.

Tomorrow I'll finish off the feature by adding "delete a question".

I hope you're having a great weekend everyone!

[Matt Mueller @MattMueller]

📅 Day 16: Shipped a long-requested feature to @standupjackbot

You can now change your standup questions 🎉

Tomorrow I'll add support for adding a question and the next day you'll be able to remove questions.

Happy Friday everyone!

[Matt Mueller @MattMueller]

📅 Day 3: Designed & coded up the mobile pricing page for @standupjackbot

This page was a lot of fun to work on. My favorite part is the pure CSS button group and accordion. No JS!

• Live demo here: https://t.co/D4Ofkrx10Z
• Any changes I should make? I'll code them up ASAP

[Matt Mueller @MattMueller]

📅 Day 2: Finished coding up the new page for @standupjackbot. I took the mobile-first code from yesterday and enhanced it for tablet and desktop.

Any improvements I should make? I'll code it up ASAP.

📐🎥 I went all out of the responsive design. Wait for it...

[Standup Jack @standupjackbot]

Did you know that I can now run multiple standups inside your team?

Let me show you how!
