I built a Slack-native approval tool — looking for feedback
Hey IH,
I built TeamAutomation (https://teamautomation.app) — a simple approval workflow that lives entirely inside Slack.
What it does:
• Type /approve "Buy new laptops" @manager
• Manager clicks Approve/Reject right in Slack
• Auto-reminders if they don't respond
• Full audit trail + CSV export
Tech stack: Next.js, Supabase, Slack API, Inngest
I'm looking for 3 teams to try it free in exchange for honest feedback.
If your team uses Slack and deals with expense/leave/vendor approvals, I'd love to hear from you.
What did I get wrong? What would you actually pay for?

The auto-remind if they don't respond is the part that actually matters. Approvals die the same way assigned work dies: someone asked, then they became the reminder.
I ran into that as a first-line manager. Built Tskflow for the chase after the ask (mine, disclosed). tskflow.com
Curious what happens in your tool when the manager clicks Approve and the work still doesn't move.
