Capture thoughts inside Slack

Message Humble directly in Slack to save a thought, without leaving the conversation

The problem

Good ideas surface mid-conversation — and Slack buries them fast. Saving a message to yourself works until you have 40 of them and no idea which ones still matter.

What changes

A thought sent to Humble in Slack lands in your panel like any other note — organised with your work, not buried in a channel.

How Humble helps

1
Message Humble in Slack
Send a direct message to Humble the way you’d message a colleague. That’s the whole workflow.
2
It lands in your panel
The thought appears in Humble alongside your tasks and notes, ready to organise when you’re back at your desk.
3
Act on it later
Turn it into a task, attach it to a project or just let it sit until you need it.

Set it up

  1. Connect Slack from Settings, then Connections, in Humble.
  2. Find Humble in your Slack direct messages.
  3. Send it the thought you want to save.
  4. Open Humble — the thought is in your panel.
