Action Item Tracker turns Slack messages and threads into trackable action items. Assign an owner, set a due date, send reminders, and give managers a clean dashboard per channel.
Fast capture, clear ownership, and just enough structure to keep teams moving.
Turn “we should do this” into a trackable action. Keep context by linking back to the original message.
Make accountability explicit. Owners get clear DMs and can mark tasks done in one click.
A clean manager view shows what’s open, overdue, due soon, and completed — scoped by channel.
Automatic nudges at 24h, 1h, and due time. Managers can also nudge with cooldown protection.
Send a weekly overview of open, overdue, and upcoming actions to keep the channel on track.
No “new tool” adoption. Your work stays in Slack — the tracker just makes it visible and manageable.
Install, capture actions, and track outcomes. Works great for standups, project channels, and delivery follow-ups.
Authorize the app for your workspace. Add it to the channels where work happens.
Tip: In private channels, invite the app with /invite @Action Item Tracker.
Create actions via /add_action or from a message action (message → action item).
Owners receive a DM and can mark done with one click.
Users see “My actions”. Managers get a channel-scoped dashboard, reminders, nudges, and weekly digest.
Use manager permissions per channel to keep it focused.
Start free. Upgrade when you need manager tools, reminders, and digests.
Common questions about permissions, data, and how the app works.
Yes. You can create action items from a message or thread context so the task retains the original discussion.
The app stores only what it needs to provide the service (e.g., action item description, owner, due date, and channel/workspace identifiers). For details, see the Privacy Policy.
Typical scopes include posting messages/ephemerals, opening modals, reading basic channel info, and sending DMs. Your exact scopes depend on features enabled (e.g., message actions, reminders, manager dashboard).
Yes. Manager view is channel-scoped. Only assigned channel managers can view/manage that channel’s action items.
When an action has a due date, reminders can be scheduled (e.g., 24h, 1h, and at due time). Owners can mark done from the reminder DM.
