Past work

One help channel across Discord, GitHub and Slack.

A unified support workflow that brings community questions from Discord, GitHub and Slack into one place, with automation to track and answer them.

Challenge, approach and outcome.

The challenge

Questions asked on Discord and GitHub were going unanswered. The support team had no visibility into them, and were not actively engaging on those platforms.

The approach

Naomi bridged those conversations into the team's internal Slack, which put fresh eyes and new engagement on support queries.

When someone asks a question, the bot opens a thread in Slack. When the user follows up in their Discord or GitHub thread, their messages appear in Slack. Staff can reply from Slack, and the reply is posted to the user's original thread.

The outcome

Response times and the number of tickets that received a human response both improved significantly. There are no figures to publish.

What was done.

Taken word for word from Naomi's published work history.
