If you're like most eng teams, you're probably juggling 5-10+ tabs just to get through your day. GitHub for code reviews, Jira or Linear for tickets, PostHog for analytics, Slack for... well, everything else.
The problem? Dashboards are static. Your work isn't.
You don't need another place to check information you need context delivered exactly where and when you need it. When you're in the middle of a conversation about a production issue, you shouldn't have to leave Slack to hunt down error logs. When planning sprint priorities, you shouldn't need to toggle between three tools to see what's blocking your team.
Our eng team was drowning in this chaos. We'd spend more time finding answers than actually building. "What needs attention right now?" became a 20-minute investigation across PRs, tickets, Sentry alerts, analytics dashboards, and meeting notes.
@palirenjen it actually 100% does - that's the Pulse product :) part of this - would love to help you set up a trial! aiswarya@entelligence.ai

Congrats on the launch! 🚀 Turning Slack discussions into actual tickets automatically is fantastic, but how customizable the ticket creation is?
Ask Ellie
@iftekharahmad as customizable as your prompt! Sometimes its checklists for tests or audits. Sometimes it's research tickets with a time-boxed effort. Ellie will figure it out with the right direction.

This will help avoid navigating the complex JIRA UX. Can we invite Ask Ellie to a group chat too?
Ask Ellie
@gokuljd We use it daily in group chats and dms to assign new work to peoples area of proficiency or discuss ideas and summarize outcomes into a ticket. Nothing is lost anymore.
It's a lot more fun than the UX's available to us today - cleaner tickets with more context come as the outcome too.
Multiple mechanisms exist in slack and on our platform to then keep on top of the created work. Hope you get to try it!

@abod_rehman yes! that's actually one of the things our team uses the most. Just ask at the end of a thread to create tickets for the thread and it will

Hey everyone! 👋
We built Ask Ellie because honestly, engineering teams are drowning in context switching. you're jumping between slack, jira, github, datadog... just to answer one question about why a deploy failed.
Ask Ellie is basically that senior engineer who actually knows where everything is. instead of spending 30 mins hunting down logs and piecing together what happened, you just ask - Ellie.
Would love to hear what you think about the product!
And if you're dealing with alert fatigue or spend way too much time investigating incidents, definitely give it a try.
Ask Ellie
Our engineers were spending more time switching between tools than actually building stuff. Got fed up and just built Ask Ellie for ourselves.
Turns out everyone else was dealing with the same thing. Showed it to a bunch of teams and they all basically said "yeah we need this."
So here it is. Built it because we needed it, now it's available for everyone else.
Would love to hear what you think!

🌻 Hey hey! Adding more context as a lot of tools already exist for engineering visibility.
The gap is still the same: teams aren’t missing data, they’re spending time interpreting it. Figuring out what actually changed usually means opening GitHub, a ticketing tool like Linear or Jira, incident tooling, and stitching that context together manually.
What changes: In practice, a lot less time goes into reconstructing what happened before conversations can move forward. Ellie keeps recent changes connected to ongoing activities, so the same context doesn’t have to be rebuilt each time. Teams aren't jumping between tools or saying “let me check real quick” during standups or async threads.
It’s been interesting seeing how different teams use this day to day.
