I love this product immediately upon introduction.. & I can see this being very beneficial to Slack teams in a multitude of ways.. One unique question I have is.. could you integrate other Slackbots into the scheduled posts? For example a good Sir at SSG Slack uses a polling Slack bot known as Pollotron.. Could Pollotron be scheduled to ask for votes on the poll at specific times?.. Via entering a scheduled command? I think this combination will be an excellent partnership to provide a great service. Thanks for your work! Jaswinder Brar

@jay_bee12345 Thanks for the mention! So yeah, our Slack bots are driven by the slash command integration, and if the scheduler can schedule the invocation of slash commands like /poll ask, or something similar, and if Slack treats those as regular Slash commands, we can definitely make these bots work together, and the integration possibilities are really endless! I'd love to see what we can do together. @jeremybenmoussa If this type of integration is possible, you really get some powerful possibilities with custom integrations since you essentially have "cron for Slack", though I know it might be outside of your target use case. :)

@jay_bee12345 @jimmylipham that seems to be a great idea. Maybe that's something we should be working on to improve the product in the coming weeks

TLTR : Schedul.io is a simple SAAS platform that allow you to schedule messages for Slack. 3 main reasons why we created it: - I read a lot of things on the web and I'm very tempted to share them with my team. Sharing all at the same time is annoying for everyone and people doesn't look at all the items I share, they look at the last one. Scheduling my messages increase their reach naturally - I’m working with several companies, all using Slack. If I want to share the same informations, I need to go to each Slack team. With Schedul.io, I can send directly on multiple teams - simply to choose when I want to announce something Feel free to try it on Schedul.io. We have a free plan. Any feedback (and share) would be very appreciated :)

@bentossell You're right. It's mainly for big communities or for announcements. But I don't believe Slack will add it. The focus of Slack is to create addiction to his product by being a "real-time only" tool.

@carmenluiza Hello. I never tried it but I believe we go beyond the simple feature of scheduling messages. In a few days we'll add the AUTOSCHEDULE feature. Basically, it's an algorithm who will choose the best time to share content. The target is to share it when the most people are connected to allow your message to have a better reach. We also allow people to share on multiple teams and channels. When you are, like me, on several communities and have information to share, that's very useful.

This is a feature, not a product. I think you're going to have a hard time convincing people to pay for this. Nevertheless, it's a good idea and something I can see other products implementing in the future (@Buffer or even @slack)

@ebsalberto I believe Slack should. Maybe Buffer will. But why do you consider Buffer as a product and not Schedul.io? Basically, Buffer is a social sharing tool, we're a Slack sharing tool (for now).

@jeremybenmoussa You said it, buffer is for social sharing, so direct impact for teams, and it does more than that (social sharing alone is a feature). Scheduling Slack messages is something someone in a team would be willing to do, so when it's inside the product it's 'nice, it does that too'. I'm not saying schedul can't evolve to a product, I'm just saying it isn't one at the moment.

Great idea. Will definitely be useful for people like myself in timezones outside of the US. I often feel like my questions go unnoticed in bigger communities because of the times I'm posting.
