Features

OpenTag joins new public channels on its own

When someone creates a public channel, OpenTag joins quietly so it is ready when mentioned. Invite it by hand and it still says hello.

Improvements

Bigger files, both directions

Files up to 20 MB now move between OpenTag, Slack, and Google, and email attachments come back as real attachments you can open.

Features

A simpler start in Slack

New workspaces now start with a short Slack-first setup for channels and tools, then land directly in a conversation with OpenTag. There is less to configure before your team can ask for useful work.

Features

Plans now start with free credits

Every new workspace gets a free starting balance, and paid plans are organized around clear monthly credits. You can review usage and choose a plan as your team’s needs grow.

Features

Meet OpenTag

Gini is now OpenTag across the product, giving your team one consistent name in Slack and the app. OpenTag is easier to find, invite, and share with the people you work with.

Improvements

A clearer Integrations page

Integrations are now cards that show which account is connected, one plain status line, and who can use the connection. Statuses say honestly what needs attention, and any teammate can reconnect a team connection, not only the person who set it up.

Integrations

Apollo

Connect Apollo to find and enrich contacts and companies while OpenTag helps with research and follow-up.

Fixes

OpenTag can read back what it posted

Ask about the action-item list OpenTag posted this morning and it finds and reads its own messages in the channel, instead of asking where they are.

Integrations

Stripe

Connect Stripe to look up billing and customer context from the same Slack conversation.

Integrations

Supabase

Connect Supabase to bring the data behind your work into OpenTag when you need an answer.

Integrations

Conductor

Connect Conductor to hand coding work to cloud agents from Slack. OpenTag can list your repositories, start a session on its own branch, check progress, and message a running session.

Integrations

OneDrive

Connect OneDrive so OpenTag can find and use the files your team keeps there.

Features

OpenTag can work across Slack Connect

OpenTag can now take part in Slack Connect conversations, so shared channels can keep OpenTag close to the work.

Improvements

A clearer Slack workspace

Slack controls now have a dedicated home, and reports with tables arrive in a readable layout instead of a wall of pipes. It is easier to decide where OpenTag speaks and scan the answers it sends.

Features

Routines ask before reaching people

When a scheduled routine wants to send an email, post a document, create a calendar invite, or make a call, it now holds the action and asks its owner in a DM first.

Improvements

A proper hello when OpenTag joins a channel

Add OpenTag to a channel and it introduces itself with a short summary of what it has caught up on. In a channel with nothing in it yet, it stays quiet.

Features

Decide how much OpenTag speaks up

Set each channel to eager, judged, or mention-only. In judged channels OpenTag weighs whether an unmentioned reply in a thread it started needs an answer, and it can react with an emoji instead of a message.

Features

Ask about a private channel from your DM

In a direct message you can ask about a private channel you belong to. OpenTag confirms your membership with Slack first, then answers, including files and app messages posted there.

Improvements

Mail and calendar answers span every connected account

Ask about email or your calendar without naming an account and OpenTag checks every Google account you have connected, scoped to you.

Integrations

PostHog

Connect PostHog to bring product usage and analytics context into OpenTag conversations.
