The Whatis bot makes your business' terminology, acronyms and project information searchable, accountable and maintainable straight from Slack - no more sharing around that spreadsheet with 13 different definitions for "CAPEX"!

Whatis is the easiest way to manage your team's internal terminology, jargon, project names, and acronyms. Increase your team’s efficiency, decentralize knowledge management, and make onboarding easier for new employees - without leaving Slack!

Hi Product Hunt! We’re super excited to share Whatis with you all today. Whatis is the easiest way for teams using Slack to organize, manage, and curate their internal terminology, jargon, project info, and acronyms. Throw away that terrible spreadsheet, out-of-date wiki or endless email thread and install Whatis at https://whatis.rocks. We all know the familiar feeling of thinking that you’re the only person not knowing what a certain term or acronym means, but being too shy to ask a senior manager or interrupt the flow of a meeting (Whatis doesn’t judge your searches… yet 🤖 ). Or feeling like an information kiosk - constantly bombarded with repetitive questions from colleagues. Whatis is your team’s personal Google Search. We’re also thrilled to announce some new features today that we have been working hard on over the past few months: 🧙‍♀️ Gamify Knowledge Management by earning points for creating Whatises, or when your teammates 'like' one of your entries. Encourage, track, and reward collaborative participation across your team. 🤓 Understand your team's usage, view your leaderboard, and identify gaps in your team's documented knowledge with the Whatis admin dashboard. 🔍 Our search has improved - Whatis uses natural language processing to let you search your team's terms and phrases, even if you aren’t sure how something is spelled or only know contextual details. Whatis will even find terms that are pronounced similarly to what you're searching for e.g. searching for "Ayefty" will still return "AFT"! Whatis is brought to you with ❤️ to share our collective knowledge 🧠 by Mitchell, Hugo, and Aaron. Have any questions, comments, or feedback on Whatis?

@mitchell_friedman congrats on the launch. Have you explored community aspect of the same model? Any plans for Discord integration?

@eugenehp Hey Eugene, thanks! We love the community aspect of slack - Whatis does not need to be only for companies, really any community can benefit from Whatis. We are offering Whatis premium for free for community teams, so if anyone has a community they think could benefit, please get in touch with us, we'd love to hear about your community. We are definitely exploring other platforms, and discord is one of them. No promises on an ETA, but it's on the roadmap!

awesome work! love the. product

@periclestheo Hey Pericles, thanks for the support! Great to see you here!

I would definitely love to test it. I'm just starting in my professional life and I often find myself so clueless when hearing acronyms or some technical vocabulary used by my colleagues, so it would surely be useful to me. I saw in the comments that you are willing to explore other platforms such as Discord, let me tell you you have one more supporter!

@jimi_desmet Hi Jimi, thanks for chiming in with your support for the idea - and great to know about the huge interest from the Discord community. Do you use Discord at your workplace, or is it more community chat?

@mitchell_friedman of course, a project like this one deserves support ;) And so far, I'm only using Discord at my workplace

@jimi_desmet Good to know, I didn't realize so many teams were using discord for work :) Sounds like a big opportunity for us soon :)
