Overview
Operators inside the IQV portfolio spend their days in Slack. We needed a way to scale decision-making and execution without ballooning headcount or slowing the cadence of work.
Slackmates brings AI executives directly into Slack channels. Each has a clear remit — finance, operations, growth — and is connected to our commerce platform, StashDash, Taskaroo, and BI layer. The result is faster answers, better forecasts, and every decision documented where work already happens.
Founders and leads now get strategic guidance, daily operational summaries, and actionable next steps without pulling people into meetings or digging through dashboards.
