From question to introduction

You bring the question.
Your community brings the experience.

Someone may have solved this before. WhoCan gives you a way to find them, even when you don't know their name or which channel they're in.

01 / PREPARE

Put the request into words

Start in Slack or on the web. Ask AI to clarify your request and suggest existing workspace skills, or write the plan yourself.

Need help wording it?
02 / REVIEW

Review before anyone is asked

Edit the wording and skills, then approve up to five requests in your workspace. WhoCan matches members using listed skills and shows why each person was contacted.

03 / CONNECT

Meet someone willing to help

When a member accepts, WhoCan stops further outreach and introduces you in Slack. You can track progress, stop the search, or approve another small group.

Installation & setup
What is WhoCan?

WhoCan is an AI agent for finding help in Slack teams and professional communities. It prepares a request and suggests skills when you choose AI. You review the plan and approve up to five requests for help. WhoCan introduces you when someone accepts.

Does WhoCan answer questions itself?

AI helps clarify your request and suggest existing workspace skills. Matching uses the skills members have on file, and a person who accepts provides the help. You approve outreach and can stop further requests at any time.

Where do the skills come from?

Members can add skills themselves. WhoCan also records skills and endorsements from help requests and interactions in Slack. These records help it choose whom to ask; they aren't professional certifications.

Who can see my profile?

Your web profile is visible to people signed in from the same Slack workspace. If you create a share link, anyone with that link can see a small public card with your name, level, and top skill names. The card leaves out your email, bio, and activity.

How do I add WhoCan to Slack?

Choose Add to Slack, select your workspace, and review the permissions. Your workspace may require an admin's approval. Once installed, check WhoCan's welcome message in Slack and add the skills you can help with.
