Scarlett
An AI coworker that lives in Slack and iMessage and actually does the work
Overview
Scarlett is pitched as a real colleague rather than a chatbot, an AI agent that lives inside Slack or iMessage and does end-to-end work like sending emails, updating your CRM, and building reports, instead of just replying with text you still have to act on yourself. It routes tasks across multiple underlying models depending on what's needed and connects to thousands of tools to reach into the rest of your stack.
It only launched on Product Hunt on July 10, 2026, ranking #4 that day, so there is essentially no independent track record yet. Early reviewer comments mention liking the multi-model setup and not having to manage separate infrastructure, but also flag that autonomous execution needs strict guardrails and transparent logs before you'd trust it with real business actions, and that iMessage support has weaker permission controls than Slack's channel-based system. Treat this as an interesting but genuinely unproven agent, not a settled choice, until it's been in the wild longer.
Key Features
Slack & iMessage Native: Works directly inside the tools teams and solopreneurs already use, no separate app to check.
Multi-Model Routing: Sends different task types to different specialized models rather than one general-purpose model for everything.
Autopilot Mode: Can run more autonomously after being trained on 50+ business and growth books.
3,000+ Tool Connections: Automates workflows across a wide range of existing business tools.
Persistent Memory: Uses a hybrid SQL and semantic search setup to retain long-term context across conversations.

Pros
Does Real Work, Not Just Chat: Takes actions like sending emails and updating CRMs rather than only answering questions.
Lives Where Teams Already Work: No separate app, runs inside Slack and iMessage.
Multi-Model Architecture Praised: Early reviewers liked not having to juggle separate model subscriptions or infrastructure.
Wide Tool Reach: Connects to 3,000+ tools for automating cross-app workflows.
Cons
Brand New, No Track Record: Launched July 10, 2026. There's no meaningful history of how it performs at scale or over time.
No Public Pricing: Pricing isn't published anywhere findable as of this writing, so you can't compare cost before signing up.
Autonomy Needs Guardrails: Reviewers noted that letting it act autonomously requires strict oversight and transparent execution logs, which aren't fully built out yet.
Weaker iMessage Permissions: iMessage lacks Slack's channel-based permission controls, a real gap for teams wanting fine-grained access control.
What Makes It Unique
Acts, Doesn't Just Chat: Positioned as an agent that completes real tasks end to end inside Slack or iMessage, rather than a chatbot you copy answers out of.
