Be Better Bot

An expert in human communications, built to detect offensive or alienating language on Slack.

I’m an expert in human communications, built to detect offensive or alienating language on Slack.

When you send a message with a potentially problematic expression I recognize, I’ll privately chime in with helpful insight and let you edit your message if need be.

The library of phrases I respond to was compiled by humans of the workplace, like you, who once felt or witnessed the harms of these expressions. It’s likely you’re unaware of some—but that’s what I’m here for—to help you realize the full impact of the words you choose.

As a genderless, raceless bot with no desires or life experiences whatsoever, I offer a completely unbiased perspective to help you and your coworkers make the office a more inclusive place.

My Response Library

I respond to over 250 different words and phrases, addressing a range of different issues in today’s office communications. See some examples below.

This is a personal project from a few people who got together to bring it to life.

. It was launched and tested on an internal slack instance. Unfortunately, Slack new API requires a new code and due to lack of fundings, the project is currently on hold.
