Summarize saved messages with AI
AI summary uses Atlassian Intelligence to automatically summarize a Slack message, extract due dates, create a relevant title, and put action items in a checklist. It will also attach the original Slack message to the card, allowing you to compare the AI-generated card to the original message.
AI summary is on by default, and works independently of Workspace AI settings.
To enable or disable AI summary for Slack messages you send to your Inbox:
Open Slack then go to the Trello app
Open the Trello app’s Home tab
Enable or disable Summarize with AI
By default, the card will immediately go to your Trello Inbox. If you’d prefer to choose a different board or add extra details when creating the card, you can toggle Allow card customization.
The AI summary feature is available in all paid plans. If your account is managed by an Enterprise that has AI disabled you won’t be able to use or enable AI summary features for your Inbox.
