Workato Launches AI Agent Otto with Deep Slack Integration for Automated Collaboration
adamse · x · 2026-08-20
Workato launches Otto, an AI agent that acts as a teammate in Slack, autonomously handling project management, scheduling, content generation, and more. Built on enterprise MCP, Otto runs 24/7 in the cloud with safety-by-design (full capability, never full access). The author notes Slack is winning again due to developer extensibility, creating a virtuous cycle.
