jared.so · Productivity · Chatbot

Jared is an AI employee that lives inside Slack and WhatsApp, connects to more than 10,000 tools, and picks up work the way a teammate would. Instead of waiting for someone to open a chat window, Jared watches the team channels it belongs to and handles requests on its own, from booking calls to chasing down details in other apps. It's built for teams that already run their day in Slack and want an AI coworker who fits into that flow, not another dashboard to check. That distinction matters more than it sounds.

About jared.so

What Is Jared

Jared is an AI employee for Slack and WhatsApp, built by the team at jared.so. The pitch is simple: it behaves like a coworker rather than a chatbot. Jared joins your channels, learns what your team talks about, and acts on tasks directly instead of just drafting a reply you have to copy somewhere else.

It connects to over 10,000 tools, so the work doesn't stop at conversation. Ask the Jared AI employee to pull a figure from a spreadsheet, send a message to a customer, or schedule something, and it moves between the apps your team already uses. It also keeps an org memory, meaning it carries context about people, projects, and past decisions across conversations.

The catch is that Jared is an AI agent for teams, not a personal assistant. There's no real single-user mode. The value comes from shared channels and shared memory, so it makes most sense once a group already works together in Slack or WhatsApp. Pricing starts at $100 per month. That rules it out if you just want a free AI helper for occasional questions.

Getting Started

  1. Create an account at jared.so and pick the Starter or Pro plan.
  2. Connect Jared to your Slack workspace, and add WhatsApp if your team uses it for client chats.
  3. Invite Jared into the channels where it should listen and work, such as a project or support channel.
  4. Link the tools it needs, like your calendar, drive, or CRM, from the connections list.
  5. Give Jared its first task in plain language and check the result before handing it more sensitive work.

Key features

Lives in Slack and WhatsApp

Jared joins the channels your team already uses instead of asking everyone to adopt a new app. It listens for requests in Slack, and it works in WhatsApp too, which matters for teams whose clients won't install anything else. You talk to it like a coworker, in normal language, and it figures out what you want done. No special syntax.

10,000+ Tool Connections

The real work happens outside the chat, so Jared connects to more than 10,000 tools to follow through. That covers the usual suspects, like calendars, documents, and CRMs, and lets Jared move data between them. The result is fewer tasks that stall because someone has to leave Slack to finish them. Less tab-switching, less waiting.

Org Memory

Jared remembers the people, projects, and decisions that keep coming up in your team's conversations. Instead of re-explaining who owns what every time, you can reference a project by name and Jared knows the context. That's the whole point. For teams with a lot of shared history, that memory is what makes Jared feel less like a search box and more like a teammate.

Proactive Task Handling

Jared doesn't wait to be pinged for everything. It can take on tasks that come up in a channel and see them through. That's the difference between an assistant and a coworker. Start with clearer, well-scoped jobs and tighten the guardrails before letting it run loose on anything sensitive.

IRL Voice

Alongside chat, Jared handles IRL voice, meaning it can take part in or place actual calls. Pro gives you unlimited minutes. Starter caps them. It extends Jared's reach beyond text. Test it carefully before you point it at real customers.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Works inside Slack and WhatsApp, so there's no new dashboard for the team to learn.
  • Connects to 10,000+ tools, which lets it finish tasks rather than just discuss them.
  • Org memory keeps context across conversations, useful for teams with long shared history.
  • Runs 24/7, so requests don't sit until someone's workday starts.
  • Handles IRL voice, covering calls that a text-only assistant can't touch.

Cons

  • No free plan and a $100 monthly floor, which is steep for individuals or tiny teams.
  • Limited to Slack and WhatsApp, so teams on Teams or Discord are out of luck.
  • No documented public API, which makes custom integrations harder to build.
  • Proactive behavior cuts both ways: giving an agent write access to your tools carries real risk if it misfires.
