thanks @pants2!
oh wow. i should have guessed taking it off the pricing page meant the price went up, not down.
this works in private channels, but not in DMs. i think that's okay given the likelihood of things getting to much for manual parsing in a 1:1 context.
if you've got the time/inclination, I'm interested to hear more about what you're getting at with the permissions & access piece

Is Mattermost more flexible in this regard vs Slack?
That said, the Slack API limits third party apps from accessing chat history of private messages, so any implementations like this are artificially limited. In addition, if you're hosting something for your company to use, it would realistically need to take into account user permissions to make sure the AI isn't sending them data they shouldn't have access to. That could be tricky to implement correctly.
