Draft Internal Announcement

What it does

Takes your bullet points about company news (new hire, policy change, office closure) and uses AI to draft a polished, professional company-wide announcement that’s automatically posted to your team Slack channel.

Why I recommend it

Internal comms matter for company culture, but leaders often delay announcements because writing them feels time-consuming. AI removes that friction, ensuring timely,well-written communication without the writing burden.

Expected benefits

  • Faster internal communication
  • More consistent announcement tone
  • Less time spent wordsmithing updates
  • Better team alignment and transparency

How it works

Leader submits bullet points via form or Slack command -> AI drafts announcement in company voice -> leader reviews and approves (or sends directly if trusted) -> post to Slack #announcements channel.

Quick start

Start by having AI draft announcements that you review before posting. After 5-10 successful drafts where you make minimal edits, trust the AI to post directly for low-stakes announcements.

Level-up version

Train the AI on your company’s tone and past announcements so it matches your voice perfectly. Add automatic formatting (headings, emojis, threading) and cross-post to email for remote team members who miss Slack.

Tools you can use

Forms: Google Forms, Typeform, Tally

AI: ChatGPT API, Claude API

Communication: Slack, Teams, Email

Automation: Zapier, Make, n8n

Also works with

Communication platforms: Microsoft Teams, Discord, all-hands emails

AI tools: GPT-4, Claude, company-trained models

Approval: Google Docs for review before posting

Technical implementation solution

  • No-code: Google Form for bullet points -> send to ChatGPT via Zapier -> format response -> post to Slack or send to leader for approval first.
  • API-based: Form webhook -> Claude API with prompt template and company voice guidelines -> format output -> Slack API post to #announcements channel.

Where it gets tricky

Getting the AI to match your company tone (casual vs formal), handling sensitive announcements that need human judgment, and balancing speed with accuracy for critical communications.
