Slack integration
Your finance data,
one Slack message
away.
Ask Kipper a question in Slack and get a real answer from your finance system in seconds. No login, no training, no waiting for Bob.
Which invoices are overdue by more than 30 days?
Found 7 invoices overdue 30+ days:
Did Acme Corp pay their last invoice?
Yes — Acme Corp paid invoice #INV-2847 on Nov 14, 2024.
The shift
Stop asking Bob.
Start asking Kipper.
Every company has a Bob in Finance — the person who fields Slack messages all day from colleagues asking about invoices, payment status, and inventory levels. Bob costs $200K a year, and a big chunk of that salary goes to answering questions that AI can handle instantly.
Kipper replaces those interruptions. Anyone on your team can ask a question in Slack — at any hour, in any channel they have access to — and get an answer sourced directly from your finance system.
Built for Slack
Not a chatbot bolted onto Slack — a Slack app, designed for it.
Six things Kipper gets right about working inside Slack — that most "AI for finance" tools don't.
Lives where your team already lives
Works in any channel or DM — no new tab to open, no new tool for your team to learn. If they're in Slack, they have access to finance.
Answers come back in-thread
Every answer drops into the conversation as a regular Slack message. React, share to another channel, or quote it in a follow-up — same as any teammate's reply.
Slack's permissions, respected
Private channels stay private. Kipper only joins channels you invite it to, and only answers for users your admins have approved in the portal.
No new login. Slack SSO.
Your team is already authenticated in Slack. There's no second password, no extra MFA prompt, no IT-managed account to provision per user.
Every question, in the audit log
Every question and answer is recorded in the admin portal — who asked, when, in which channel, and what data the answer touched. Export anytime.
Installs from the Slack App Directory
Standard OAuth install. Your IT team reviews scopes the same way they do for any other Slack app — and can revoke access in two clicks if they ever need to.
How it works
Up and running in under an hour.
Connect your finance system
Link NetSuite, QuickBooks, or Xero through our admin portal. We cache your full dataset for fast queries.
Set up permissions
Choose what financial data is visible — full access, or just the areas that matter to each team.
Install on Slack
Add the Slack app from the App Directory and invite it to the channels your team should be able to ask in.
Each teammate's Slack email must match their Kipper account email — that's how Kipper links a Slack identity to your workspace's access rules.
Start asking questions
Type a question in plain English. Get an answer in ~5 seconds, sourced from your finance data.

And about ten thousand more. If it's in your finance system, it's a question Kipper can answer.
Show me our P&L for Q4 by subsidiary
Sorry, Financial Reports are not available in this channel. You have access to: Inventory levels, Sales Orders, and Fulfillment Status.
A user without "Financial Reports" permission asks for a P&L. Kipper refuses — and logs the attempt.
Read-only & private
Your finance data,
on a tight leash.
The four design choices that make Kipper safe to put in front of a CFO and an IT reviewer in the same room.
-
Read-only by architecture. Kipper cannot create, edit, or approve transactions. There is no write path — not behind a flag, not for admins, not ever.
-
You decide what's queryable. Configure exactly which records, accounts, and subsidiaries are visible. Sensitive areas like payroll or executive compensation can be excluded entirely.
-
Different teams, different views. Use permission sets to give Sales access to AR but not P&L, or restrict a region to only its own subsidiary. Same install, different scopes.
-
Your data isn't training anything. Your finance data is never used to train, fine-tune, or improve any AI model — ours or anyone else's. It's queried and discarded.
Wait, what about…
The four questions everyone asks before they install.
Will it hallucinate numbers?
No. Every answer is a structured query against a cached copy of your real finance data — not a language model guessing. If a question is ambiguous or the data isn't there, Kipper says so instead of inventing a number.
Where does my data actually go?
Your data is cached in AWS and never sent to OpenAI training, shared with third parties, or used to train any model. You control which records the system can even see through data access configurations.
What if we want to remove it?
Uninstall like any Slack app — two clicks from your Slack workspace admin. Disconnecting from your finance system clears the cached data within 24 hours. Audit logs are retained per your account's data retention policy.
Will it slow down our Slack?
No. Kipper only responds when it's mentioned or asked a question, and replies in about five seconds. It doesn't post unprompted, doesn't watch other conversations, and doesn't index your messages.
