Description

This use case demonstrates an automated incident management workflow that transforms chaotic emergency situations into organized, streamlined processes. The system monitors Slack channels for incident reports and uses AI to analyze message content, automatically creating and updating documentation in Notion while making intelligent decisions about escalation to leadership. The workflow processes incoming messages to generate three distinct types of summaries: a detailed overview, an engineering summary, and a customer-facing support message. When incidents are resolved, the system automatically updates all documentation and determines whether continued leadership notification is necessary, effectively creating a comprehensive incident management system that operates with minimal human intervention.

Key Benefits

The system significantly reduces the cognitive load on development teams during critical incidents by automating the documentation and communication processes that typically require manual effort. It ensures consistent and organized documentation of all incidents, eliminating the risk of lost information or miscommunication across different channels. The automated escalation decision-making prevents both over-notification and under-notification of leadership, while the creation of different summary types (technical, detailed, and customer-facing) saves considerable time and ensures appropriate communication to all stakeholders. Moreover, the automation of Jira ticket creation from Slack messages streamlines the workflow and reduces manual administrative tasks during critical incidents.

Time to Build Assumptions

The estimate assumes familiarity with Postman Flows, Slack API, and Notion API, as well as experience with AI implementation and prompt engineering. It assumes that all necessary API access and permissions are already set up for Slack and Notion, and that the organization has clear incident management protocols that can be translated into AI decision-making rules. The estimate includes time for testing and refinement of AI analysis accuracy, particularly for the escalation decision-making and summary generation features. This also assumes that the basic infrastructure for monitoring Slack channels is already in place.
