Use Playwise HQ in Slack
Once Slack is connected, you can capture competitive intel, get battlecard answers, and stay on top of competitors without leaving Slack. There’s nothing to install — these actions work for any rep as soon as an admin connects the workspace.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- An admin needs to have connected Slack for your account. Reps need no setup of their own.
- Slack is available on the Pro and Enterprise plans (and during your trial).
Submit competitive intel from a message
Section titled “Submit competitive intel from a message”When a colleague drops something useful in Slack — a price a prospect mentioned, a competitor claim, a feature gap — send it to Playwise HQ so it can strengthen a battlecard.
- Hover over the message, open its More actions (⋯) menu, and choose Send to Playwise. (If you don’t see it, type
/playwise submitand add your note instead.) - Playwise HQ files it into the battlecard review queue, where an admin or editor reviews it before it updates a battlecard.
The exact shortcut label may vary slightly in your workspace — look for the “Send to Playwise” action on a message.
Ask a question, answered from your battlecards
Section titled “Ask a question, answered from your battlecards”Need a fast answer mid-conversation? Ask Playwise HQ directly in Slack.
- In any channel or DM, type
/playwisefollowed by your question — for example, how you compare on pricing or how to handle a specific objection. - Playwise HQ replies using your team’s approved battlecard content, so the answer matches how your company positions.
If Playwise HQ can’t answer from your battlecards, it quietly logs the gap so your admins know what content to add.
Follow a competitor for alerts
Section titled “Follow a competitor for alerts”Follow the competitors you sell against and Playwise HQ will message you when their battlecard changes.
- On a competitor’s battlecard, click Follow in Slack (it switches to Following in Slack). Click it again to unfollow.
- Or type
/playwise subscribein Slack to follow from there.
You’ll get a direct message when a battlecard you follow changes — either in real time or as a weekly digest.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- Answers only ever draw on approved battlecard content, not unreviewed submissions.
- Command and shortcut labels can differ slightly between workspaces; the actions themselves work the same way.
