5 Reasons to Choose MAKi Over Slack
Slack is great for chatting. But when it comes to actually getting work done, it falls short.
Here’s why MAKi isn’t just another chat app but the smarter way to run projects.
1. Conversations instantly become action items
In Slack, ideas disappear in endless threads.
In MAKi, every message can be turned into a task linked to deadlines, owners, and even the right docs.
👉 No more “Where did that comment go?” moments.
2. Chat is where every project starts anyway
Let’s be real: every project begins with a chat room.
Slack keeps the talk, but not the follow-through.
MAKi makes chat the core of project execution, not just the starting point.
3. Covers Jira’s territory (without the bloat)
Most teams use Slack + Jira. One for conversation, one for tracking.
But Jira is heavy, and Slack isn’t built for tasks.
MAKi bridges that gap turning chats into trackable tickets in one click.
4. Like Notion, you can create pages and docs
Projects always need organized docs: meeting notes, briefs, references.
MAKi automatically turns conversations or voice recordings into docs with action items,
and lets you create structured pages just like Notion.
5. No more tool overload
Slack, Jira, Notion, Asana… tool fatigue is real.
MAKi replaces that messy chain with one seamless flow:
Chat → Task → Doc → Deliverable.
Fewer tools, less context switching, more actual work.

Slack is great for conversation.
But MAKi is built for conversation-to-execution.
It’s the new operating system for modern teams.
