Slackbot is a personal AI agent with access to all of the context and information in your Slack workspace, plus powerful tools like MCP connections, skills to complete complex tasks, and more. The number of messages you can send to Slackbot and which features you can use depend on your plan.

Note: Owners and admins can turn Slackbot on and off for their entire workspace or organization.

What to expect

• Each Slack plan has a different limit on how many messages members can send to Slackbot. For Business+ plans, the limit resets weekly, but for Free and Pro plans, it doesn’t reset unless you upgrade. Enterprise plans are limited only by Slack’s overall usage policies.
• Some advanced features have additional daily or monthly limits.
• You can use Salesforce Flex Credits to purchase additional Slackbot usage. 

Slackbot limits by plan

Free & Pro plans

By default, customers on the Slack Free and Pro plans only get access to Slackbot during a trial or preview. Once you’ve used all of the messages included in your Slackbot preview, you’ll no longer be able to use Slackbot unless you upgrade or enable Flex Credits.

Business+ plans

Each member of a Business+ workspace can send 15 messages to Slackbot per week, starting Monday and ending Sunday. Once you reach your limit, you won’t be able to send new messages to Slackbot until it resets at 12 a.m. Monday in your time zone.

Note: Legacy Business+ plans with Slack AI add-on have the same Slackbot capabilities and limits as the new Business+ plan. 

Enterprise plans

Members of Enterprise+ organizations (as well as Enterprise Select or Enterprise Grid organizations with the Slack AI add-on) are not subject to weekly or lifetime message limits. 

Plans with Salesforce Flex Credits

If you've connected a Salesforce organization to your Free, Pro, or Business+ Slack workspace, you can use Flex Credits for Slackbot usage beyond the limits in place for your plan. A Workspace Owner or Workspace Admin in Slack and a Salesforce Admin in Salesforce have to enable Flex Credits for Slackbot, and members’ increased usage will be charged based on the rates outlined in the Flex Credits Rate Card. 

Slackbot limits by feature

Task limits

While there’s no limit on the number of tasks you can create, you get three automatic task runs per day. Once you reach the daily limit, Slackbot will ask if you'd like to run tasks manually. The daily limit resets at 12 a.m. in your time zone.

Skill limits

Skills aren’t available to use on the Free plan, unless you’re using Flex Credits to pay for additional Slackbot usage. 

Advanced feature limits and pricing

Slack may move to alternative commercial models for advanced Slackbot capabilities released after June 2026, like third-party content creation and automated actions. This may include usage limits, consumption pricing, or a hybrid approach. Slack will provide written notice 30 days before usage-based pricing becomes effective. 

Usage limits

All Slackbot interactions must comply with our Acceptable Use Policy. Additionally, you may not attempt to overwhelm Slack’s infrastructure by imposing a disproportionate load on our system. This includes any activity that consumes excessive computing resources:

• Automated high frequency requests
  Using bots, scripts, or scrapers to send requests to our servers at a frequency that exceeds human capability or standard browser use. 
• Capability circumvention
  Engaging in activities designed to bypass limits.

Violation of these policies constitutes a material breach of the Main Services Agreement (MSA) and may result in immediate service suspension or account termination.
