Slack Invite Robot

  • Community Inviter is for auto invitations for Slack Good comments are on Product Hunt
  • LaunchPass is also to charge for access to Slack community, but supports free access for free. It doesn’t work, probably abandoned.
  • InviteRobot is to monetize your Slack communities and make them billable.

Invite robot apps (Heroku, etc)

Slack Welcome message

I could host it by myself, as explained here: (Sending a notification to new users) or you can use free GreetBot or Janitr, for example. Explained: Welcome new employees to your team

Website & custom domain?

I don’t think I need a domain, at all. Primary reasons to own one is to copy of Slack communication on public space, for SEO purposes.

But if needed, the domain pricing was:

k8s-belgrade.org ($11.31/yr) k8s-belgrade.com ($8.5/y)

Rebrandly URL shortener also supports custom domains, for free.
