Slack App (Leave, Approvals + Check-ins)
ASHR where work already happens — leave, balances, approvals, check-ins and nudges, natively in Slack.
The problem
Employees won’t log into "the HR portal" for a two-minute task, so leave requests, approvals and check-ins pile up. The tool that owns the data is the tool nobody opens.
How we solve it
ASHR.work ships a native Slack app. Each workspace installs it via OAuth, employees link their identity once, and then the everyday HR rituals — apply for leave, check a balance, approve a request, complete a FASTIFY check-in — happen inside Slack. Admins still get the full web portal; employees barely leave their DMs.
How it works
- 1
Install to your workspace
An admin installs the ASHR Slack app via OAuth; tokens are stored encrypted, per tenant.
- 2
Link identity once
Each employee runs /ashr connect and links their Slack user to their ASHR profile with a secure magic link.
- 3
Do the work in Slack
Apply for leave, check balances, see the team, approve requests from a DM, get appraisal and leave-digest notifications, and complete FASTIFY check-ins — all without opening a browser.
Why it’s effective
Adoption where portals fail
Meeting employees in Slack turns two-minute tasks from "later" into "done now".
Approvals in the flow of work
Managers approve leave straight from a DM, so requests don’t wait for someone to log in.
Secure by construction
Signed request verification, encrypted per-tenant tokens, and identity linking keep the convenience from costing security.
