Peoplewisher for Slack

The Slack birthday bot that writes every message.

Peoplewisher celebrates every birthday and work anniversary in your Slack channels, with a personal message and card for each person. Set it up once. It runs every year.

  • Free to start
  • Installs in a minute
  • You approve every post

How it posts in Slack

Post the way your team celebrates.

Choose who posts, how often, and what each post includes. Set it once per channel.

Post as Peoplewisher, or as a teammate.

Let the Peoplewisher app post automatically, or post from a connected team member’s Slack account. When wishes come from someone people know, like your HR lead, they feel personal, not automated.

  • As Peoplewisher: hands-off, posts on time every time
  • As a team member: perfect for HR and people teams

Give each person their own moment with a dedicated post, or combine everyone celebrating that day into a single roundup. Busy channels stay tidy and nobody is left out.

Words and a card, together.

Every post can include a personal message and a branded celebration card with the person’s photo and name. Send the message on its own, or with the card attached.

Why it matters

  • Celebration in the open

  • Your channel, your rules

    Pick the channel, the time, the sender and whether posts need approval. Pause anytime.

FAQ

Peoplewisher for Slack: common questions.

Still have a question? Talk to us.

What is the best birthday bot for Slack?

Peoplewisher is a strong choice if you want more than a reminder. It posts birthday and work anniversary celebrations to your Slack channel with an AI-written personal message and a branded card for each person, combines celebrants on the same day, and can also send a private email or WhatsApp greeting.

Can Peoplewisher post as a person instead of a bot?

Yes. Choose to post as the Peoplewisher app or as a team member, such as the head of people or the team lead, so celebrations feel like they come from someone real.

Does it celebrate work anniversaries in Slack too?

Yes. Birthdays, work anniversaries, milestone birthdays and any custom yearly date can post to Slack. Each occasion can use its own channel and message style.

What is Claw in Slack?

Claw is the Peoplewisher AI assistant in your Slack workspace. Ask about upcoming celebrations or what needs your attention, in plain words, without leaving Slack.

How do teammates add their birthdays?

Sync dates from BambooHR, HiBob, Personio or Google Sheets, import a CSV or Excel file, or share a branded celebration form where people add their own birthday.

Is the Slack birthday bot free?

A free plan is available, so you can start without a card, and paid plans include every feature. See pricing for the current plans.
