Boo — Product Overview

What Boo Is

Boo is an AI agent that operates as a teammate inside your company's communication tools. It sits in Slack and Microsoft Teams channels, answers questions, completes tasks, and — critically — remembers everything. The longer Boo is with your team, the more valuable it becomes.

How It Works

Just talk. If you can message a coworker, you can work with Boo. No dashboards, no query syntax, no tickets to the data team.

  1. Install — Add Boo to your Slack workspace or Teams environment
  2. Connect tools — Link GitHub, Linear, Notion, Google Drive, Jira, Salesforce, and more
  3. Invite to channels — Boo can only see channels it's been invited to
  4. Start working — Ask questions, assign tasks, or just say hi

Core Capabilities

Persistent Memory

Boo builds a private, vault-encrypted memory for each workspace. Memory is isolated per customer — nothing is shared across workspaces. Knowledge compounds over time: every conversation, decision, and correction makes Boo smarter.

Self-Learning Skills

Boo's skills system is a core differentiator. Unlike marketplace plugins built for generic use cases:

  1. Boo notices a pattern — the team keeps asking the same type of question
  2. Boo creates a skill — encodes the org's context, edge cases, and preferences
  3. Everyone benefits — next time anyone asks, Boo already knows the answer

Skills are stored as SKILL.md files — structured markdown documents that define capabilities, workflows, and constraints. Non-engineers can author and edit skills from the dashboard.

Progressive Trust Model

Level Capability
Read-only Watches, learns, answers questions
Suggest Makes recommendations
Act with approval Takes actions after human approval
Autonomous Operates independently

Every permission is explicit. Every action is logged. Boo never takes more than you give.

Integrations

Boo connects to the tools your team already uses:

  • Communication: Slack, Microsoft Teams
  • Project Management: Linear, Jira
  • Documentation: Notion, Google Drive
  • Development: GitHub
  • CRM: Salesforce

Each integration makes every answer smarter — not just for the person who connected it, but for everyone on the team.

Heartbeats (Scheduled Tasks)

Boo can run scheduled/recurring tasks (heartbeats) on a cron cadence. The capability is enabled by default, but no default tasks run until the customer configures their own.

Artifacts

Boo can create artifacts — standalone deliverables like landing pages, documents, or reports — with security features including basic password protection, OTP, and SSO.

Architecture

App Bundles

Boo ships functionality through app bundles — manifest-driven packages containing an app, skills, and heartbeats. Current and planned bundles include:

  • LLM Wiki — AI-powered company knowledge base (Postgres + pgvector)
  • Content Factory — AI-powered content production system
  • AI Visibility Tracker — tracks brand mentions in AI search results (Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity)

Bundles follow the pattern: build for Boo Lab first, validate, then ship to all customers.

Infrastructure

  • Hosting: Railway (primary), AWS, Vercel (marketing site only)
  • LLM Providers: Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini
  • Security: Data encrypted at rest and in transit (TLS), US-based data residency
  • Monitoring: PostHog

Security & Privacy

  • Customer data is never used to train AI models
  • Each customer's data is logically isolated; prompts and responses are never shared across customers
  • All LLM providers process data under per-request API terms with no model training
  • All inference runs through APIs in the United States
  • SOC 2 certification is being pursued
  • Full sub-processor list at boolab.ai/legal/subprocessors
