spot-bot

Spot Bot is the relentless accountant of the surreptitious photos you take of each other.

• spot, spotted: Spot people by mentioning them in a message with the keyword spot or spotted and a picture of your spot.
• spotboard: Show how many times each channel member has spotted someone else.
• caughtboard: Show how many times each channel member has been spotted.
• pics: View all pics of a person by tagging them in a message with the pics keyword.
• referendum: Reply referendum to a spot to start a 24-hour vote to determine if the spot will count or not.
• reset: Reset the spot record in a channel.

Tips

• Look out for ✅. If you don't see ✅, your spot didn't count!
• If you didn't spot something correctly, you can edit your message within one minute of sending it to correct the error.
• If you delete a message, the spot will no longer count!
• Spotbot will treat each channel of the workspace separately so different teams can maintain their own spot boards.
