Lou Tag: give your workers to-dos from Discord
Lou Tag is the Little Worker app for Discord. Add it to your server and pick one channel. A message there from a linked member becomes a to-do for your worker, and the answer comes back in a thread on that message.
No separate price. Lou Tag comes with Little Worker.
Set it up once.
Setup happens once, in the web app. After that, your team asks where it already talks.
Add it to your server.
In Little Worker on the web, open Apps, then Discord, and click Add to Server. An owner or an admin of your workspace picks the server, the channel, and the worker who gets the work.
Link your Discord.
Each person clicks Link My Discord once. Only members of your workspace who linked their account can give work there.
Write in the channel.
Your message becomes a to-do. The worker starts a thread on it to say it has the work, and posts the answer there when it is done, with Open in Little Worker for the whole chat.
Pick who answers.
The channel goes to your main worker, or to any worker on your team. Change it any time in Apps, and the next message goes to the new pick.
You stay in charge.
Lou Tag brings the work to where your team talks. The rules stay the ones you set in Little Worker.
Allow or Not Now, in the thread.
When a worker needs a yes for a step that can be undone, the card comes to the thread with Allow and Not Now. Only the person who gave the to-do can answer it.
Some steps wait for the app.
A step that sends, pays, posts, deletes or reaches other people is answered only in Little Worker. The thread says so and links to the chat.
One channel, linked people only.
Lou Tag reads new messages in the one channel your workspace picks, and nothing else. Messages from anyone who has not linked, and from other Discord apps, are passed over and not kept.
Your words stay in your workspace.
Each to-do lives in the worker's chat, like the rest of your work. Little Worker does not use Discord data to train AI.
Coming soon: alerts in Discord.
Lou Tag will also watch your sites and tools. This part is in a private beta and is not available to customers yet.
Alerts from the tools you use.
Sentry, UptimeRobot, GitHub Actions, Grafana, or any service that can send an alert to a web address.
Uptime checks.
Little Worker will check your sites and services on its own, and post when one stops answering.
An incident with a thread.
Each alert will post as an incident with its own thread, so the talk about it stays in one place.
A likely cause and next steps.
Each incident will come with a suggested cause and next steps, from the AI your workspace picks: Little Worker AI or your own AI.
Questions
What does Lou Tag cost?
Lou Tag has no price of its own. It comes with Little Worker, and the work it starts counts like any other work on your subscription. Pricing has the subscriptions.
Who can give work in Discord?
Members of your workspace who linked their Discord account in Little Worker. A person removed from the workspace can no longer give work, and messages from anyone else are left alone.
Do I have to mention Lou?
No. Every new message from a linked member in the chosen channel becomes a to-do, so keep that channel for work. Lou Tag checks it every minute, so a to-do starts within about a minute.
Does Lou Tag read my other channels?
No. It reads new messages only in the one channel your workspace picks. Messages written before the channel was picked are not work.
When are alerts coming?
Alerts and uptime checks are in a private beta. They are not offered to customers yet, and What's New will say when they are.
