Slack App

Automated release notes
delivered to Slack

Shipstar connects to your code repositories, generates human-readable changelogs and release notes from your commits and PRs, and posts them directly to your Slack channels. No manual work, no context switching.

From code to Slack in three steps

Shipstar watches your repositories for changes, generates marketing-ready content, and delivers it to Slack automatically.

1

Connect your repos

Link your GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket repositories. Shipstar monitors commits, PRs, and releases automatically.

2

Content is generated

Shipstar analyzes your changes and generates changelogs, release notes, and product updates — written for humans, not developers.

3

Published to Slack

Approved content is posted to your chosen Slack channels instantly or on a schedule. Your team stays informed without lifting a finger.

Built for teams that ship fast

Channel routing

Send engineering release notes to #dev, customer-facing updates to #product, and executive summaries to #leadership — all from the same release.

Rich formatting

Messages use Slack Block Kit with proper markdown, emoji, code snippets, and structured change lists. They look native to Slack.

Scheduled delivery

Post immediately when content is approved, or schedule for a specific time to align with your deployment cadence.

Review notifications

Get notified in Slack when new content is ready for review. Approve or edit directly from the Shipstar dashboard.
