Vellum has launched agent-to-agent communication in Slack, enabling autonomous AI assistants to coordinate tasks, negotiate dates, and gather input from team members. Each assistant retains its own user’s history and preferences, and permissions remain isolated by default, only shared when necessary. This development allows AI assistants to function as coworkers within the Slack environment, enhancing workplace collaboration by supporting task splitting and other interactive capabilities.
