Anonymous Suggestion Box for Slack

The suggestion box that lives where work already does.

Replace the wooden box by the printer. Your team submits suggestions anonymously in Slack, everyone can weigh in, and leaders close the loop in the same thread — without anyone signing their name.

Why a Slack-native suggestion box

Google Forms goes into a black hole.

The reason most suggestion boxes go unused isn't that people don't have ideas. It's that the ideas land in a spreadsheet only one person reads, nobody else in the company knows the idea exists, and there's no way to follow up without outing the submitter. A Slack-native box fixes all three at once.

01

Visible to peers

Suggestions post to a channel everyone can see. Good ideas get upvoted into view. Bad ones quietly lose the popularity contest.

02

Two-way, still anonymous

Leaders can ask follow-up questions in the thread. Submitters can answer without breaking anonymity — a conversation, not a dropbox.

03

No context switch

People are already in Slack. Typing /anony is faster than opening a form, remembering a URL, or installing another tool.

How it works

Four steps. Zero training.

1

Pick a channel

#suggestions, #ideas, or a scoped channel only admins post in. The bot lives wherever you invite it.

2

Type /anony

Anyone on the team writes a suggestion in the modal. Their Slack name never enters the payload.

3

Post, react, reply

The bot posts as itself. Others upvote, react, and reply anonymously in the thread.

4

Close the loop

Leaders respond in the same thread. Everyone sees the response — no one sees the author.

What you get

Built for suggestions that don't get filed away.

Any channel, any suggestion

No separate tool, no portal. The suggestion box is wherever the bot is invited — public #ideas, private #leadership-inbox, or a dedicated channel.

Approval queue (Enterprise)

Route every submission through a moderator before it posts. Useful for regulated industries or when you want a human in the loop for sensitive topics.

Anonymous thread replies

The hardest part of a suggestion box is follow-up. Teammates and leaders can reply anonymously in the same thread — no one needs to sign their name to push back or support an idea.

One-click flagging

Unlimited moderators on Plus and Enterprise. A single flag from a moderator removes bad-faith posts instantly.

Community auto-hide

Five downvotes with a majority flag hides the post automatically after a five-minute cool-down — trolls don't derail the real suggestions.

Your Slack name stays off the channel

The bot posts, not you. Admins can't see authorship unless Enterprise audit mode is on and every sender has been disclosed.

Where teams run it

Four suggestion boxes, one bot.

Product & ops

Capture the process gripes that never make it into the retro because they feel 'too small' to bring up.

Culture & perks

What would make the office worth coming back to? What's not working about the offsite format? The honest answers only show up anonymously.

Leadership inbox

A scoped channel where the leadership team collects unfiltered suggestions — with anonymous thread replies so leaders can ask follow-up questions without unmasking anyone.

New-hire feedback

The 30/60/90-day 'what's broken that I, as a new hire, can see clearly?' — the suggestions you'd lose once the new hire acclimates to the existing norms.

FAQ

Questions teams ask.

A suggestion box isn't a tool. It's a habit you build.

Install Anony Botter in under a minute, invite it to a channel, and your team has somewhere to put the suggestions they've been sitting on.
