Stop Searching, Start Doing: How to Supercharge Your Team’s Productivity

Many teams think they have a knowledge problem. The reality? They have an access problem.

Information already exists—it’s in documents, onboarding guides, internal policies, and past conversations. The real challenge isn’t creating knowledge; it’s finding it quickly when it matters.

Why Searching Slows Teams Down

In Slack-driven teams, searching often feels slower than asking a teammate directly. Instead of digging through documents or message history, people interrupt others because it feels faster. Over time, this behavior becomes the norm—and quietly slows teams down.

Switching between chat tools, documents, and search results fragments focus. Work stalls. Microsoft research shows that frequent tool switching and searching increases cognitive load and reduces efficiency.

This friction is exactly what we aimed to remove.
