The Reteno Agent in Slack: How It Works

The Reteno agent is available directly in Slack. Instead of logging into the platform, opening reports, or editing templates manually, you and your team can work with your Reteno account through natural language — in a channel your CS manager sets up for you.

To get access, contact the Reteno team.

A New Way to Work with Reteno

Most marketing platforms work the same way: you log in, navigate to the right section, find what you need, make a change, and log out. Every task requires context-switching, and every team member needs their own access and training.

The Reteno agent in Slack works differently. Your team gets a dedicated channel where anyone can ask the agent to pull data, edit a template, build a segment, or analyze campaign performance — without opening Reteno at all. The agent handles the execution. You focus on the decision.

This is not a chatbot or a help widget. It is a direct connection to your Reteno account, operating through natural language.

Architecture

The connection works in three layers:

Slack → Agent → Reteno

When you send a message in the channel, the agent interprets your request and acts on your behalf — calling the relevant Reteno API through an MCP connection, making changes directly in Reteno, and returning the result in the thread.

Nothing needs to be installed or integrated on your side. You work in our Slack workspace — not yours. There is no need to configure API keys, set up webhooks, or involve your development team. The entire infrastructure is managed by Reteno.

Your data stays within the same secure connection used by the Reteno platform. The agent only has access to the organization linked to your channel.

How a Conversation Works

Each channel is connected to one Reteno organization. When you start a thread, the agent works within the context of that organization for the entire conversation.

To address the agent, mention it with @reteno in your message:

• @reteno Show me the Open and Click metrics for my last 5 workflows.
• @reteno Translate email template ID 3935987 into German.
• @reteno Which workflows had the highest click rate last month?

Each thread keeps its own context. If you start a new thread, the agent begins fresh. If you continue an existing thread, the agent remembers what was already discussed.
