This task can be performed using Pondros
Stop chasing people in Slack. Pondros does it for you.
Track promised Slack follow-ups
When a teammate promises a follow-up, capture the exact deliverable, named owner, and stated date as soon as the message appears. If the date is vague, confirm one in the thread instead of creating an open-ended reminder.
Use task tracking in Slack to place each commitment on a shared board, then send a reminder when it becomes due. Close the task only when the promised file, answer, or decision is delivered, so people are not chased after completion.

More about commitment rules
A clear capture rule prevents noisy boards and strengthens team accountability. Track a message only when it names a deliverable and someone has accepted responsibility.
- Ask for a specific date when someone says “soon” or “next week.”
- Record the original Slack message with the task for context.
- Cancel or reassign stale commitments instead of repeatedly nudging the wrong owner.
