workplace AI and productivity software
A workplace software company called Darwinbox has connected its human resources tool to Slack so workers can handle HR requests inside chat messages. Investors care because bringing tools directly into messaging apps helps companies sell more software by making it easier to use.

Darwinbox launched its AI-powered human capital management platform on the Slack Marketplace.
Who wins / who loses
