NEW: Web App – a simpler way to manage Slack celebrations

slack birthday bot

As teams grow, go remote, and span multiple countries, coordinating celebrations inside Slack can quickly become messy.

That’s why BirthdayBot introduces the Web App — a new dashboard that works hand-in-hand with BirthdayBot for Slack and makes managing team celebrations faster, clearer, and more scalable.

The Web App doesn’t replace the Slack experience. It enhances it, giving you visibility, control, and simplicity when you need it most.

Or use the Log in section at the Home page:



One-click access with Slack authentication

You simply authenticate with Slack: no extra accounts, no new passwords, no setup overhead. Once connected, the dashboard instantly reflects your Slack workspace, channels, and team structure.

You stay firmly anchored to Slack, with a clearer view of everything happening behind the scenes.


Intuitive Birthdays and Work Anniversaries import

The Web App introduces an intuitive import flow that lets you bring team dates into BirthdayBot in minutes, not days.

You can import any file that includes user emails and dates, and BirthdayBot will automatically map:

  • Employee birthdays

  • Work anniversaries

Once uploaded, all dates appear in the calendar. Before activation, every date can be reviewed, edited, and confirmed, so you stay fully in control. After that, BirthdayBot handles the rest, automatically sending reminders and celebration messages in Slack at the right time.


Not sure you have all the data? 

You can bulk-ask teammates directly in Slack to share their birthdays. Need to adjust a few dates or add entries manually? That’s built in too. And when BirthdayBot is added to a Slack channel, it can proactively prompt users to submit their birthday themselves, no chasing required.

The result: fewer errors, no missed milestones, and far less manual coordination.


Privacy and control

Our data privacy and protection rules remain unchanged:

  • BirthdayBot never collects or stores the year of birth — only day and month

  • If a birth year appears in an imported file, it is automatically ignored

  • Hire dates are managed by admins only; users cannot edit or overwrite them

This ensures celebrations stay respectful, compliant, and easy to manage at scale.


Beautiful calendar view

The heart of the Web App is its calendar view, designed to give you instant clarity.

You can easily:

  • Browse celebrations by month

  • Filter by birthdays or work anniversaries

  • See which Slack channel each celebration is tied to

Instead of reacting to reminders one by one, you get a complete picture of what’s coming up. This makes it easier to plan, avoid overlaps, and ensure every milestone gets the attention it deserves.

For People Ops, HR, and team leads, this alone removes hours of coordination each month.
