FAQ¶
Updates¶
Can I edit my update after submitting?¶
Yes. You can edit your update any time before the report is generated. Use the App Home tab to find your pending update, or submit a new update for the same team - it replaces the previous one.
How do I skip a standup?¶
Click the Skip button on the prompt message. You can optionally provide a reason. Skipping records you as “skipped” in the report rather than “missed”, so your team knows it was intentional.
What happens if I miss a standup?¶
If you don’t submit an update and don’t skip, you are marked as “missed” in the report. You can still submit updates outside the prompt window using /daylee update or the App Home.
Can I submit an update without receiving a prompt?¶
Yes. Use /daylee update from any channel or click Submit Update in the App Home tab. This works regardless of the prompt schedule.
Can I send a voice message instead of typing?¶
Yes. Record a voice clip in Slack and send it as a DM to Daylee. The audio is automatically transcribed and submitted as your update. Supported audio formats include M4A, MP3, MP4, OGG, WAV, and WebM (max 25 MB).
Teams¶
Can I be in multiple teams?¶
Yes. You can be a member of multiple teams and submit separate updates for each. Your pending updates for all teams appear in the App Home tab.
Can I be an admin of one team and a member of another?¶
Yes. Roles are per-team. You can be an admin in one team and a regular member in another.
Who can create a team?¶
Any Slack user in the workspace can create a team. The creator automatically becomes the team’s admin.
What happens when a team is deleted?¶
The team becomes inactive - no more prompts are sent and no reports are generated. Historical data (updates and reports) is retained but the team no longer appears in the App Home.
Scheduling and Timezones¶
How do timezone differences work?¶
It depends on the team’s timezone mode:
Member timezone (default): Each member gets the prompt at the configured time in their own timezone. A 9:00 AM prompt means 9:00 AM local time for everyone.
Team timezone: All members receive the prompt at the same moment, based on the team’s timezone.
Can I set my own timezone?¶
Yes. Individual members can set a personal timezone preference that overrides the team timezone for prompt delivery (when the team uses member timezone mode).
When are reports generated?¶
Reports follow the team’s report schedule. Daily reports are typically configured for end-of-day (e.g., 5:00 PM). Admins can also generate reports on demand with /daylee standup.
Reports¶
Who can generate on-demand reports?¶
Only team admins can generate reports on demand using /daylee standup. All team members can view reports in the configured report channel.
What does the AI summary include?¶
The AI analyzes all submitted updates and highlights key themes, blockers, achievements, and patterns. Teams with a project context set in team settings get more relevant summaries. If task tracker integrations are connected, the AI also incorporates development activity (commits, PRs, issues) into its analysis.
How long are reports kept?¶
Report history depends on your plan: 7 days on Free, 90 days on Standard and Pro, unlimited on Enterprise. Reports older than your plan’s limit are retained in the database but not accessible.
Retrospectives¶
What’s the difference between a report and a retrospective?¶
A report covers a single day’s standup updates. A retrospective analyzes trends across multiple daily reports - typically one to four weeks - to identify patterns, recurring blockers, and progress over time.
Who can generate a retrospective?¶
Only team admins. Use /daylee retro or select Retrospectives from the team overflow menu in the App Home.
Are retrospectives available on the Free plan?¶
No. Retrospectives are a Pro and Enterprise feature. They are available during the 14-day free trial.
Integrations¶
What do integrations add to reports?¶
When a task tracker (GitHub, JIRA, or Linear) is connected, each team member’s recent development activity is automatically included in standup reports. The AI uses this activity alongside standup responses for richer summaries.
Do I need to link my account for integrations to work?¶
Yes. After a workspace admin connects an integration, each team member needs to link their own account (e.g., GitHub username) so Daylee can match activity to the right person. Members who don’t link their account won’t have development activity in their reports.
Which plans include integrations?¶
Integrations are an Enterprise feature. Free, Standard, and Pro plans do not include task tracker integrations.
Availability¶
How do I set vacation / out-of-office?¶
Use /daylee ooo or click Set Availability in the App Home. Choose your availability type (Out of Office, Vacation, or Busy), set it for all teams or a specific team, and provide a date range. During your absence, you won’t receive prompts and won’t be marked as “missed.”
Is availability tracking available on the Free plan?¶
No. Availability tracking is available on Standard, Pro, and Enterprise plans. Free plan members who need to skip a day can use the Skip button on the prompt instead.
Billing¶
How does per-user billing work?¶
Billing is based on active users - members who submitted at least one update during the billing period. You only pay for people who actually use Daylee.
What happens when my trial ends?¶
Your workspace automatically moves to the Free plan. All data is retained. Paid features (unlimited teams, full AI summaries, availability, weekly/monthly reports, retrospectives) become unavailable until you upgrade.
Can I get another trial?¶
No. Each workspace gets one 14-day trial when Daylee is first installed.
Who can manage billing?¶
Slack workspace admins/owners and the person who installed Daylee. Team admins within Daylee cannot manage billing.
What happens if I cancel my subscription?¶
You get a 7-day grace period with full access to paid features. After that, the workspace reverts to the Free plan. All data is kept but subject to Free plan limits.
