About Stayslit

Stayslit is an independent service that keeps your Slack status active on your schedule.

Why it exists

Many people work flexible hours, run an errand mid-day or simply close the laptop at lunch. Slack, though, shows you as away as soon as your computer stops sending activity, even when you鈥檙e perfectly reachable.

Stayslit exists so your status reflects your working hours instead of whether a laptop lid is open.

What it does, and what it doesn鈥檛

  • It keeps your presence indicator green during the hours you choose.
  • It does not read, write or send messages, and it never opens your channels or files.
  • It does not hide anything from your employer or make you look like you worked when you didn鈥檛. It only controls how your status looks to colleagues.

Independent and transparent

Stayslit is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Slack Technologies or Microsoft. Slack and Microsoft Teams are trademarks of their respective owners.

Your credentials are stored encrypted and used only to keep your presence during your schedule. You can disconnect and delete everything at any time.

Use it responsibly

Your employer鈥檚 rules come first. Read your company鈥檚 policy before using a tool like this: you are responsible for how you use it. Our terms of service say the same.

Close the laptop. Keep the green dot.

Set it up once in about two minutes and Stayslit takes care of the rest, every working day.
