Based in Turkey, the new SaaS (software as a service) venture automates the way you people join your Slack community. Currently in beta, Community Inviter is extremely easy to use. You simply connect with Slack -- an internal messaging platform for teams -- and then create your badge or landing page so you can approve members. This last step can be done automatically or manually. The basic tool to [send invitations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invitesocial) can be customized so you ask questions of potential members from your landing page first, or simply grab their email address. It's also an easy way for members to join your Slack community. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 14% | Activity: 20% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/business) > [New Ventures](https://www.trendhunter.com/newventures) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Automated Messaging Invitations:** Opportunity for businesses to automate their messaging invitations and grow their online communities. - **Community Management Software:** Opportunity to develop community management software tools to improve collaboration and communication. - **Slack Integration:** Opportunity for software developers to create Slack integration tools for community management. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Software-as-a-service (saas):** Opportunity for SaaS startups to focus on community management and online collaboration tools. - **Online Community Management:** Opportunity for businesses to enhance their online community management strategies and tools. - **Software Development:** Opportunity for software developers to create new tools and platforms for community management and collaboration. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Empowering AI Enthusiast Support](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aimidus-community-on-slack.md) - [Community Discovery Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audience-list.md) - [Community-Oriented Engagement Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/readyup-app.md) - [Streamlined Start-Up Job Searching](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/startup-jobs-by-binh-pham.md) - [Micro SaaS Communities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/makerstower.md) - [Incentive Automation Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automates-growth.md) - [Workplace Automation Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkin.md) - [Email Signup Automation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/justsignupme.md) - [Founder Marketing Networks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/startup-growth-syndicate.md)
