{"id":64233,"title":"Axolo 🐙  GitHub-Slack two-way synchronization","tagline":"Enable your team to merge pull requests faster","body":"**Problem?** GitHub pull request workflow is unproductive\n\n1. Time to review: Dangling pull requests are waste of time and a source of frustration for developers. They cause the code development process to slow down and prevent developers from focusing on a new task ahead.  Engineers need to write DM + @channels to get the attention their work needs.\n2. Context switching: Between GitHub, Slack, video calls, and their product management software, engineers are piling up their mental load with so many tools and notifications.\n3. Documentation: Pull requests are being talked about in DM and private calls. There is no documentation, and it’s hard to know why a decision was made.\n\n\\\n**Solution?** Axolo centralizes pull requests in contextual Slack channels\n\n1. 1 PR = 1 Slack channel. Only invites reviewers and creators.\n2. Get personalized and friendly reminders about stale pull requests.\n3. The conversation is saved on GitHub.\n4. The Slack channel is auto-archive when the PR is merged and you can also auto-leave PR channels after approval.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=64233\u0026key=user_uploads/549618/bcd6df74-f0de-4e66-86d9-d8f1e5ac0186)\n\n\n**🗣 What customers say about Axolo:** \n\nManuel: \"The tool we needed for the daily work\"\n\nRushil: “Big fan of Axolo.
