BoxHow do you summarize a long thread or document?
To summarize a long thread or document, mention Maito in the thread or share the file. It reads the whole conversation and any linked docs, then lists what was decided, what is still open and what is asked of you. It also flags points that sound settled but were questioned later.

Example
@Maito summarize this thread. I need to know what's asked of me.
86 messages, 3 days, plus the linked Notion spec. Decided • Ship Nov 18, not Nov 4 (Leo, message 41) • Launch to existing customers first Open • Price for the new tier: Dana says $42 a seat, Priya says $39 • Whether the migration guide is ready, owner unclear Asked of you • Approve the $18k launch budget. Omar needs it by Friday. • Choose the price. Catch: "ship Friday" sounds settled, but Alex posted later that the payments QA blocker is still open and Mia hasn't confirmed the fix. The date may not hold.
@Maito ask Mia whether the payments fix is verified and report back here.
Asked Mia in this thread. I'll post her answer here.

What it won't do
It can't read threads or channels it wasn't mentioned in. It summarizes what was written, so a decision made in a call isn't captured.
Questions
Only a Slack thread where someone has mentioned it. It can also read docs you share or in connected tools such as Notion, Confluence or Box.
Yes. It credits decisions and open points to the person and message where they came from.
Yes. Forward it to the workspace address and it replies with the summary.
