Fomi vs Relay.app: Slack agent vs AI workflows
Relay.app creates AI-step workflows across apps. Fomi executes CRM and calendar actions directly from Slack in natural language.
Quick answer
Relay.app is a workflow platform with AI steps across tools — powerful but requires designing flows. Fomi lives in Slack and understands natural language: "@Fomi move Acme to Proposal and schedule follow-up". Choose Fomi for teams that don't want to maintain workflows; Relay for complex visual orchestration.
