Your work apps united. Needle brings together all your tools in one smart chat, helping you find info, share data, and get things done faster. No more app-hopping, just seamless work across everything you use. Leverage Needle with Zapier, n8n, and Langflow.
Today, we're introducing the next evolution of Needle. A thoughtful solution to a problem we've all experienced: the disconnect between our knowledge and our tools.
While searching across apps is valuable, we realized something important was missing... the ability to act on what you find. With Needle Knowledge Threader, we've built a bridge between discovery and action.
In a workspace fragmented across Google Drive, Slack, Notion, and Jira, Needle now provides a unified command center. Our new write capabilities allow you to not just find information, but to update, transform, and direct it precisely where it needs to go; All from a single conversation.
What makes Needle Knowledge Threader different:
🔄 Two-way connection: Needle doesn't just read from your apps. It can write back to them, creating a complete information loop.
🧠 Chat-powered automation: Build and execute mini-automations directly in your chat interface. No complex setup required. Just describe what you need, and Needle handles the rest.
💡 Agentic workflows: Initiate sophisticated multi-step processes across your tools with simple conversational commands. Needle works autonomously to complete tasks that would normally require multiple manual steps.
We built this because we needed it ourselves. A quiet but powerful tool that reduces the friction between knowledge and action. No more context switching, just seamless work that adapts to how you communicate naturally.
We're grateful for the opportunity to share Needle with the Product Hunt community and look forward to your thoughts on how we can make it even better.
Needle makes my work so much more efficient and leaves time for the stuff that really matters! Thanks guys
Although various similar tools currently fall short of delivering on their initial promises, I sincerely hope that you can improve the situation incrementally.
This sounds like a much-needed fix for the chaos of juggling multiple apps. Finding information is one thing, but being able to act instantly? That's a huge leap forward. The two-way connection sounds incredibly useful. How does needle handle permissions when writing back to different tools? Can users fine tune what it can update and where?
Absolutely love it! Such an outstanding product—excited to see how it continues to evolve. Keep up the amazing work, team! 🚀👏
Wow technologies rule!! Congratulations and keep it up!! Love your demo video, very clear
Congratulations on the launch of Needle Knowledge Threader! The seamless integration of work apps into one smart chat is a game-changer for productivity. Excited to see its impact!
Cool one! Can I build mini automations with this between Gmail and Notion?
I would like to tell you want I think, and I'm perhaps misunderstanding, but I thought I was given access to Needle for free so I could test it out. It seems that 'free' is for 7 days, and I can't test anything out, not even adding Gmail without giving over my credit card details? Hopefully, this is wrong, let me know.
Amazing work with Needle Knowledge Threader! The ability to seamlessly write back to apps and automate tasks within chat is a total game-changer for productivity.
Let's go Jan, saw this on LinkedIn & it really caught my eye - Loving what you're doing w/ Needle :))
I be using Zapier all the time but this is the sort of integration I need to actually accomplish what I'm setting out to do!
Best of luck to you & the team!!
Love the concept behind Needle Knowledge Threader! The ability to automate multi-step tasks directly in chat is amazing. How customizable are the mini-automations for different workflows?
Needle Knowledge Threader seems like a great solution for tackling the friction between finding info and acting on it—no more jumping between apps! The ability to update and transform data directly within your tools is a huge time-saver. How customizable are the workflows for different teams, and can it integrate with less common tools besides the big names like Google Drive and Slack?
