Plug and AI is a Slack app that gives teams instant access to 300+ AI models directly inside Slack — no separate UI, no context switching.

The same ecosystem is available as a web chat at https://plai.chat. ## Key facts - **Models**: 300+ via OpenRouter (GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Llama, Mistral, and more).
