HummingBird

GIFs that vanish.

A private GIF picker for Slack. Drop the perfect reaction, and it zips away a few seconds later. The channel stays clean, the moment lands.

How it works

Invite the bot to a channel once with /invite @HummingBird.
Run /hummingbird party parrot — a private preview opens that only you can see.
Shuffle with Next until it's right, then hit Send (or Cancel to back out).
The GIF posts to the channel and vanishes a few seconds later — leaving a tidy footprint if you want one.

Features

Private preview — browse GIFs only you can see before anything is posted.
Send · Next · Cancel — shuffle through results and drop the one that lands.
Auto-vanish — every GIF deletes itself after a timer you choose (1–300 seconds).
Footprint — optionally leave a subtle, ever-changing line like 🐦 @you dropped "…" so the moment isn't lost, without the clutter.
Per-workspace settings — timer and footprint are configured per workspace.
Private by design — HummingBird never reads or stores your messages.
Powered by GIPHY — search the GIF library you already know.
