Request, approve, and track time off without leaving the conversation. Built for teams of 5 to 50 who've outgrown a spreadsheet but shouldn't have to buy an HR platform.
No accrual rules. No org charts. No seat pricing. Just the PTO basics done well.
Type /pto request, pick dates, submit. Your approver gets a DM with one-click Approve and Deny.
Opt in once and your Slack status updates to 🍃 for the full range of your approved PTO, then clears when you return.
Pick the countries your team works from. Public holidays are excluded automatically from everyone's PTO count.
Route requests to one named manager — or to anyone in a Slack channel. First click wins, great for rotating leadership.
Check your balance with one command, or open the Leavely home tab in Slack to see pending requests and holiday credits.
Admins download the full year's history with /pto export. Lands in your DMs as a clean CSV.
No onboarding calls. No training docs. Just Slack.
Click Add to Slack. Approve the scopes — we only ask for what we need to post approvals and read your user's admin status.
An admin runs /pto onboard — a 5-step wizard sets allowance, approver, holidays, and the announcement channel.
Anyone on the team runs /pto request, picks dates, submits. Done. Approver is DM'd. Team channel announces approvals.
Leavely is intentionally minimal. If any of these sound essential, we're not the right tool.
Flat allowance per year. Mid-year joiners get a one-line override. Designed for teams that don't legal-brief their vacation math.
One approver (or one channel). No manager chains, no escalations. If your PTO needs SVP sign-off, you've outgrown us — gracefully.
Uninstall Leavely and everything keyed to your workspace is deleted in under five minutes. Backups are purged in 30 days. Read the policy.
Free during beta. Install, try it, uninstall if it's not for you.
