Unifying Service, Automation & Support Inside Slack & Teams

Foqal transforms Slack and Microsoft Teams into integrated service desks for IT, HR, customer service, and operational teams. For public sector organizations - such as municipalities, utilities, and government agencies—it solves the disconnect between communication platforms and enterprise ticketing systems like ServiceNow, Salesforce, Zendesk, and Jira.

The Public Sector Challenge
These platforms are essential for helpdesk and case management but operate outside the tools staff use daily. This separation slows response times, creates redundant work, and increases the risk of missed issues. Public sector teams need fast, compliant, and transparent service delivery without forcing employees to constantly switch between systems.

Foqal’s Seamless Solution
Foqal integrates directly with your existing systems, enabling real-time, bidirectional updates between Slack/Teams and platforms like Jira, ServiceNow, Salesforce, and Zendesk. A ticket update in one system appears instantly in the other, ensuring everyone works from the same information.

Core Capabilities

  • Conversational Ticketing: Create and manage requests directly in Slack or Teams.
  • Automated Workflows & Routing: Ensure the right team member gets the right request instantly.
  • Self-Service Automation: Password resets, MFA resets, onboarding, provisioning, and more.
  • Integration with 3rd-Party Tools: Okta, OneLogin, Confluence, Notion, PagerDuty, and HRIS platforms.
  • Custom Forms: Collect all necessary information upfront to reduce back-and-forth.

Use Cases in the Public Sector
