AI feature availability by plan and feature access

Which Slack AI features each plan includes (and what legacy plans without the AI add-on keep), how owners and admins grant or block each feature under Feature access > AI, who controls future AI releases, and the huddle notes and translation behaviours the exam tests.

Official exam objective
Given a scenario, determine how to implement Slack AI.

~8 min read · 9 practice questions ·

What the exam expects

  • Decide whether a requested AI feature is on the customer's plan, or whether the answer is an upgrade, given Pro, Business+, Enterprise+ or a legacy plan without the Slack AI add-on.
  • Grant or block each AI feature under Feature access > AI, knowing that Pro and Business+ choose Everyone or No one while an Enterprise org can target specific people and groups.
  • Block generative AI completely, including features Slack releases later, and name the only roles that control future releases.
  • Explain huddle notes limits (no guests or external people, the automatic notes channel setting) and who sees a translation.

Key terms:

  • Feature access > AI: the admin page listing each AI feature with an Edit control for who can use it.
  • Future AI feature releases: the setting (Always allow access to new AI features) that decides whether newly released AI features turn on automatically.
  • Slack AI add-on: the paid add-on no longer sold; buyers keep its features until their first renewal after August 17, 2025.
  • Legacy plan: the older Business+ or Enterprise Grid plan, which without the add-on gets only the Pro AI features.
