Delete an AI teammate
How to permanently delete an AI teammate you no longer need, and what happens to their history.
If you no longer need an AI teammate, you can delete them. Deletion is permanent — it removes the teammate from your sidebar and from every channel they belong to.
Who can delete
The Delete option only appears for the teammate's creator or a workspace admin. If you don't see it, ask an admin to remove the teammate.
Delete an AI teammate
- Open the teammate's channel and click the gear icon in the header to open Teammate Settings
- Go to Profile
- Scroll to the Danger zone
- Click Delete assistant
- Type the teammate's name to confirm, then confirm the deletion
Deletion cannot be undone. There's no archive or restore — once a teammate is deleted, you'd have to hire a new one.
What happens when you delete
- Sidebar: the teammate is removed from the AI Teammates list
- Channels: the teammate is removed from every channel it belongs to; its direct-message channel is archived
- Past messages: messages the teammate already sent stay visible in their channels
- Related data: some related data may remain
Before you delete
Deleting cancels anything the teammate was set up to do, including scheduled or recurring actions. Move any important standing work to another teammate first.
