No Slop Mode: Sayya asks before she writes

Before Sayya, Hive's assistant, drafts a client email or document, she asks for your view on what only you know. A 20-second look at No Slop Mode.

No Slop Mode is a setting in Hive that has Sayya ask for your view before she writes a client email or document, marks whether each paragraph came from you, from Hive's own data or from Sayya, and holds the draft until you have reviewed it.

Why does AI-written email read like nobody wrote it?

Most people assume the problem with AI-written email is the writing. It usually isn't. The problem is that the judgment in it isn't yours, which is why so much of it reads as if nobody in particular wrote it, and the person reading it ends up doing the thinking the writer skipped.

What does Sayya ask before she writes?

Only what she can't find herself: the facts Hive doesn't have, and the calls only you can make, such as where you stand and what you are willing to commit to. What your company brain already knows, she looks up rather than asks.

How do you know which parts you wrote?

Each paragraph of the draft shows where it came from: you, Hive's own data, or Sayya. Nothing can be copied or sent until you have reviewed it, accepting, editing or cutting each part you didn't write, and adding a one-line summary of your own.

Who can turn on No Slop Mode?

Admins turn it on per role in Hive's Product Settings. It is meant for the writing where your judgment matters most: client emails, documents and strategy.

The person reading your email deserves to hear from you, not from a model's best guess at you.
