Task AI Agent

Task AI Agent turns requests from chat and email into tasks with an owner and a due date, then follows up until the work is done. Your teams spend less time chasing and finish more on time, while managers keep the final say on priorities, spending and approvals.

What your operations team gets back

01

No request lost in a chat or inbox

Requests sent in chat or by email become tasks with an owner, a due date and the details that came with them, without anyone copying them by hand.

02

Work goes to people who have time

Your project system, staff directory and shift calendar are checked for every task, so nobody gets work while on holiday or already fully booked.

03

Nobody has to chase

Reminders go out on time, overdue work is followed up and approvals are requested, so team leads only step in when it matters.

04

Progress without asking

Each team and project gets a short update on the day and in the channel you choose, so managers see what is late before customers do.

What it looks like in practice

An operations manager asks for one thing. The agent builds the task list from last year’s opening, assigns each task using the staff directory and sends the items that need budget approval to the manager. The manager approves them.

Task AI Agent: questions from business leaders

How quickly will we see results?

Your team sees requests turned into tasks within the first weeks. Most companies see less time spent chasing, and more work finished on time, during the first month after going live.

What does it cost?

It depends on how many requests your teams handle, the systems it connects to and where it runs. After a first conversation you get a written proposal with the price, so you can compare it with what the work costs you today.

Will it replace our coordinators or team leads?

It takes over the copying, assigning and chasing, so coordinators and team leads spend their time on planning and on the work that needs a decision. People stay in charge of priorities and exceptions.

What if it gives a task to the wrong person?

It assigns only by the skills, workload and holidays in your own systems, and anything it is unsure about waits for a person to confirm. Every task can be reassigned with one click, and every action is recorded.

Can we control what it does?

Yes. You decide which requests become tasks on their own, how many hours it may assign, how often it sends reminders and what always needs an approver. It never approves money or new suppliers, and you can pause it at any time.

Is our staff and project data safe?

It can run on your own servers, together with its AI models, so staff records, work orders and project data stay inside your company, no outside AI service is used and we have no access to them.

Do our teams have to change their task tools?

No. It works with Jira, Asana, Trello, ClickUp, Linear and Airtable, plus your own project system. One team can use Jira and another Asana, and the agent keeps both up to date.

Does it decide priorities?

It suggests them based on your rules and deadlines. Managers can change anything, and the agent follows their decision.

What do you need from our team?

One person who knows how work is handed out today, access to test versions of your task tools and staff directory, and a few hours a week from the team while we test.

Can we start small?

Yes. Most companies start with one team or one shared mailbox, see the results, and then extend the agent to other teams and sites.

Tell us where requests reach your teams, how work is handed out today and where it gets stuck. You get a written proposal with the expected results, the setup, a timeline and a price.
