Everything a task needsTask List

My tasks

Everything assigned to you across every project, sorted by due date and priority.

Subtasks

Break work down without losing the parent. Progress rolls up automatically.

Dependencies

Mark a task as waiting on another, inside or outside your team. Blockers surface in the brief.

Due date warnings

Amber two days ahead, red when late. Due soon tasks rise to the top.

Files and comments

Designs, specs and review notes on the task, with @mentions that notify the right person.

Quiet notifications

Choose what pings you. Everything else waits for tomorrow’s brief.

How it worksFour steps

Capture

Add tasks from the list, from Slack or from an email forward.

Break down

Split big work into subtasks with their own owners.

Link

Connect dependencies so blockers are obvious.

Close

Tick it off. The brief credits it tomorrow morning.

Recurring tasks handle the routine: monthly reports, weekly backups, retainer check-ins. They appear on schedule with the last run’s notes attached.
