Tasks are created by talking to your assistant — in Console chat, over
text, on a call, wherever. There’s no form to fill in. Say what you want
done, when (or on what event), and how you’d like to hear back; your
assistant sets it up with sensible defaults for anything you didn’t specify,
asking a short question only when something essential is missing.
You: Every Monday morning, pull the open Jira tickets, sort by
priority, and email me the top ten.
Assistant: Done — scheduled for Mondays at 8am. You’ll get the email at
your usual address, and the task is listed in the Tasks tab.
Schedules
Say times the way you naturally would — your assistant turns them into a
proper schedule:
- One-off — “tomorrow at 9”, “in two hours”, “on the 30th”.
- Recurring — “every morning at 8”, “every 30 minutes”, “Mondays and
Wednesdays at noon”, “the first of each month”.
- With an end — “every day until the launch”, “for the next four weeks”.
Times use your assistant’s timezone unless you say otherwise (“8am UK
time”). If a request is genuinely ambiguous, it asks rather than guessing.
Triggers
Triggered tasks fire on incoming events — a message or email arriving on
any connected channel. You can scope them precisely:
- By channel — “when I get an email…”, “when someone messages me on
Slack…”, “when a WhatsApp comes in…”
- By sender — “when Alice emails about invoices…”, or the reverse:
“ignore anything from the newsletter address”.
- Once or every time — a trigger can fire once and retire, or re-arm
after each run and keep watching.
Test it
You don’t have to wait for a real event to know a trigger works. Armed
triggered tasks have a Test it control in the Console that fires the task
immediately so you can watch it run — and the trigger stays armed for the
real thing afterwards.
Changing and removing tasks
Managing tasks works the same way as creating them — just tell your
assistant:
- “Move the morning rundown to 7:30.”
- “Skip the weekly recap this Friday.”
- “Cancel the inbox-check task.”
The Tasks tab is where you see everything; chat is where you change
everything.
During onboarding
The onboarding checklist walks you through both kinds: Create a scheduled
task and Create a triggerable task. Each row starts a short
back-and-forth with your assistant, and the example chips beneath them — like
“In two minutes, check my inbox and text me anything urgent” — set up that
exact task with one click. The scheduled step even shows a countdown until
your assistant reaches out, so you see the whole loop close in real time.
A great first task mirrors something you already do manually every day or
week. If you’d normally check it, chase it, or compile it — describe that
to your assistant once, and take it off your plate.
