Auto-Task: your digital task assistant

Say goodbye to forgotten to-dos. We're unveiling an early preview of Auto-Task — a groundbreaking feature that transforms how you manage your daily responsibilities. The system automatically identifies tasks throughout your workflow and lets you seamlessly triage them to Linear, Notion, and Google Calendar.
