Add a task
Fill in details
- Title — short description (“Follow up with Alex on kitchen quote”)
- Description — optional longer notes, links, context
- Due at — date + time the task should fire a reminder
- Assigned to — yourself by default; can be a teammate
- Linked contact — optional (search to associate with a contact)
Where tasks come from
Three sources:Manual
You typed them. Most common.Auto-escalated from AI
When the AI escalates a form submission or conversation it can’t handle, it creates a task assigned to whichever teammate you configured as the escalation assignee on that form. The task contains the AI’s reasoning + a link to the original submission/conversation.Workflow recipes
Workflow recipes (see Workflows) can create tasks automatically — e.g., “after every booked appointment, create a task to send a 1-day-before reminder.”Reminders
When a task’sdue_at time arrives, the assignee gets:
- An email reminder with the task title, description, and a link to open it
- An in-app notification in the bell
Snoozing / rescheduling
Open a task and edit thedue_at. Past-due tasks can be re-scheduled for later. Reminders re-fire at the new time.
Marking done
Click the checkbox on a task row, or open the task and click Mark complete. Done tasks move to a separate “Done” section in your list, capped at the most-recent 50 (older completed tasks are still in the database, just not shown).Search and filter
The Tasks page supports:- Filter by status (open / done / overdue)
- Filter by assignee (everyone, just me, just X)
- Filter by linked contact
Recurring tasks
Not currently supported as a first-class feature. Workaround: create a workflow recipe that creates a recurring task on a cadence, OR use a calendar app for repeating tasks and link from there. A native “every 30 days” task option is on the roadmap.Delete a task
A delete confirmation appears (no typed-DELETE for low-stakes operations). Tasks are soft-deleted for 30 days; after that they’re permanently purged.Next
Workflows
Automation recipes that create tasks, send messages, or move deals.

Pre-built workflow templates for common service-business needs.
