awork
· #337 most-usedProject management that runs itself
awork is a project management and team collaboration platform built for agencies, consultancies, and service teams — tracking tasks, time, and capacity in one place. Connect it to Actionist and your agents create tasks the moment work arrives, log time automatically, route assignments by workload, and surface blockers before they become misses.
Eliminates manual work. Agents automate the inbox-to-project loop in awork — intake that used to require hand-crafting tasks, routing assignments, and chasing time logs now happens without anyone opening the awork UI.
What your awork agent runs on autopilot
A week of scheduled jobs your Actionist agent will execute on your behalf.
awork × every other app you use
End-to-end automations that span multiple apps — each one a real business outcome.
Support email → awork task → Slack alert
When a client emails about a project issue, the agent reads the thread, creates a scoped awork task in the client project with full context already filled in, then posts a Slack alert to the support lead with the task link and a one-line summary. The client gets a receipt email within 90 seconds. Your team stops triaging manually and starts resolving immediately.
Time saved for your team — every week, on autopilot
