The problem it solves

Setting up a new folder every time you start a project or onboard a client is a small task, but it adds up and it's easy to forget. Files end up scattered or saved in the wrong place because there was no folder ready for them yet.

Who it fits

Small businesses and teams using Nextcloud who need a consistent folder structure for projects or clients.

How it works

  1. The automation is triggered when a new project or client is ready to start
  2. It creates a matching folder in your Nextcloud storage
  3. The folder is ready to receive files right away
What you get

New project folders ready before you look

Every new project or client automatically gets its own Nextcloud folder, ready the moment files start coming in.

What you get

A new, correctly named folder in Nextcloud.

What you need

A Nextcloud account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
