The problem it solves

Typing out a task while you're out and about, or right after a call, is easy to skip and even easier to forget. A quick voice note is faster to send, but it doesn't do you any good if it just sits there unactioned.

Who it fits

Busy professionals and small teams who want to capture tasks by voice instead of typing them out.

How it works

  1. You send a voice note to your WhatsApp number
  2. The audio is downloaded and transcribed
  3. AI pulls out the task name, priority, and due date from what you said
  4. Natural phrases like next Friday are converted into an exact date
  5. A new task is created in Notion, and you get a confirmation back on WhatsApp
What you get

Tasks captured the moment you speak

You get a Notion task with the right name, due date, and priority created automatically the moment you send a voice note.

What you get

A new Notion task with the name, due date, and priority filled in, plus a WhatsApp confirmation.

What you need

A WhatsApp Business account, an OpenAI API key, and a Notion 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.
