The problem it solves

You finish tasks in Todoist all day, but there is no simple record of what got done and when. Building that history by hand is tedious enough that most people never bother.

Who it fits

A freelancer, consultant, or small team that wants an automatic log of completed work.

How it works

  1. Triggers the moment a task is marked complete in Todoist
  2. Captures the task details and the date and time it was completed
  3. Adds a new row to Google Sheets with that information
What you get

Completed work you never had to log yourself

Every task you finish in Todoist gets recorded with a timestamp in your spreadsheet automatically.

What you get

A running log in Google Sheets of every completed task and when it was finished.

What you need

A Todoist account and a Google Sheets 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.
