The problem it solves

Keeping track of who's working on what means either holding a daily stand-up meeting or pinging each person for a status update. Without it, tasks fall through the cracks and nobody has a clear view of what's actually in progress.

Who it fits

Remote or distributed teams who want a lightweight async alternative to daily stand-up meetings.

How it works

  1. Runs on a schedule each weekday morning
  2. Pulls all currently in-progress tasks from your task tracker
  3. Groups them by team member and priority
  4. Formats a clean summary with direct links to each task
  5. Posts the summary to your team's Discord channel
What you get

Stand-ups your team never has to attend

Your team gets a clear daily rundown of what everyone is working on without holding a meeting.

What you get

A daily Discord message showing exactly what each team member is working on.

What you need

A YouTrack account and a Discord 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.
