Proactive AI

Proactive AI tells you what needs attention before you go looking for it. It watches your projects for overdue, due-soon, stale and unowned work, tracks how your active sprints are doing, and turns all of that into a short daily briefing written in plain English.

Plan: Pro and above

What you can do

  • See a live snapshot of what needs attention across every project you're a member of.
  • Read a short AI briefing — two to four sentences telling you what to act on today.
  • Generate a briefing on demand, or let the scheduled daily one be waiting for you.
  • Open any flagged work item with one click.
  • Look back at past briefings to see how the week has gone.

Getting started

  1. In the workspace sidebar, open Command Center.
  2. Stay on the Pulse tab — that's Proactive AI.
  3. Click Generate briefing to produce one immediately, or just read the daily briefing that's already there.

The signals it watches

Everything on this page is derived from your real records — nothing is guessed.

CardWhat lands in it
OverduePast its target date and not finished. Sorted by how late it is, then by priority.
Due soonTarget date within the next 3 days and not finished.
StaleAssigned to someone, not finished, and untouched for 7 days or more.
Unassigned (in progress)Sitting in an in-progress state with nobody on it.

Above the cards, three pills show momentum: how many items completed in the last 24h, how many were opened in the last 24h, and how many active sprints you have.

Below them, Sprint health lists every cycle that is running right now — completed vs total, percentage done, and days left, with a bar that turns amber and then red as a sprint falls behind.

Each card shows the first five items, with View all to expand. Click any row to open that work item.

The briefing

The briefing is a short piece of prose, not a dashboard. It leads with the single most important thing to act on today, names specific items by reference, and mentions what got finished if there's momentum to report. If there's genuinely nothing to flag, it says so.

Two ways it appears:

  • Daily, automatically. A background scheduler generates one briefing per person per day, so it's usually already waiting when you open the page. Auto-generated briefings are marked Auto.
  • On demand. Click Generate briefing any time. This also refreshes the snapshot below it.

Older briefings collapse into a Past briefings list you can expand.

Tips

  • Use the counts, not just the lists. The number on each card is the true total; the list underneath shows the top items.
  • Empty cards are the goal. "Nothing overdue" and "Every in-progress item has an owner" are the states you want to see.
  • Unassigned in-progress work is usually the fastest fix — someone is probably doing it, they just haven't put their name on it.
  • Stale doesn't mean abandoned, but a week of silence on assigned work is worth a comment.

Limits & good to know

  • It never changes anything. Proactive AI only reads. It won't reassign, reschedule or nudge people for you.
  • It's personal. You see signals for the projects you are a member of — not the whole workspace. Two people on the same workspace get different briefings.
  • The thresholds are fixed. "Due soon" means within 3 days; "stale" means 7 days untouched. These aren't configurable per user.
  • Detail lists are capped at the top 100 items per category. If a count is higher than the list, the page tells you how many aren't shown.
  • Drafts and archived items are ignored, as are cancelled and completed items.
  • Sprint health only covers cycles running today — ones with a start and end date that bracket today, and that actually contain work items.
  • One scheduled briefing per person per day. Generating one manually doesn't stop tomorrow's.
  • Without an AI provider configured, the page still works: the briefing falls back to a plain, generated-from-the-numbers summary rather than AI prose.
