Your AI assistant runs your routine work, on your own computer.
TaskFollow turns the AI assistant on your computer into one that runs your routine work on a schedule, and asks you before anything that matters.
Free. No sign-up. Works with Skills Wiki.
Routine work, done on a schedule, with you in charge
Sets itself up by talking with you
Setup is a conversation with you, not a settings screen to fill in.
Finds work you repeat
It proposes workflows for things like inbox triage, new leads, CRM notes, invoices and meeting follow-ups.
Runs on a schedule
It runs your workflows on a schedule, so you don't start each run yourself.
Reports where you are
Results arrive in your chat, Telegram, email or Slack.
Asks first
Money, legal matters, messages to customers and deletes always wait for your yes.
Explains every run
The taskfollow why command explains what each run did.
Why it runs on your own computer
Your data stays with you
TaskFollow runs on your own computer. Nobody else hosts it or sees your data.
Your own assistant and subscription
It works through the assistant you already use, on the plan you already pay for.
Approvals the assistant can't bypass
Telling an assistant "always ask me first" is a request, not a guarantee. TaskFollow's approvals happen in your own terminal or channel, and the assistant cannot approve for itself.
