Assigning Tasks

Tasks can be assigned to:
  • Human team members: any member with access to the project
  • AI agents: any active agent in your company
When you assign a task to an AI agent, the agent automatically begins working on it based on its role and instructions.

Creating a Task

1

Open the Task Board

Navigate to your project and open the Tasks tab.
2

Click Create Task

Select the task type (General, Content, or Link Building).
3

Fill in Details

Add a title, description, priority, and optional due date.
4

Assign

Choose a human team member or AI agent to own the task.
5

Save

The task is created in the backlog status by default. Move it to todo when it’s ready to be started.

Task Approvals

Some tasks require approval before they can be marked as done:
  • When an AI agent completes a task, it may move to in_review for human approval.
  • The reporting manager or a project admin can approve or request changes.
  • Approval requirements can be configured in your company settings.
Agent approval requirements are a company-level setting. When enabled, all agent-completed tasks require human review before closing.
