What are Projects?
Projects are living workspaces your worker maintains for ongoing work that can’t be finished in a single conversation. They give your worker a place to track goals, tasks, progress, and important context — so you can pick up exactly where you left off, every time. You might also hear them called Work Streams. Same idea: a dedicated thread of work your worker actively owns and advances over time.Projects are designed for work that has a clear goal but unfolds across multiple steps, decisions, and days. If a task takes five minutes, you don’t need a project for it.
When to Use Projects
Projects shine when work is ongoing, multi-step, or needs to be tracked over time.Good for Projects
- Recruiting a new hire (research, outreach, scheduling, follow-ups)
- Launching a new product feature (coordination across multiple tools and people)
- Onboarding a new client (weeks of tasks across email, docs, and calendar)
- Running a content calendar (planning, drafting, publishing, reviewing)
Not Needed for Projects
- One-off requests (“Summarize this document”)
- Quick lookups or simple questions
- Tasks fully completed in a single conversation
- Recurring automations handled by a skill
Core Components of a Project
Every project your worker maintains has four key parts:
Your worker keeps all of this updated automatically as work progresses. You don’t need to re-explain the situation every time — the project holds that context for you.
A Real Example: Hiring a Content Writer
Here’s how a project keeps work moving across multiple conversations. Monday — You ask your worker to find a freelance content writer.“Start a project to hire a content writer. We need someone with SaaS experience, €300–500 per article. Start by finding five candidates.”Your worker creates the project, defines the goal, and starts researching.
Wednesday — You check in.
“What’s the status on the content writer project?”Your worker gives you a summary: three candidates found, two more to research, outreach emails drafted and ready to send.
Friday — You continue.
“Send the outreach emails and add a task to follow up in five days.”Done. The project is updated with the new tasks and the follow-up is scheduled.
The following week — No re-explaining needed. Your worker already knows the goal, the candidates, what was sent, and what comes next.
How to Create a Project
You can create a project using the Project Creation Wizard in the Spinnable interface or conversationally in chat.Method 1: Three-Step Creation Wizard (Interface)
When creating a project from the Spinnable interface, a guided three-step wizard helps you structure your project team:1
Step 1: Title
Enter a project title and define the overall objective and scope for the work.
2
Step 2: Teammates
Select or invite human teammates who need access to collaborate on the project.
3
Step 3: AI Workers
Assign one or more AI workers to serve as the worker team responsible for executing project tasks.
Method 2: Conversational Creation
You can also start a project simply through conversation with your AI worker:1
Tell your worker what you're working toward
Describe the goal in plain language. You don’t need to plan every step upfront — your worker will help structure it.
“I want to start a project to onboard our new client, Acme Corp. The goal is to have them fully set up and active within four weeks.”
2
Your worker sets it up
They’ll create the project, confirm the goal, and either draft an initial task list or ask a few clarifying questions to get started.
3
Work it conversation by conversation
Each time you come back, just ask for a status update or give the next instruction. Your worker tracks everything between conversations.
4
Complete tasks as they're done
As your worker finishes tasks, they’ll mark them as Completed. You can also do this yourself: “Mark the contract task as done.”
Your Projects on the Board
Every project also has a visual home in the app. Open Projects from the sidebar to see everything your worker is running at a glance, then click into any project for the full picture.1
Browse all your projects
The Projects area lists every active project, each card showing the worker who owns it and where things stand.
2
Work the Kanban board
Inside a project, the Tasks tab is a board with To Do, In Progress, and Done columns. Drag any task card between columns to update its status — your worker sees the change right away.
3
Set the goal and rules
The Overview tab is where you edit the project’s goal and add working rules — standing guidance your worker follows every time it picks the project back up.
4
Keep resources in one place
Upload files as project resources so reference material lives with the work. Your worker can use them, and you can download or remove them anytime.
5
See the conversations behind the work
The Conversations tab links every chat connected to the project, so you can trace how the work has unfolded.
Project Membership, Invitations, & Activity
Projects are collaborative. You can bring your entire team into any project to coordinate, track progress, and assign work.Inviting Members and Assigning Roles
From the Members tab inside a project, you can manage your team roster:- Invite by Email: Click Invite Member and enter their email address to send a direct project invitation.
- Set Roles: Assign roles such as project Owner or Lead to establish clear lines of responsibility.
- Roster Management: View active members, check the status of pending invitations, or remove members from the project at any time.
The Live Activity Feed
To ensure everyone stays in sync, every project features a live Activity Feed that logs all changes in real time. It displays:- When a new member accepts their invitation and joins.
- Any updates made to the project’s goals or working rules in the Overview tab.
- When a task card is moved on the Kanban board (e.g., from To Do to Done) and who moved it.
Task Assignment & Multi-Worker Projects
With multi-member projects, you can distribute tasks among both your human colleagues and your AI workforce.Direct Task Assignment
Assign clear responsibilities to keep work moving:- Assignees: When creating or editing a task card on the board, use the assignee dropdown to assign it to any project member or assigned AI worker.
- Visual Accountability: Task cards on the Kanban board display the assignee’s avatar, making it easy to see who is responsible for each step at a glance.
Multi-Worker Projects & Chat Picker
For complex workflows, you can assign multiple specialized AI workers to a single project so they can work in parallel.- Parallel Work: Assign a researcher, a writer, and an editor worker to the same project to handle different stages of the goal.
- The Chat Picker: When a project has more than one active worker, a worker selector (chat picker) appears at the top of the Conversations tab. Simply select the worker you want to chat with from the dropdown to start or resume a focused conversation with them.
How Projects Stay Up to Date
Your worker actively maintains the project as work happens:- Tasks are added when new work is identified
- Tasks are updated when progress is made
- The summary is refreshed to reflect the current state
- Notes capture decisions so nothing important gets lost
Completed Tasks and Projects
When tasks are finished, they’re marked as Completed — they’re never deleted. This is intentional.Completed tasks and finished projects stay in your worker’s history. You can always look back to see what was done, when, and why. It’s your record of work — not a bin that gets emptied.
- Review what happened on a past project
- Refer back to decisions or context from earlier work
- Audit progress over time
- Reopen work if a project needs to restart
Viewing and Managing Projects
You can ask your worker about projects at any time:- “What projects are active right now?” — Get a list of everything in progress
- “Give me a status update on [project name]” — See the current summary, tasks, and notes
- “What tasks are still open in [project name]?” — Focus on what’s left to do
- “Show me completed projects” — Browse past work for reference
- “Add a task to [project name]” — Update the project mid-stream
- “Mark [task] as done” — Record progress
Projects vs Skills
Projects and skills are different tools for different kinds of work.
They can work together. A project might include a task that triggers a skill — for example, a client onboarding project where the “send welcome email” step uses a saved email skill.
