What can an AI teammate do with Todoist?

A Todoist AI teammate can read your tasks and projects, surface overdue or high-priority items, create new tasks from emails or meeting notes, update due dates and priorities, and mark tasks complete - all automatically on a schedule or triggered by other tools. Write actions require your approval.

Which projects can my AI teammate access?

Your teammate can access all projects visible to your connected Todoist account, including personal and shared projects. You can scope tasks to specific projects in your task instructions.

Will my teammate complete tasks without asking?

No. Completing or modifying tasks are write actions that require your approval in safe and plan permission modes. You can configure auto-approval for trusted recurring workflows.

How is a Todoist AI teammate different from Todoist automations?

Todoist automations handle simple rule-based triggers inside Todoist. An AI teammate reasons across tools: it reads your inbox, pull request activity, or calendar, then creates and prioritizes tasks in Todoist based on actual context - not just fixed conditions.
