Project Management
helio / project-planningGive it the goal and the rough scope. Your AI teammate breaks it into a task list with owners and milestones, then rolls up progress every morning and warns you before a milestone actually slips.
Break our v1 launch into a task breakdown with owners, dependencies, and milestones, working back from a ship date of the 15th. Put the board in Notion, then give me a daily standup rollup at 9am and warn me before any milestone slips. Ask me what you need before you start.
Swap in your goal, deadline, and where your task board lives.
What is Project Management?
A teammate that turns a goal and rough scope into a task breakdown with owners, dependencies, and estimated effort, then finds the critical path that actually sets the finish date. It rolls up real board status every morning and warns when a delay threatens a milestone, rather than reporting the slip after the date has passed.
What it does
Any chatbot lists tasks once. Helio runs it as a standing job — from your context, kept current, delivered to you.
| Owns the job, not just the plan | It checks each task's real board status and owns the milestone-risk call, not a one-time list. |
| Runs again without starting over | The standup rollup is saved and re-runs every morning at 9am against the live Notion board. |
| Works from your context | It reads your Notion task board and GitHub issues, so the plan reflects real dependencies. |
| Keeps itself current | When scope shifts or a task moves, it re-derives the timeline and critical path. You don't rebuild the plan. |
| Lands where you work | The daily rollup lands in the project channel and your Slack, Lark, or email. |
Three things it gets right
Finds the critical path
It identifies the tasks that actually determine the finish date, so the timeline reflects real dependencies.
Reads real board status
Progress comes from the connected Notion board's current state, so a task reads as done only when the board says so.
Warns before the slip
A delay threatening an upcoming milestone is flagged early, while there's still time to react.
What Project Management connects to.
Questions
- Do I need to already know how to build a WBS or a Gantt chart?
- No — give it the goal and rough scope, and it breaks the project into tasks, estimates effort, and builds the timeline itself. You don't need to know the methodology.
- How does it know real progress instead of the last thing someone claimed?
- It checks the connected task board's actual status at report time rather than repeating whatever was last said — a task marked in progress is treated as in progress, not assumed done.
- Will it warn me before a deadline is missed, or just report that it was?
- Milestone-risk warning is a separate check — when a task's delay threatens an upcoming milestone, it flags that early, so there's still time to react before the date actually passes.
- Can different people see different views of the same project?
- Yes — the underlying task board is shared, but the daily rollup can be scoped to what's relevant for each recipient.
Stop chasing status by hand.
Give Helio the goal — it breaks it into tasks and milestones, then rolls up progress every morning.
