What are summaries in Task Manager?
A summary is a condensed version of a long thread, conversation or correspondence prepared by the AI Assistant. Instead of scrolling through forty messages with quotes nested inside quotes, you get a few points explaining what was agreed, who is responsible for what and which due dates were set.
How does it work?
- 01
Open a task, chat or mail thread.
- 02
Select the summary option - the Assistant reads the entire thread and lists the key points.
- 03
You can ask for a shorter or longer version, or ask it to focus on decisions.
- 04
Paste the summary into a task description or save it as a note.
What do you gain?
Get up to speed quickly: a new team member can catch up on the thread in a minute.
Clear agreements: decisions are stated explicitly rather than hidden in the middle of an email.
Material for documentation: save the summary as a project note.
An everyday example
You return to a project after two weeks of leave to find eighty messages. A summary in a few points shows what has changed and what is waiting for your decision.
