Turn email and chat requests into project work withone click.

What sets Project Insight's email and messaging integrations apart?

Many work management tools can create a task from an email or chat message. Project Insight brings Outlook, Gmail, Slack, and Teams into one project intake workflow, creates either a task or an issue, keeps the source context with the work, and connects every request to project and portfolio reporting.

• One intake path for email and chat: Move requests from Outlook, Gmail, Slack, and Teams into the same project system.
• Create the right kind of work: Turn a conversation into a project task, issue, or follow-up instead of forcing every request into a generic item.
• Keep the original context: Carry the message, sender, subject, attachments, images, and source link into Project Insight where supported.
• Place work in the plan immediately: Select the project, assignee, due date, priority, template, and custom fields during intake.
• Track requests beyond the inbox: Prioritize, schedule, manage, and report on communication-driven work with the rest of the project portfolio.
