Reports & Productivity Insights

Two pages, both reached from the Insights section of the sidebar, help you step back from individual tasks and look at the shape of your work as a whole.

Both are marked beta

Expect rougher edges and occasional changes in what they surface.


Reports

URL: /insights/reports

A GTD-style weekly review, in two tabs.

Weekly Review:

  • Your current inbox count
  • Stalled projects — in-progress projects with no task activity in the last 14 days
  • Waiting for — projects marked Waiting, oldest first
  • Action debt — active projects that currently have no open tasks at all, so there's nothing next to do on them

Trends:

  • A bar chart of tasks completed per week over the last 8 weeks
  • An area-by-area balance chart comparing completed (last 30 days) versus currently open tasks

Use this page the way you'd use a GTD weekly review: work through stalled projects and action debt first, since those are the ones quietly going nowhere.


Productivity Assistant

URL: /insights/productivity

A lighter, always-on heuristic pass over your current tasks and projects, computed directly in your browser from what's already loaded — no separate data pull. It looks for:

  • Projects flagged as stalled
  • Projects with completed tasks but no open next action
  • Tasks whose names read like whole projects rather than a single action ("Plan the launch", "Set up the new server")
  • Tasks with vague or unclear names
  • Tasks and projects with no recent activity in over 30 days

Each item links straight to the task or project it's about.

This page is not the same as the Today page's suggestions

Despite similar names, this is a separate page from the "next task suggestion" feature on the Today page, and from the AI-powered Daily Brief and Insights. It runs the same lightweight heuristics regardless of your AI configuration.


  • AI Assistant - AI-generated daily briefs and task/project insights, a separate and optional feature
  • Areas - What "area balance" is measuring
  • Today Page - Day-to-day task metrics
