CASE STUDY / WORKAST

A collaborative task management tool

Workast is a task management tool for Slack that allows teams to create and assign tasks easily and set due dates without leaving the chat interface. With Workast, Slack channels and conversations are turned into to-do lists, so teams don’t have to waste time setting up projects or boards.

01 / THE CHALLENGE

What they needed.

After the success of their Slack-based bot, Workast was looking to create a stand-alone web application from scratch.

Over 60.000 teams have installed Workast bot on Slack and users have asked to be able to manage their tasks using a GUI.

We designed and developed an MVP that included key features like user settings, task details, to-do lists, and a dashboard.

We developed the web app using Angular and Node. The new iteration of the product mainly focused on helping users quickly see their tasks and manage workloads from one place.

Workast has over 150,000 app installations and more than 44K active users.

02 / RESULTS

Where it ended up.

The response to the web application has been really positive and users are loving the ease of use, as they are now able to mark a task done with a click of a button and easily add comments and tasks. The dashboard has provided users with a place to see all of their tasks in an easier way, and users can manage their workload all from one place.
