Why projects get lost between email and task tools

Work arrives as email

Requests, approvals and files come in by email, then get copied into a task tool by hand, or not at all.

Two places to check

The task says one thing, the latest email says another, and the team has to reconcile them.

Nobody sees the whole project

Each person’s part of the project sits in their own inbox.

Sortd AI · Smart Status
