Someone would say:
Can you update the landing page and check the API later?
And a few hours later… it’s gone in the noise of the conversation.
So I built a small tool to solve this.
What it does
TaskExtraction takes Telegram messages and:
- detects actionable tasks
- extracts them from natural conversation
- converts them into structured items
- organizes them into a Kanban-style workflow
Instead of scrolling chats trying to remember what needs to be done, you get a clear task board.
Why I built it
I didn’t want another project management tool.
I just wanted:
- less context switching
- no manual copying of tasks
- something that works directly from where conversations already happen (Telegram)
Current state
This is still an MVP.
Right now I’m testing:
- how well task extraction works on real conversations
- edge cases (unclear messages, multi-task sentences)
- different workflow formats for output
What I’m looking for
Would love feedback from anyone who:
- manages tasks inside chats
- uses Telegram for work or side projects
- has tried automating task capture before
What would make this actually useful for you?
