Automating standups using GPT4 and GitHub APIs

I run two fully remote businesses: a dev agency, and a Twitter SaaS. So I juggle client meetings, stand-ups, performance reviews, and fundraising. I tried to hire a VA to delegate some work, but the good ones were too expensive for me.

So I tried a different route. I made a bot that fetches Github commit history and uses GPT4 to generate a report. And it worked! The bot checks our Git commits and makes a daily report. Now we save 90% of the time we used to spend preparing for our daily and weekly meetings.

Here is the demo.

There are extra benefits too.

  1. No Misses: it catches all our work.
  2. Focus on Real Work: you see what you really get done.

The best part? Less stress. No more wondering what you did all day or what got fixed last week. The reports aren't perfect, but the bot runs by itself. For a small team like ours, that's a big deal.

I think this bot could replace standup apps like Geekbot. So I'm making it into a product. More Git features are coming, like tracking issues and pull requests.

If you want to try out the bot, let me know in the comments! (it's super beta)
