Giving work to other people

A task delegation app that asks for proof back.

Delegating is easy to start and hard to finish. You say the work, the other person says yes, and three days later you ask about it again. Task Bundals is built around that gap. You give the work in one line, the person sends proof from a link, and work that is not done climbs to a manager by itself.

One piece of delegated work

From “please do this” to approved.

Every delegated piece of work needs three things: a person, a time and a way to know it was done. Here is one piece of work moving through all of them at Northlight Studio, our example business.

The reminder ladder

Missed work climbs a ladder.

Nobody has to remember to chase. If the work is not done, a reminder for the person comes up for the manager to share, then the manager is told, then you are told. Most work needs only the first step: Kiran’s pitch deck got one reminder at 5:30 pm and came in at 5:54 pm.

Quiet hours. No reminder comes up between 10:00 pm and 7:00 am. You can change the hours.
Missed again and again. The same work missed twice in 7 days goes under “Needs you” for the owner.
Shared, not sent. The portal sends no message by itself. Each reminder has a share button, and the manager sends it from their own number.

What you give up, and what you keep

Delegate the work, not the check.

Handing work over does not mean losing sight of it. Three rules keep it in view without a single follow-up call.

You see what was understood. Before anything goes out, the person, the due time and the proof are shown back to you to correct.
Proof is part of the work. A photo, a file, a link or a number comes back on the same link. “Done” without it is not done.
A person approves. Fixed checks run first, then a manager says yes or sends it back with a note.
Work that repeats is given once. Set it to repeat and it is made again on its days.
What it is not

Not a to-do list for yourself.

If you want an app for your own reminders, this is the wrong product. Task Bundals is for an owner or a manager who gives work to other people and wants it back with proof. The people who receive the work never open the app.

Who you delegate to, and where it lands

A name going out. Proof coming in.

Two screens sit at the two ends of delegation: the list of people you can give work to, and the place where their proof waits for a decision.

Delegated work comes back here with its proof. Fixed checks run first, then a person approves it or sends it back with a note.

Questions about delegating

One line, the way you would say it: the person’s name, the work, the time, and the proof if you want one. Fixed rules pick those out and show them back. You correct anything that was read wrong, then give the work.
The manager shares it in a message from their own number. Staff install nothing and need no password: the link opens one page for that piece of work.
The reminder ladder runs. A reminder for the person comes up before the due time and again at the due time, and the manager shares it in one tap. Then the manager is told. Then the work is marked missed and the owner is told.
Yes. Set a piece of work to repeat and it is made again on its days.

Not yet. Sign-up is not open, and the Start free page says so. Until it opens you can read how it works and look at every app on the apps page, or write to info@bundals.com.
