Hoop: The AI-Powered Task Manager
Hoop captures, manages, and updates tasks from email, Slack and meetings creating a central spot for everything you have to do.
What is Hoop: The AI-Powered Task Manager?
Hoop is a task management tool that pulls tasks from the places where work actually happens: email, Slack, and meetings. Instead of manually creating tasks across multiple tools, Hoop automatically captures action items and centralises them in one place. This saves time on administrative overhead and reduces the chance that important tasks slip through the cracks. The tool is designed for professionals and teams who spend their day across multiple communication channels and want a single source of truth for their to-do list. It works best for people who struggle with task scattered across inboxes and chat platforms.
