Cool new product by my friend @tom_burger! His real name is Cedric btw 😎 Take it away Cedric!

Looks great! Well done Cédric & team. We've used Trello a lot on the past, which is good, but then again some in the team just don't like it. Then if we're working with external people who don't have an account or haven't used, it's annoying to get them set-up and indeed like you say - we just revert back to email and back & forth on slack, which is hard to keep a track of what's actually done and still to be done. Definitely solves a big and common problem, looking forward to trying it out.

I fooled with it. Seems fairly standard as a team task management tool. I like the concept of managing tasks through email, although the UX immediately went off the track when I assigned a task via email and I was all of a sudden 'inviting someone to join sendtask'. Except I thought I was just sending a task by email. The two use cases should be separated.

?makers I just tried to sign up and saw this message "Error sending confirmation email".

This is addressing the biggest pain point I encounter in all PM software, assigning tasks to external parties. Contractors do not want to create accounts and supplier firewalls prevent admin staff from creating user accounts . Looking forward to trying sendtask 😄 iOS and android apps, so tasks can be created and assigned on the fly, would make this perfect for construction companies with dispersed external user groups

Awesome product! :D

Is this similar to Basecamp?

Sendtask makes email productive again. Great concept and even better product. Well done guys!

Hi Product Hunt, I know what you’re thinking: «Why would someone build another collaborative Task app?» 🤔 After all, there’s already a few with millions of users. Here’s why: While we love ❤️ Asana, Trello and similar tools and used them in our team since forever, we noticed one thing: Whenever we worked with freelancers, service providers or other third parties, instead of sending them a task, we fell back into our old habits and sent them an email! Why? Because no one wants to go through the trouble of creating accounts and onboarding when you only work together for a few weeks or months. That’s why we decided to build Sendtask - it combines the power of collaborative task management with the ease of Email. Sendtask allows you to send tasks to anyone - as long as you know their email address. The recipient doesn’t need to create an account but can still do everything that he should be able to do with a task - discuss, add attachments, change the assignee and the due date, and of course - complete the task. Gone are the days where you need to onboard someone before you can start work efficiently with them! Since all you need to collaborate with someone is their email, we are able to build some really cool integrations. We believe that you should be able to create tasks whenever and wherever you already work - meaning that if you get a lot of your work done in your email client or Slack, that’s where you should be able to create tasks. Those two integrations are already live and there’s a lot more to come. Please test Sendtask and tell us what you think. We hope that it will make you and your team more successful ✨ and that you will never have to fall back to email when you’re getting stuff done with someone inside or outside your team! Very excited to be on PH! 🍿 Cédric & Team Sendtask PS: Our native apps (🤖 & 🍎) are on their way!

Perfect collaboration tool. I love it.

This seems very interesting, but free forever?

wasn't this on PH a few days ago? Odd.

This looks great! I work closely with professors to build online courses, and we've started adding professors as guests to Asana projects, but Asana seems to be a little much for some of them. They're very email-based and account-averse, so a task management system that meets them where they are and also allows us to keep track of tasks on our end is just fantastic. Looking forward to trying this out!

Hey all, here are few ways to make the most out of Sendtask: -Use the web app as a central hub to manage tasks. Create and assign tasks, set due dates, comment, add attachments and organize everything into specific projects. -Use the Slack integration to create and assign tasks, set due dates and see your to-do list. Everything is synced with the web app so you can track everything in one place. -Use email and Evernote's email feature to create and assign tasks, set due dates and comment. Again, everything is synced with the web app. We'll be happy to help with any questions along the way :)

Excited to see this. Solves a real pain point. Had several issues testing on iOS though. Unable to navigate to completed tasks nor add followers. Sorting for assignee/projects also did not work. Will try on desktop later.
