Trello, worked by an AI employee

Not another app for your team to learn, and not a set of rules for you to build. You hire an AI employee, you give it access to your Trello account, and you ask it for things in Slack or Teams the way you would ask anyone else on the team. There is nothing to map and nothing to maintain.

What Trello is

A web-based, kanban-style, list-making application.

You sign in with your own Trello account, the same way you already do. We never see or hold your password.

It can also be told by Trello when something happens, rather than only doing things when you ask.

How a run works

One message in, the work done in Trello.

  1. 01

    You ask

    You message your AI employee in the chat your team already has open, in one sentence, in your own words.

  2. 02

    It works out the step

    It decides what the job needs in Trello. You do not pick anything from a menu or wire anything together.

  3. 03

    It does the work

    Signed in to your own Trello account, inside the access you granted it, doing the thing you asked for.

  4. 04

    It reports back

    It tells you what it did, in the same thread. If it could not do something, it says so rather than guessing.

88 tools it already has

What it can do in Trello

43 things it can watch for

What Trello can tell it about

It does not only wait to be asked. These are the things Trello can tell your AI employee about the moment they happen, so it can act without anyone noticing first.

  • Attachment Added To CardA file or link is attached to a card.
  • Attachment Removed From CardAn attachment is removed from a card. Trello drops the attachment's URL from this event.
  • Board Added To WorkspaceA board enters the watched Workspace — the Trello equivalent of a new project starting. Covers both a board created inside the Workspace and an existing board moved i
  • Board Label CreatedA label is added to the board's label set. Applying an existing label to a card is TRELLOLABELADDEDTOCARD.

  • Card CopiedA card is duplicated onto the watched board. The copy is the card in the payload; sourcecard is the one it came from.
  • Card CreatedA new card is typed onto the watched board. A card that arrives by being copied, converted from a checklist item, or moved in from another board has its own trigger.
  • Card Created From Checklist ItemA checklist item is promoted into a card of its own — a sub-task becoming tracked work.
  • Card DeletedA card is permanently deleted from the watched board. Trello drops the card's title from this event, so only its ids are available.
  • Card Moved Between ListsA card moves from one list to another on the watched board — the hook for stage-change automations such as 'when a card reaches Done, close the linked issue'. Moving
  • Card Moved In From Another BoardA card is moved onto the watched board from a different one — a triage board handing work to a sprint board, say.
  • Card Moved Out To Another BoardA card leaves the watched board for a different one.

The jobs Sanaf takes in it, and what it does

These are the jobs Sanaf would hold, signed in to your Trello account.

  • AI Project Manager

    Sanaf, on this job

    • Moves cards along and chases what has stalled
    • Sends the status update nobody has time to write
Things you could ask, as written

You do not learn a new screen. You type this in Slack or Teams.

  • @Sanaf what has not moved in four days?

  • @Sanaf send the client a status update on the Kirkby job.

  • @Sanaf which dates are no longer realistic?

Access, and who is in charge of it

You stay the boss of your Trello account.

Nothing connects until you approve it. You grant access one app at a time, you can take it back the same way, and everything your AI employee does in there is written down where you can see it.

How we handle your data
  • It signs in to your own Trello account. You are not moving anything into ours.
  • You grant access one app at a time, and you can take it back the same way.
  • Everything it does in Trello is written down, with what it did and when.
  • Anything you tell it to check with you first, it checks with you first.
Other apps in the same corner of the business

It works in Trello and the rest of your software in the same job

A real job rarely stays in one place. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in another and writing the result in a third is one request to your AI employee, not three.

Questions people ask about Trello

Can an AI employee really work inside Trello?
Yes. It signs in to your own Trello account and works in it the way a new hire would, from the chat your team already has open. Nobody installs anything, and nobody learns a new screen.
Do I have to move anything out of Trello?
No. Nothing moves and nothing is replaced. Your records stay in Trello, your team carries on in the same screens they used yesterday, and your AI employee works alongside them in there.
How does it get into my Trello account?
You sign in with your own Trello account, the same way you already do. We never see or hold your password. You approve it before anything connects, and you can take the access back the same way you gave it.
What can it actually do in Trello?
It has 88 ready-made tools in Trello today, among them Add a label to a board, Add attachment to card and Add board. The full list is on this page. It is not limited to those, but it never has to be taught them.
Can it use Trello and the rest of my software in the same job?
Yes, and that is usually the point. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in Trello and writing the result somewhere else is one request to your AI employee, not three separate ones you stitch together.
Who decides what it is allowed to do in Trello?
You do. You grant access one app at a time and can withdraw it at any time, anything you ask it to check with you first it checks with you first, and everything it does in Trello is written down with what it did and when.
