Hey IH,

I got tired of the same problem every team has: you assign a task in Slack, it gets buried in threads, the person never saw it, nothing gets done. You follow up. Repeat forever.

So I built Qevo — an inbox-style task manager where tasks are pushed directly to people's personal queues. No searching, no missed assignments, no "I thought you were handling that."

• Everyone has their own task queue (like an inbox for tasks)
• You push tasks to specific people. They land in their queue, guaranteed
• They manage their own queue and work through it at their pace

What I built in ~3 months:

• Personal task queues (free forever, no limits)
• Email-to-task: forward any email → instant task
• Slack integration: /qevo in any message → task created (Still pending their final approval)
• Chrome extension for one-click task capture from any webpage
• Team plan for pushing tasks across teammates
• Shareable queues + productivity stats

Why another task app? Most task managers are project centric (Trello boards, Jira backlogs). Great for planning, terrible for the actual handoff. "I assigned it to you" means nothing if it's buried in a 200 card board. Qevo is person-centric - each person has their queue, and things land there directly. You can also see how busy someone is if they share their queue.

Where I am:

• Launched about a month ago
• Free plan for individuals, Team plan at $3/seat/month
• Have a Chrome extension live on the Web Store

What worked:

• The email-to-task feature gets the best reaction. People immediately get it
• Starting with a free personal plan (no credit card) removes signup friction completely

What I'm struggling with:

• Getting the first paying teams (individuals love it, converting to team plan is harder)
• Finding the right channel to reach project managers and team leads

If you manage a team and hate losing tasks in Slack/email, I'd genuinely love feedback. Happy to give anyone here extended trial access.

You know the feeling. You're deep in something, a message comes in, you mentally note "I'll reply to that in a minute" and then you surface three hours later and it's gone. Not gone from Slack, gone from your head.

That was me constantly. Slack messages, emails, things people mentioned in passing. They'd evaporate unless I acted on them immediately. My memory was not the system I thought it was.

I tried every task app. The problem was none of them were where the tasks were coming from. Tasks were living in Slack, in my inbox, in meeting notes and getting them into a separate app required enough friction that I'd skip it when I was busy. Which was always.

So in January I started building Qevo, a single inbox where anything actionable can land. Forward an email, send a message to a Slack bot, paste a link, it becomes a task. No app switching, no friction, nothing falls through.

Where I'm at:

2 months in, building mostly solo Handful of users, no paying customers yet Product works, now trying to figure out if anyone else has this problem badly enough to pay for it That last part is where I'm stuck. I know I had this problem. I know the people I've shown it to nod when I describe it. But converting that into users who actually stick around and eventually pay, that's the gap I'm trying to close right now.

If this resonates with you, or if you've solved this kind of distribution problem before, I'd genuinely love to hear how you thought about it.
