Built a task manager that adapts to fast moving teams

I’ve always hated how every hackathon or side project starts the same way: a new WhatsApp group, links buried in chat by day two, and one person updating a Google Sheet while everyone else ghosts. It’s not a huge problem - just one of those small, recurring annoyances that add up.

I spent 3 months testing why this keeps happening. Turns out, the friction isn’t just the tools; it’s the onboarding. Meta’s WhatsApp API, signups, workspaces, and inviting teammates? That’s a lot for a team that might only exist for a weekend. And honestly, we didn’t need Notion or Jira. We just needed a way to turn "update in chat" into "task on board" automatically. So, I built Euclis.dev - a real-time productivity platform for small teams that adapts to how you actually work. No forcing everyone into a new app. No friction. Core idea: 1:1 WhatsApp assistant per person that turns your messages into a shared kanban, plus a web dashboard for assets/whiteboard. No forcing everyone into a new app.

It’s still rough. I’ve been testing with a few teams and in general got the feedback that it is genuinely useful to people.

Would love feedback from people who run hackathons/side projects:

- What’s the dumbest thing about how teams collaborate right now?

- If you could wave a wand, what would make team coordination 10x easier for a 2-day sprint?

Happy to share what I built if anyone wants to poke holes in it!
