Smart Context

Basic plan and above

Smart Context is available on the Basic, Pro, and Ultra plans.

Smart Context is TellDone's AI feature that connects your recordings to your existing tasks. It has two parts: Smart Autocomplete and Smart Achievements.

Smart Autocomplete​

When you mention completed work in a voice note - like "I finished the presentation" or "sent the invoice to the client" - TellDone automatically finds the matching task and marks it as done.

How it works​

  1. You record a voice note mentioning completed work
  2. AI analyzes your words against your active tasks
  3. If a match is found, the task is automatically marked as done
  4. You see a confirmation that a task was auto-completed

Rules​

  • Up to 3 auto-completions per recording
  • Only matches against your active (not already completed) tasks
  • All auto-completions can be reviewed and undone in Settings > Activity

Smart Achievements​

Sometimes you complete work that wasn't planned as a task. When TellDone detects this, it creates an achievement record. This ensures your real progress is captured even when you work on unplanned items.

Achievements appear in your reports, giving you a complete picture of what you accomplished - both planned and unplanned work.

Up to 2 achievements can be recorded per recording.

Examples​

Here are a few examples of how Smart Context interprets your words:

  • "I deployed the new API" - if you have a task "Deploy API to production", it is automatically marked done
  • "Finished migrating the database, also wrote tests for the auth module" - the matching task is completed, and 2 achievements are logged (the migration and the tests)
  • "I called the dentist and renewed the subscription" - if neither matches an existing task, both are saved as achievements

Where achievements show up​

Achievements are included in your daily, weekly, and monthly reports. They give you credit for work you did even if it was not in your task list.

Settings​

To enable or disable Smart Context:

  1. Go to Settings
  2. Find the Smart AI section
  3. Toggle Auto-complete tasks from voice on or off
  4. Toggle Track achievements from voice on or off

You can enable or disable auto-complete and achievements independently - for example, keep achievements on but turn off auto-complete if you prefer to manage task status manually.

tip

Smart Context works best when your task titles are descriptive. "Call Maria about the contract" is much easier for AI to match than just "Call".

Where to see Smart Context activity​

  • Settings > Activity - view all auto-completions and undo any mistakes
  • Reports - achievements and auto-completed tasks appear in your daily, weekly, and monthly reports
  • Note detail - auto-completed tasks are highlighted in the note that triggered them
