Instead of relying on memory, sticky notes, or spreadsheet lists, this capability automatically generates and updates tasks inside your CRM whenever meaningful events occur—new leads, support escalations, renewal signals, or changes in sales stage.

Think of the system as a rules engine plus a task coordinator.

If later activity changes the situation—an email reply, an updated status, or a resolved ticket—the automation updates the existing task instead of cluttering the task list with duplicates.
