Executive Summary:

The best product updates aren't always the flashiest — they're the ones that quietly delete work you do over and over. This release is exactly that. We shipped three updates aimed at the repetitive parts of managing work in Slingshot: recurring tasks, bulk actions, and Write with AI.

Set recurring work once with recurring tasks

Slingshot recurring tasks feature

Marketing runs on rhythm — weekly status updates, monthly reporting, the same content cadence every cycle. Until now, that meant recreating the same tasks by hand, which is exactly where things slip through the cracks.

Recurring tasks let you set a task to repeat on any cadence: daily, weekly, monthly, or a custom rule like "every 4th Thursday of the month." Set it once and Slingshot rebuilds the task on schedule — same details, same assignee — so the recurring work takes care of itself.

Do more in fewer clicks with bulk actions

Slingshot bulk actions multi-select feature

Re-planning a sprint or shifting a campaign timeline used to mean editing tasks one at a time. Not anymore. With multi-select, you can select a batch of tasks and update the due date, status, or assignee for all of them in a single action.

Need to reorganize instead of edit? Select a group of tasks and move them together to another list, section, or project. Whether you're reprioritizing, pushing work to the next sprint, or restructuring a project, it's one move instead of many.

Draft anything with Write with AI

Slingshot Write with AI feature

The blank text field is where momentum stalls. Write with AI fixes that. The new Write with AI button now lives in every text field across Slingshot — task descriptions, chat messages, and discussion posts.

Draft a task brief from a one-line prompt, rewrite a message to land better, or polish a discussion post before you send it — all in place, without leaving your work or switching to a separate AI tool. First drafts, handled.
