Your AI project manager, inside Slack.
No boards. No sprints. No tab-switching. Just tell Tickr what needs to happen — it tracks everything and follows up so you don't have to.
The status meeting exists because the tool failed.
Your team makes decisions in Slack. Context lives in Slack. But the task board lives somewhere else — so tickets go stale, updates are a chore, and half the team's real status is trapped in DMs.
You don't need a prettier JIRA. You need the task board to come to you.
How it works
Tell Tickr
Talk to Tickr in natural language. Create tasks, set priorities, assign teammates, add due dates — all in a Slack message.
@Tickr create a task for @ravi to fix the login bug, critical, due tomorrowTickr Tracks
Every task becomes an interactive card with Update, Complete, and Blocker buttons. Each channel gets a live board that updates automatically.
Tickr Follows Up
Smart nudges at the right time, to the right person. If blocked, Tickr nudges the blocker. Say "shipped" and it auto-closes.
What makes Tickr different
Natural Language Task Management
Create, update, and close tasks by talking to @Tickr. No forms. No dropdowns. No ceremony. It understands context, resolves dates, and assigns the right person.
Smart Nudges That Respect Your Time
Every morning, each person gets a private DM listing only their tasks that need attention. Critical tasks get nudged 4x more often. Low-priority ones get breathing room. Snooze when you need focus, and configure each channel’s schedule with /tickr schedule.
Private DM to each person with their tasks needing attention
Individual pings for non-responders
End-of-day sweep for outstanding items
Nudges the Blocker, Not the Blocked
When a task is stuck, most tools punish the assignee. Tickr flips it — tell it who’s blocking and why, and it nudges that person to help unblock.
Update Quality Checks
Reply "done" to a nudge and Tickr auto-closes the task. Reply "working on it" and Tickr pushes back. A good PM holds the quality bar.
Live Canvas Board
Each channel gets an auto-updating board — a live dashboard right in Slack. Tasks grouped by status, sorted by priority, with AI-generated summaries.
Tags, Recurring Tasks & Group Assignments
Organize with tags like #bug and #frontend. Set tasks to recur daily, weekly, or monthly — they auto-create on completion. Assign a task to multiple people and track per-person progress.
AI Highlights, Lowlights & Standups
/tickr highlights — What the team shipped. /tickr lowlights — What slipped. /tickr standup — Per-person daily standup that replaces your standup meeting. AI-generated. Names attached.
- ✓ API integration shipped by @ravi
- ✓ Onboarding flow redesigned by @maya
- ✓ 3 blockers resolved this week
- ✗ Deploy to prod missed deadline by 2 days
- ✗ Dashboard task stalled — no updates in 5 days
- ✗ 2 tasks with vague updates only
Thread-to-Task Extraction
Decisions buried in a Slack thread? Say “@Tickr take it away” and it extracts action items as editable suggestion cards. Review, tweak, and create — one click each.
Weekly AI Digest
Every Monday at 9 AM, each team member gets a personalized DM: overdue items, due this week, in-progress tasks, update quality trends, and encouragement. Like Duolingo for project management.
Auto-Priority Intelligence
Tickr auto-assesses priority from keywords (“crash” = critical, “bug” = high), due date proximity, tone and urgency cues, and assignee workload. No manual triage needed.
Predictive Slip Detection
Tickr scores every task from 0–100 on slip risk using six signals: time pressure, activity gaps, progress deficit, update quality, blocking status, and historical patterns. At-risk tasks get proactive alerts before they miss their deadline.

Built for teams that live in Slack
Your PM is also the engineer is also the designer. Nobody has time for JIRA. Tickr lets you manage tasks in the channels where work already happens.

About Tickr
We built the PM that nobody has to manage.
Every team we've been on ended up in the same place: a project board nobody updates and a Slack channel where the real status lives. The status meeting exists because the tool failed. The Monday morning scramble exists because the board went stale over the weekend.
The old way
Open JIRA. Find the board. Remember which sprint you're in. Update the ticket. Switch back to Slack to tell everyone you updated the ticket. Repeat until you stop bothering.
The insight
The best project manager you've worked with didn't need a dashboard. They walked the floor, asked the right questions at the right time, and held the quality bar on updates. They were present where the work happened.
Tickr
That project manager — built into the tool your team already has open 8 hours a day. It listens. It asks. It remembers. It follows up. And when you say “done,” it believes you and closes the loop.
What we believe
Meet people where they are
The best tools don't ask you to change your workflow. They fit into the one you already have.
Follow-through over features
Anyone can create a task. The hard part is making sure it actually gets done. That's the part we automate.
Persistent, not annoying
There's a line between helpful and nagging. We respect it. Smart nudges with grace periods, snooze, and escalation that matches urgency.
Blame the bottleneck, not the blocked
When work is stuck, we nudge the person causing the block — not the person waiting. Accountability should be accurate.
Tickr started because we were tired of managing the tool that was supposed to manage our work. We think your project tracker should do the tracking — and the follow-up — so you can focus on the work that matters.
Built for teams that ship in Slack, not in spreadsheets.
