Todoist is where your tasks live, but Workload is where they come alive. When you link Todoist to Workload, every new to-do can kick off an automation. That means no more juggling updates across tools—your tasks move exactly where they’re needed, automatically.

Each task carries key details like its title, due date, priority, and project. Workload captures all of it and puts that information to work. You can update a project board, send a Slack alert, or log everything into Google Sheets without lifting a finger.

Once connected, Todoist becomes more than just a to-do list. It’s part of a bigger system that keeps projects moving, teams in sync, and priorities crystal clear.
