🧠 AI Features (Beta)
Hoylu’s new AI capabilities are available as a bring-your-own-AI (BYOAI) beta — meaning you connect your own OpenAI key, and all data stays in your environment.
Once connected under Menu → Set AI API Key, you can:
Extract notes from images – Capture sticky notes from jobsite photos into digital form.
Convert notes to tasks – Automatically structure your notes into tasks with teams, durations, and start dates.
Create subtasks – Let AI suggest logical task breakdowns.
Suggest teams – Identify missing or relevant teams based on project context.
Generate alt-text for images – Improve accessibility and make your images searchable.
💡 “We wanted to help teams bridge the gap between the wall and the workspace — without sacrificing privacy or control.”
🔗 Connections in the Weekly Work Plan
You can now view and manage task dependencies directly within the Weekly Work Plan.
Tasks show icons for predecessors and successors.
Click the icon to see all connections.
Warnings appear automatically for dependency conflicts and can be resolved right from the side panel.
💡 “Now I can see what’s blocking me — and fix it — without leaving the plan.”
🔍 Faster Dashboard Experience
We’ve improved dashboard performance to make workspace navigation seamless:
Search results now appear instantly, even in large projects.
Label filters load without delay.
Shared or duplicated workspaces now appear at the top of your list.
💡 “No more loading messages — search feels instant.”
🎁 UX Improvements & New Shortcuts
We’ve made several small but impactful enhancements across Hoylu:
Full-length subtask: Create a single subtask that spans the full activity duration — perfect for high-level tracking.
Editable default values: You can now clear and retype numeric inputs freely.
Custom color modal fix: The color picker dialog now displays fully, so all buttons are accessible.
