Tobo, a private-beta team assistant for recurring work

Tobo is a private-beta work assistant that puts shared memory, tasks and approval settings in a group for a small team.

Tobo is a team assistant in private beta. The publisher describes it as a shared group where coworkers can hand off tasks, see what has happened and keep the information that will matter next time. Access is rolling out team by team.

Work from a shared activity feed

The company describes research, reports, spreadsheets and follow-ups as examples of work a team can hand over. A coworker can make a request in the group or set a recurring task. The activity feed shows what is running and what has finished, so a second coworker can see whether the request is still in progress before asking for it again.

The group also shares memory organized around projects. Participants can read, correct or erase it. The team can keep a reusable detail there instead of expecting everyone to repeat it in a fresh request.

Connect only the accounts you want it to use

The publisher names Google Workspace and Slack as its first integrations and lists others as later plans. It describes three permission settings for tools: block the action, ask first or allow it. The company says actions that leave the team, cost money or delete something wait for approval. Its terms also say generated work can be wrong. It remains useful to read a proposed update before sending it outside the group.

Access and pricing

There is a private-beta list rather than general sign-up. The publisher describes a paid plan billed per teammate with no credits. It says it will show the amount before billing starts. If a team gets access, a small recurring task with a visible output is a reasonable first way to see whether the shared feed and approvals fit its work.
