Autonomous Tasks

Build complete applications through natural conversation. Describe what you want, and the system creates it automatically.

The AutoTask system uses an LLM-powered intent classifier to understand your request and route it to the appropriate handler. Whether you need a full web application, a simple reminder, or automated monitoring, you describe it in plain language.
