How many hours do you spend on crafting emails + replying to work messages everyday?
How many hours do you spend on tracking project progress and follow-ups everyday?
I personally spend 2 hours on emails & messages, another 1 hour on project tracking. But maybe 1-2 hours joggling around tasks and wasted.
Wonder if there's any good AI or SaaS tools to reduce the time spent on the above tasks?

30 min to 1 hour, depending on how many emails I get from people.
4-5 hours daily on emails & tracking - we're literally spending 25% of our lives in our inbox! 🤯

Too many... I need to condense my time
Probably around 2 hours too

Not to much. Maybe up to 15 or 30 minutes.
But spending time on social media is a huge problem :D

10 mins - to understand if I have any imp emails
I’d say I spend around 1 hour on emails daily? With some AI writing tools it’s probably a bit shorter now, but I haven’t been keeping track exactly.
30 mins to 1 hour for me too, depending on the day. I try to batch process them a couple times a day so I'm not constantly getting distracted. Anyone have tips for being more efficient with email?
I find that I use chat more often these days. As for emails, I probably spend around 1 to 2 hours on them every day. It can be quite time-consuming, but I'm always on the lookout for ways to make it more efficient. Maybe I should explore some of those AI or SaaS tools mentioned to see if they can help me manage my email time better and free up some of my day for other tasks.
Need AI Assistant with long-term memory！😌
What's worked for me is spending 10 minutes daily reflecting on where I lose time.
At least two hours per day for emails and tracking. Too many messages and projects are happening at the same time. Unfortunately I still didn't find a smart and trustful tool for these tasks. Perhaps because these tasks are too complicated to be dealt with by AI.
Chatgpt has made huge difference, not gonna lie
I spend around 2-3 hours daily on emails, messages, and project tracking too. Some tools that helped me save time are Superhuman for emails, Slack for streamlined messaging, and tools like Trello or Asana for project tracking. AI tools like Claude or ChatGPT also help with crafting faster replies. Would love to hear what others recommend!
I can totally relate! I also spend a lot of time on emails and project tracking
around 15 on emails, however, more than 1 hour on instant messages, we use tanka on everything, communicate, verification, AI assistant .... etc
I'd say I spend about 30 minutes a day on emails, give or take. But it depends on how chaotic the email situation is. Is it urgent? Does it need a reply? Or worse, does it require one of those carefully crafted responses? Most of the time, it's just a flood of overly formal and corporate emails. But I still dive in because there might be a gem worth responding to somewhere in all that text.
