Content and community manager here. Things I'd love to automate:
- responding to comments/messages on social media
- automatically extracting KPI data from sources to my spreadsheet
- documenting work in Asana
- posting Reels/stories - for some reason lots of social media planning apps don't let you publish those.

@raindropvisions Thanks! I'll check it out :)
@kate_santoro1 I'm also having the same problems regarding social media management. Do you use any tools to manage social media accounts? i'm thinking about paying to use one. Any recommendation?
@imjohnkoo We use Hubspot so I'm able to schedule some posts in there, though it won't let me scheduled Reels or Stories, not sure why. As for dealing with messages, I know that it's possible to connect Instagram DMs to Intercom if you use that, and maybe to Zendesk and other support centers as well. But it doesn't help me too much because I'm more so talking about replying to comments on posts, responses to stories, etc. Good luck with it!
@kate_santoro1 Platforms such as ManyChat or Tidio can be set up to respond to comments on posts, stories and DM's (for FB and IG)!

I'm a Senior Product Designer so I design apps, conduct research, work with developers and others.
I don't know if any part of my job can be automated. If I had to choose, it would be documenting my work and saving notes/screenshots automatically.

Entrepreneur. Previously I had a software development agency and now I'm working on my own startup.
Of course, marketing is the hardest part. I have to create content for my ads and it takes a lot of time. AI is not good enough yet, but it would be amazing if somebody could just work on my ads as a subscription service.

Managing people😅
I think we can all agree that a business is often only as good as its people, but understanding your team & giving them valuable actionable feedback is hard.
Honestly, managing people was hard for me in my last company that I've now moved on to creating a product to help with this specifically. Intelogos.com automates performance management by collecting performance data and generating suggestions that help your team grow. Feel free to sign up, we have a free beta going on now! 🚀
IT Delivery Lead here! Automating filling in timesheets would be amazing. We need to be very strict and detailed for each hour/half hour, so it takes lots of time.
We produce videos for various B2B/SaaS companies, which means we spend a good amount of time preparing things before the cameras even start filming. I'd really love a button that would set up the scene immediately so we can just film right away without having to worry about angles and bad lighting. Sounds like a far-fetched dream but hey, it's a nice one regardless.
