Automated Chanty Overdue Task Chasing

Every morning, WebRun opens Chanty, reviews the Teambook for tasks past their due date, posts a reminder listing them to a Telegram ops channel, and sends each task's owner a Twilio SMS nudge, so overdue work gets surfaced twice instead of staying buried in a kanban column.

In short

How do I chase overdue Chanty tasks automatically?

WebRun reviews Chanty's Teambook every morning for tasks past their due date, posts the list to a Telegram ops channel for team visibility, and sends each task owner a Twilio SMS nudge naming the task and how overdue it is. Only your own team gets texted, so nothing overdue stays quietly buried.

  • Overdue tasks get chased with a same-morning nudge
  • The whole team sees what's overdue, not just the owner
  • Nothing stays buried in a Teambook column

Questions, answered

Who gets texted about an overdue task?

Only the task's own owner, on their internal work number. WebRun never texts a customer or anyone outside your Chanty workspace.

Does WebRun mark tasks as done?

No. It only finds overdue tasks and chases them. Marking a task complete stays a manual step inside Chanty.

Why post to Telegram as well as texting?

The SMS gets the owner's attention directly. The Telegram post gives the whole team visibility into what's overdue, not just the person responsible.
