Automations
Automate your workflow.
Keep your privacy.
Build if-this-then-that automations that run entirely on your machine. Tag changes, status updates, priority shifts - all automated without a cloud service or subscription.
Custom Rule Builder · Pro
Trigger. Conditions. Actions. Yours to design.
Pick from any event in your Space, gate the rule with ALL/ANY logic conditions, and chain multiple actions in order. Pair a keyboard shortcut, run on demand, and test before enabling - all on your machine.
Capabilities
Rules that work while you work
Trigger → Condition → Action
Build automations with a simple pattern: when something happens (trigger), if conditions match, do something (action). No code, no cloud, no complexity.
ALL / ANY Logic
Combine conditions with ALL (AND) or ANY (OR) logic. "When a task is completed AND has the #urgent tag" or "When priority is high OR status is blocked."
Tag-Based Automations
Trigger automations when tags change. Auto-assign status, priority, or projects based on tags. Tags become the building blocks of your workflow.
Test Before You Deploy
Test any automation with a single click before it goes live. See exactly what would happen without affecting real data.

Built for you
Perfect for
Workflow Optimisers
Automate repetitive status changes, priority assignments, and tag management. Spend time on work, not on organising work.
Project Managers
Auto-complete subtasks when a parent task finishes. Auto-assign priority when tasks enter specific projects. Keep your system consistent without manual effort.
Privacy-Conscious Users
Unlike Zapier or IFTTT, PrimeTask automations run entirely on your machine. No data leaves your device. No third-party service sees your workflow.
The difference
Automations that don't phone home.
Cloud automation tools like Zapier and IFTTT route your data through third-party servers. Every trigger, every action, every piece of context passes through someone else's infrastructure. And they charge monthly for the privilege.
PrimeTask automations run entirely on your machine. When a task is completed, the rule fires locally. When a tag changes, the condition evaluates in your app. No API calls. No webhooks. No data leaving your device.
This is workflow automation with zero privacy trade-offs - and it works without an internet connection.
Your rules. Your machine.
No third-party service required.
6 built-in automations are included in Standard. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited custom rules with full condition logic.
