📖 Overview

What is this automation?

Agencies and consultancies often skip client reporting until the relationship is wobbly — at which point catching up is its own project. This automation produces a clean weekly report for every client, every Friday, without a project manager touching it.

⚠️

The Problem

Your PMs spend Friday afternoons compiling weekly status updates from ClickUp, hours logged in Harvest, and screenshots from various tools. Half of them get cut short, half of them never get sent, and the client only finds out something is behind when it's already too late.

The Solution

An end-of-week workflow that pulls task completion data, hours logged, key milestones, and blockers from your stack, generates a clean Notion page per client with AI-written narrative commentary, and emails the link to the client with a Slack copy to the internal team.
