What is AB?

1.1 What is AB?

AB is a collaborative task management platform built for Microsoft Teams. It enables teams to create, assign, and track tasks directly within their Teams channels, while also providing full access via web and mobile. AB helps your organization stay aligned, automate workflows, and manage projects efficiently — all without leaving the tools you already use every day.

Key Features

  • Task Management: Create, assign, and track tasks with deadlines, subtasks, attachments, and threaded comments.
  • Seamless Microsoft Teams Integration: Use AB as a Teams tab to view and manage tasks, or share updates directly in channels through adaptive cards.
  • AI Assistance: Generate summaries, draft comments, and receive smart task suggestions based on your team’s activity and history.
  • Contextual Collaboration: Mention teammates, manage roles and visibility, and keep conversations linked to the right tasks.
  • Enterprise Support: Built with Microsoft Entra ID (SSO), role-based access control, data retention policies, and integration options with tools like Zendesk or Shopify.

Who Is It For?

AB is designed for:

  • Teams using Microsoft Teams who want to manage projects and tasks directly inside their workspace.
  • Organizations that need cross-project visibility and structured reporting on task progress.
  • Managers looking for insight into work status without excessive communication overhead.
  • Developers, operations, and support teams who rely on clear task context and automated workflows.

Whether your team handles projects, customer operations, or product development, AB helps you turn conversations into structured, trackable work — improving both productivity and transparency.

I spend as much time simplifying as I do coding—because making things easy is part of the product. I build systems that work beautifully and explain themselves.

I focus on turning ideas into working code—refining architecture, fixing what’s broken, and improving what works. Sometimes the best “bug” becomes a feature.
