Macro Tasks is a task management tool aimed squarely at engineering teams who want their work tracking, communication, and documentation in one place. It combines the basics you'd expect from any task management app with tighter developer-focused features: GitHub integration for syncing work with code, and AI agents that can act on tasks rather than just surface them.
Instead of bouncing between a project tracker, a chat tool, and a docs platform, Macro puts tasks, channels, email, and docs in one app. While Linear has a honed task management system, an engineering team using Macro has less context-switching and a single source for what's being worked on.
Key capabilities include:
Most task management tools stop at surfacing information or generating summaries with an agent. Macro's are positioned to take action, closing or opening tasks when needed rather than waiting for a human to update the board.
It's a focused product for teams who find general-purpose project tools too disconnected from how engineering work actually flows. Macro is also open source under AGPLv3 in case you want to self-host or audit what's running.
