What is DoneDone?

DoneDone ships custom fields — expanding from simple task tracker to configurable work platform.

DoneDone is a project management and helpdesk tool that has been steadily deepening its structural capabilities over the past several months. Recent releases show a deliberate build-up: kanban sorting and collapse controls, workflow automations tied to status changes, email-to-task intake, and now custom fields. The product ships incrementally but on a consistent cadence, with most features driven by direct customer requests.

DoneDone ships custom fields — expanding from simple task tracker to configurable work platform.

◆ Current state

DoneDone is a project management and helpdesk tool that has been steadily deepening its structural capabilities over the past several months. Recent releases show a deliberate build-up: kanban sorting and collapse controls, workflow automations tied to status changes, email-to-task intake, and now custom fields. The product ships incrementally but on a consistent cadence, with most features driven by direct customer requests.

◆ Where it's heading

DoneDone is building toward a more configurable platform, moving away from opinionated simplicity toward flexible data models and process automation. Custom fields and workflow automations together form the foundation of a structured work management tool that teams can mold to their own processes. The direction is clear: make DoneDone adaptable enough to compete with more complex tools without requiring that complexity upfront.

◆ Prediction

Custom fields will likely expand with automation triggers (e.g., automate based on field value, not just status), and the email-to-task intake may gain routing rules or field-mapping capabilities to make incoming requests more organized from the start.
