Workspace

AI-native project collaboration: message board, to-dos, schedule, files, check-ins, and Hill Charts that update themselves.

Overview

OneMango Workspace bundles a message board, grouped to-do lists, a schedule, recurring check-ins, and a Hill Chart onto one scrollable canvas per project, with its own Shared Drive created automatically the moment you start it. Each workspace has three roles: owners run its settings and membership, members post and complete the work, and viewers follow along read-only (they can still tick off, and comment on, a to-do assigned to them).

Its AI agent drafts a member's check-in from what they actually did, proposes where a Hill Chart dot belongs based on completed work, and can summarize a long thread or suggest a follow-up to-do. It only ever proposes — every draft waits for a person to approve, edit, or dismiss before anything posts, and each approved AI write is logged for audit.

To-dos here are the same task records the org-wide Tasks app uses, just scoped to this project instead of living in a separate system. Give someone outside the company — a client, vendor or partner — an access link, no OneMango account required, and they can follow updates and comment on a view with internal notes automatically hidden.

Run a project on one scrollable canvas — message board, to-dos, schedule, files, check-ins, and Hill Charts — with an AI agent that drafts check-ins and proposes Hill Chart positions for a person to approve.

Highlights

Run a whole project on one scrollable canvas — message board, to-dos, schedule, files, check-ins, and Hill Charts, with a Kanban board one click away.
Let the Workspace Agent (Claude) draft each member's recurring check-in from their real activity — they approve before it posts.
Accept or dismiss AI-proposed Hill Chart positions computed from completed to-dos, instead of dragging dots by hand.
Generate a weekly external digest that auto-redacts internal-only posts and to-dos.
Give people outside the company external access by access link to follow updates and comment — no OneMango account required.
Keep every AI write gated: the agent proposes but never commits on its own, and AI-originated commits emit an audit record.

Use cases

Agency client engagement
A project manager runs each client engagement in its own workspace — posts updates, tracks milestones on a Hill Chart, and sends a weekly digest that auto-hides internal notes. Clients follow along through an external access link and comment on shared posts.
Multi-store equipment rollout
An operations manager tracks rollout milestones on the schedule, logs per-store issues as to-dos on a Kanban board, and lets the agent draft the weekly status check-in from each team's completed work.
Open-enrollment program kickoff
An HR program lead bundles policy docs in the workspace Shared Drive, puts enrollment milestones on the schedule, runs a Hill Chart per benefits track, and collects recurring check-ins the agent pre-drafts for review.
New office build-out
An IT project manager coordinates contractors, IT, and facilities on one canvas. The agent summarizes long message threads, and Hill Chart proposals keep the status honest as to-dos complete — while the external digest omits internal vendor details.
Customer onboarding
A field-service coordinator opens one workspace per account, drives installation milestones on the schedule, collects per-technician check-ins, and hands the external digest to the customer as the weekly deliverable.

FAQ

Yes. A workspace owner (or the workspace app admin) can issue an external access link that lets someone outside the company — with no OneMango account — view the workspace's externally-visible updates and add comments. Access links are valid for 30 days and can be revoked at any time. Internal-only posts and to-dos stay hidden, and external guests cannot edit to-dos or post to the board.

No. The Workspace Agent drafts proposals — check-in responses, Hill Chart positions, thread summaries, suggested to-dos — but every write requires user approval before persisting. AI-drafted records carry the platform's AI-assisted flag and only go live once a person accepts them, and agent-made Hill Chart moves are stamped with the time the agent touched them. An admin can also turn the agent off entirely via the 'Enable Workspace AI Agent' setting.

Each workspace auto-provisions its own Shared Drive (from the Drive app) when it is created, so files inherit Drive's versioning, sharing, and preview rather than living as bare attachments. The files section on the canvas reads directly from the workspace's Drive.

Chat is real-time messaging; the Tasks app is a flat, org-level task list. A Workspace is a self-contained project container — one scrollable canvas that bundles a threaded message board (title + body posts, not chat), grouped to-do lists (with Kanban and recurring options), a schedule, files, recurring check-ins, and Hill Charts, with members scoped to that one project.

By default managers and admins, plus anyone who has direct reports — other members cannot; workspace app admins can always create one. An admin can change this with the 'Who can create a workspace?' setting: keep that default, narrow it to the manager role or to people managers, restrict it to app admins only, open it to everyone, or scope it to specific groups or people. Admins can also cap the number of workspaces per business and members per workspace; both are unlimited unless a limit is set.

Use the Create button at the top of the workspace canvas — it opens the form for a message, task, event or linked tool in a side panel. If you prefer typing, start a message's body with /task, /msg, /link or /event and it creates that item instead of a post: '/task Send the draft @Priya by Friday' adds a to-do assigned to that member and due Friday, and '/event Sprint review Friday 3pm' adds a schedule event. Dates and assignees are read by the Workspace AI agent.

It generates an on-demand 3–5 bullet recap of what changed in the workspace since your last visit. It reads your membership's last-visited timestamp (falling back to the last 7 days the first time), gathers recent activity, and asks the LLM to summarize new posts, completed work, decisions, and mentions tailored to you.

Yes. Save any workspace as a reusable template — its to-do lists (and their tasks), Hill Chart scopes, and check-in questions are captured — then spin up new workspaces from it. You can also start from a shared central-library template curated for the whole business, and one-click duplicate an existing workspace with its structure and open to-dos.

Archiving posts an automatic 'Project recap' to the message board summarizing the workspace's whole life. Deleting is a soft-delete — the workspace moves to My Trash and can be restored from there within 30 days; after that window it can no longer be restored.
