Important
This method of creating task-based subitems currently works with English-language text only and is not supported for blueprints.
This feature uses natural language processing to select which parts of text in the task description or comment are actionable tasks. It then creates subitems from these sections of text.
Note
When a subitem is created by AI, it won't be assigned to the user named in its title if the parent task is not shared with that user.
AI-subtask creation focuses on phrases starting with a root verb. For example, the phrase Manage things will be recognized as an actionable task, whereas Managing things will not. In addition, AI-subitem creation takes into account your structure and punctuation. The phrase Manage things and count the numbers will be converted into one task-based subitem, but Manage things. Count the numbers. will be converted into two.
Wrike's AI can also recognize dates and names in the text and fill in the corresponding fields in the subitem. For example, if you highlight the text Create a cool product presentation, John Smith, January 9, AI will create a task-based subitem with the title Create a cool product presentation, John Smith, January 9, assigned to John Smith and with the end date on January 9. Other examples of Wrike's AI-recognized date formats include tomorrow, next Friday, 07/02/2025, Feb 07, and others.
Note
If you have two dates in the selected text the earliest date would be recognized as a start date for the created subitem and the latest as the end date.
You can quickly turn sections of text into actionable subitems using AI. Here’s how:
-
Highlight the text you want to scan for task-based subitems.
-
Select the Scan the selected text and let our AI create subitems 1 icon in the menu that appears to the left of the highlighted text.
Sections of text which are recognized as actionable tasks will be added as task-based subitems. To undo this action, you can click the Undo button that appears on the pop-up at the top of the window. This option appears for 10 seconds, or until another update is made to the task description.
Note
Where a subitem is created, the original text will become a hyperlink inside your task description. If you delete this hyperlink, the subitem itself will not be deleted. To delete a subitem, right-click its title under the task header and select Delete. This does not apply to creating task-based subitems from comments. When the subitem is created, text in the comment stays unchanged.
