Rocketlane Task Automation, Mobile Approvals
Run Rocketlane on autopilot. Keep the veto.
69 actions
Rocketlane project work runs here: tasks, companies, assignees, comments, and time entries. Rills queues the consequential writes for a human to approve before they land.
Interactive. No signup. 14 days free · approvals always free.
Most automation fires first, asks later. Rills shows you the change before it ships.
Every consequential project management action from Rocketlane arrives on your phone first. Approve in seconds. Decline without explaining yourself. Workflows wait, paused at zero cost, until you decide.

Reassign 8 overdue tasks to the backup owner?

Free to wait. Free to think.
Approvals and logic don't cost a credit. Pause a workflow for three hours or three weeks. The price is the same: zero. You only pay when something real happens: an AI call, an outbound action.
Approve from your phone in five seconds.
Swipe right when you're sure. Decline when you're not. Between meetings, mid-coffee, on the train. No dashboard to babysit, no inbox triage, and no surprise send you find out about after it's already out the door.
Clear runs stop waiting on you.
Every run is scored against your review step. The ones that clearly match your judgment run above your threshold without a tap; the borderline ones still come to the queue. Autonomy is earned run by run, never switched on for good.
About Rocketlane automation
A comment wiped from the project thread, a task reassigned to a stranger, a company billing update that fires before anyone double-checks the new address. In project management, Rocketlane helps you move fast, but fast changes that ship unnoticed end up as support tickets and lost trust. Rills proposes every update, delete, or creation, and you approve every Rocketlane action before it touches the client.
When Rocketlane runs unsupervised
A single unwatched change can break a client relationship. These are the moments that hurt.
- Update Task by ID fires a reassignment to the wrong person, and the new assignee isn't even on the account.
- Delete Comment By ID wipes a client's handoff note, and you only find out when they escalate.
- Delete Project removes all documentation and timelines with one click, and no recovery exists.
- Update Company changes billing details silently, so invoices go to the wrong address.
- Create Time Entry logs hours against the wrong project, and billable time gets lost.
What Rills does inside Rocketlane
Rills watches for changes to tasks, comments, and company records, then proposes actions before they go live. You approve or deny the update, delete, or creation, and Rills acts only after your swipe. Rocketlane automation through Rills means no action goes live without your say.
The task still gets reassigned; you just see who it's going to first.
Why Rocketlane has no triggers and how Rills fills the gap
Rocketlane doesn't send events when a task is updated or a comment is deleted, so no direct automation trigger exists. Rills compensates by polling for changes and running scheduled checks that surface actions needing your approval.
- A scheduled check of tasks approaching their deadline (Get Task By Id) proposes reassigning or extending them before they slip.
- Polling for new comments on active projects (Get Comments) surfaces requests or issues that need a response, and Rills can draft the reply for you to approve.
- Resource allocation scans (Get All Resource Allocations) flag overbooked team members, and Rills suggests shifting workloads.

Common questions about Rocketlane automation
How do I automate Rocketlane task creation from client emails?
Rills watches your inbox for client requests and proposes a new Rocketlane task with the details it extracted. You review every proposal, tweak if needed, and approve from your phone. Nothing lands on your board until you swipe.
Can I get mobile approvals before deleting a Rocketlane project?
Rills won't delete a Rocketlane project without your say-so. When AI flags a stale project for removal, it queues the proposal. You review the reasoning on your phone and approve or reject. The delete only fires after you decide.
How do I automate Rocketlane time entry logging without letting AI run wild?
AI can propose time entries based on your calendar, Slack messages, or activity patterns, but you check each one. Rills holds them in your approval queue. Swipe to approve the accurate ones from your phone before they log in Rocketlane.
How do I automate Rocketlane field updates based on project status changes?
You can set Rills to watch for scope creep, date shifts, or status changes. When it spots a condition that warrants a field update, it proposes the change. You review the context on your phone and approve the update before it's applied.
How is Rills different from Zapier for Rocketlane automation?
Zapier fires actions immediately, no second look. Rills pauses every Rocketlane action for you to approve from your phone. You get the leverage of automation without losing the veto. Approvals and logic are free; you only pay when AI does real work.
Does Rills support Rocketlane webhooks for triggering actions?
Rocketlane doesn't emit webhooks, but Rills can still detect changes by polling your account or combining signals like emails and Slack. When it finds something that needs action, it proposes a task and waits for your approval.
Can Rills schedule Rocketlane actions to run at a specific time?
Yes, you can schedule Rills to check conditions at a set time. For example, every Monday it can propose a status update task for all active projects. You approve each proposal from your phone before it becomes a real Rocketlane task.
How much does Rills cost for Rocketlane automation?
Approvals and workflow logic are completely free. You only pay when Rills performs a real action, like creating a task, updating a field, or deleting a comment in Rocketlane. Pricing is transparent and based on the AI calls and external API work your automations actually use.
