DoNotMiss

DoNotMiss captures tasks where they’re mentioned (emails, chats, web) and turns them into Jira issues instantly. No remembering. No missing work.

Comment

Inspiration

Have you ever forgotten something important because it was mentioned casually in an email, a chat, or a comment?

We realized that task loss is not a tooling problem. It is a human problem. Work rarely starts in Jira. It starts in conversations, messages, and moments where we assume we will remember later. Too often, we do not.

DoNotMiss was inspired by this gap. The space between when work is mentioned and when it is actually tracked. That gap is where tasks disappear, accountability breaks, and teams lose momentum.

What it does

DoNotMiss ensures that no task is forgotten at the moment it is mentioned.

It allows users to capture tasks directly from where they already work, such as emails, chats, and web pages, and safely convert them into Jira issues with full context.

Key capabilities:

  • Capture tasks directly from the browser using a Chrome extension
  • Detect task-like statements using AI, with clear user approval before creation
  • Send tasks to Jira with original source, context, and timestamp
  • Work natively inside Jira using Atlassian Forge UI
  • Integrate seamlessly with Jira Automation for prioritization and workflows

DoNotMiss does not replace Jira. It strengthens it by solving the problem that happens before Jira is even opened.

Forge UI + Jira Issue Generation

How we built it

We built DoNotMiss entirely within the Atlassian ecosystem, focusing on performance, trust, and native integration.

  • Chrome Extension for real-time task capture from emails, web pages, and text selections
  • Atlassian Forge UI to render task context and interactions inside Jira
  • Jira REST APIs to create issues with enriched metadata
  • Jira Automation rules to assign priorities, labels, and follow-up actions
  • AI-powered task detection that supports human decisions instead of acting blindly

Every design choice was made to reduce friction, avoid disruption, and keep users in control.

Challenges we ran into

One of the biggest challenges was balancing automation with trust.

Automatically creating issues without user approval risks noise and frustration. We solved this by designing an approval-first flow where AI suggests tasks, but users make the final decision.

Another challenge was preserving context. Tasks are only useful if teams understand why they exist. We ensured every captured task includes its original source, message, and timestamp inside Jira.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Built a fully working Chrome extension integrated with Jira
  • Designed a clean, approval-based AI workflow that users can trust
  • Created a Jira native experience using Forge instead of external dashboards
  • Solved a real problem that affects both personal productivity and professional teams
  • Aligned strongly with Atlassian values by enhancing Jira instead of competing with it

What we learned

We learned that the most impactful tools do not add complexity. They remove cognitive load.

We also learned that AI is most effective when it assists users quietly in the background, not when it takes control. Transparency, context, and user trust matter more than automation alone.

Finally, we learned that the best integrations feel invisible. They work where users already are.

What's next for DoNotMiss

Our next steps include:

  • Deeper integration with Atlassian Rovo for smarter task suggestions
  • Support for additional sources like Slack and calendar events
  • Team-level insights on where tasks are most frequently missed
  • Advanced duplicate detection and smarter prioritization

Our vision is simple. Work should not depend on memory. If a task is mentioned, it should never be missed.
