What is the Daily Memo?
A personal daily log that helps you remember what you accomplished before you compile your weekly report.
The Daily Memo solves a common problem: by the time Friday arrives, most people have forgotten the smaller wins, decisions, and blockers from earlier in the week. The memo gives you a lightweight place to jot things down as they happen, so compiling your weekly report becomes a matter of review rather than memory.
How it works
- Every day you can add short entries describing what you worked on.
- A Notes & context area holds free-form text: links, decisions, blockers, anything you want to remember.
- At the end of the week you can push selected entries directly into your report draft with one click.
- If your Outlook or Google Calendar account is linked, today's meetings appear as one-tap suggestion chips in the work log under a "From your calendar" heading. Events from both sources are merged and deduplicated automatically.
- If your Jira account is linked, issues assigned to you that are Done or Ready for QA this week appear as suggestion chips under a "From Jira" heading. Each chip shows a status icon, and clicking one adds it to your log instantly.
The streak counter
The header shows a flame icon with the number of days this week you have logged at least one entry. It is a lightweight nudge to stay consistent, not a metric that anyone else tracks.
Who can see your memo
Your memo entries are private. No one else can view your Daily Memo, not your manager, not leadership. Only content you explicitly push to a report becomes visible through the normal report access rules.
Think of the Daily Memo as a personal scratch pad. The goal is speed and honesty, not polish. You can tidy up your language when you push entries to the report.
