Chain is a group of tasks, events, and context aligned toward an objective. Chains are used in Acto along with regular tasks, as smart workflows
to better organize work. Items in chains can be predefined or added during the teamwork dynamically to keep work context and chain of events.
Information is scattered: it leads to misalignment / switching context takes time
Needed context lies beyond certain task/s: decisions can be made with the lack of data
Teamwork is not fully structured: add-ons, meets, follow-ups, edits, versions, approvals
Multi-assigned objectives require: more manual management, channels are spread
Lack of coordination and communication: occur between performers time to time
Useful valuable knowledge can be lost: during the work or scattered tasks
Chains keep data integrity byand provide quick access to context.
Chains are a place to gather context: relations and interactions by people.
Chains link events & systematize: ongoing teamwork and interactions.
Chains are the place to visualize & navigate: through teamwork and interactions.
Chains are collaboration hubs: that connect people, data, context and plans.
Chains gather local context: from tasks and data to communications.
Chains can be applied in company wide scenarios, e.g.: as smart checklists for one/multiple assignees, as group of related tasks, as jobs-to-do, as objectives, as workflows, as sub-projects for short or long term, and many others. Chain steps can be phases, tasks, meets, approvals.
Chain context may include: plan, structure | internal, external, agent participants | meetings, chats, calls | branches | add-ons, changes, versions | files, forms, pages,
tables | related approvals | statuses, types, deadlines, priorities, tags | custom attributes | history & analytics | templates | fillable fields | automations, scenarios

Companies are about Goals. Resources. People. Time. Processes. Projects. Companies are about information. Acto is about consolidation of all these concepts together.
Order and organization are the foundation of any business. At their core, companies operate as systems. Successful companies are systems organized better than others.
Imagine a person who can focus on what truly matters, set priorities, see goals with clarity and visualize the path to walk. Acto was designed with such people in mind.
What is the meaning, goal, purpose of your work? What role do you and your company play in it? What for? Why? The philosophy of Acto is to ask questions and find answers. To create. To develop. To inspire.
