Background Jobs

Danny runs several background jobs to keep your tasks organized and your day planned. These run automatically — you do not need to start or manage them.

Job types

Morning routine

Runs each morning at your configured time. Danny reviews your tasks, checks your calendar, and prepares a daily plan. You receive a summary with suggested priorities and time blocks.

You can configure the delivery time in Settings > Digest Preferences.

Evening digest

Runs in the evening to summarize what you accomplished during the day. It reviews completed tasks, highlights anything that slipped, and flags items for tomorrow.

You can configure the delivery time in Settings > Digest Preferences.

Calendar sync

Danny syncs your Google Calendar on a schedule so it has up-to-date information when planning your day.

AI classification queue

When you create or update a task, Danny queues it for AI processing. The classification job assigns priority, labels, and estimated effort. This usually completes within a few seconds.

AI estimation queue

Tasks are estimated for time and effort using AI. This runs alongside classification and helps the morning planner allocate your time realistically.

Monitoring

If a background job fails, it retries automatically. Persistent failures are logged on our end and do not affect other parts of the system. If something seems stuck — for example, your morning digest didn't arrive — check Settings > Integrations to make sure your Google account is still connected.
