Tasks and requests for busy organisations

Ask. Assign. Done.

People send a WhatsApp, a voice note or a photo. Ownimo turns it into a task with an owner and a due date, keeps everyone posted, and makes sure it gets done. No training needed.

Works on any phone. English and Afrikaans voice notes.

How Ownimo works

Three steps your people already know, because they start in WhatsApp.

  1. Step 1

    Ask

    WhatsApp your Ownimo number, send a voice note or a photo, or tap Request in the app. Ownimo asks a quick question if something is missing.

  2. Step 2

    Assign

    It lands with the right team, with an owner and a due date. Can't do it? Hand it over. It only moves when someone accepts.

  3. Step 3

    Done

    The person who asked confirms it's done. Late or stuck work goes to the team lead, then the manager, by itself.

Built for how busy organisations really work

Schools, residential estates, body corporates, offices and farms: the office, maintenance, security, IT, the board, and everyone who needs something fixed.

WhatsApp first

Requests by text, voice note or photo. Updates and buttons arrive in WhatsApp, so nobody has to learn an app.

AI that tidies up

Voice notes are transcribed, photos described, and each request sent to the right team with a sensible priority.

My week

Each person sees what is theirs, overdue first, and plans their week. Duties repeat by themselves.

Nothing is dropped

Every task has an owner and a due date. Handovers only complete when the new person accepts.

Escalation and cover

Late or unpicked work goes to the lead, then the manager. Away? Your cover gets your alerts.

Projects

Plan the matric dance or a new lab: describe it and Ownimo drafts the tasks, teams and dates for you to check.

Private tasks

HR, disciplinary or resident matters stay with the people involved. Details are encrypted; not even admins can read them.

Reports

On time, late, moved, sent back and pick-up times, per team or person. Download for Google Sheets.

Simple enough for everyone

Big buttons, plain words, works on any phone. Add it to the home screen and it behaves like an app.

Questions people ask

Do our people need to install anything?+

No. They send Hi to your Ownimo WhatsApp number and tap the link. They can add Ownimo to their home screen so it opens like an app.

Who can get in?+

Only people on your people list. An admin uploads the list (name and cell number) from a Google Sheet. Anyone else is turned away.

Does it work in Afrikaans?+

Voice notes and messages in Afrikaans, English or a mix are understood. The app itself is in English for now.

What do we need on our side?+

A WhatsApp Business number for your organisation (we help you set it up) and someone to load the people list. Google sign-in is optional.

How does a pilot work?+

Three months, free, with one or two teams such as maintenance and IT. We set it up with you. If you continue, everything carries over.

How do we pay?+

By invoice and EFT, monthly or per year. The yearly price is two months free, which fits an annual budget approved by your board.

What happens to our data?+

It belongs to you. Reports export to CSV for Google Sheets, private tasks are encrypted, and closed work is kept for two years.
