Tired of chasing overdue tasks in Asana? In this video, I show you exactly how to set up an automated follow-up system that keeps your projects moving, without you having to send a single reminder email.

You’ll learn how to:  
✅ Automatically nudge teammates when a task becomes overdue  
✅ Escalate overdue tasks after multiple days using Asana AI Studio  
✅ Apply this rule to one project or roll it out across all projects with Workflow Bundles  
✅ Use Asana’s automation features (Starter, Advanced, or Enterprise) to reduce manual follow-ups and keep projects on track

@paulminors good to see you back on the forum! Not sure I agree with the idea of deploying a “simple” AI Studio rule across the entire space, wouldn’t that become really expensive real fast? Can’t you do it with native rules? Maybe that was just an example to see AI Studio in action!

Thanks @Bastien_Siebman . This would be more useful for select users (e.g. business owners or managers) to keep an eye on their team. And yes, it’s a useful example of how AI studio can help 🙂

You can do it with native rules.  
Just get an escalation-field 1 to 3. Everytime the date gets changed, add one to the escalation-field. When 2 do that. When 3 do that…
