Create items on any board
Email Carly to add a new item to a Monday.com board — a task, a client request, a bug report. Just include the details and she'll create it with the right column values filled in.
Update item statuses from email
Tell Carly to move an item to "Done" or change a status column to "Stuck" on your Monday board. She'll find the item and update it so your team sees the change instantly.
Get a board overview on demand
Ask Carly for a summary of a board — what's overdue, what's in progress, how many items are in each status group. She'll pull the data and send you a clean breakdown.
Assign people to items
Email Carly to assign a teammate to an item or reassign work across your board. She'll update the People column so everyone knows who's responsible.
Why teams are using AI to manage Monday.com
Monday.com is flexible enough to track almost anything — projects, clients, pipelines, hiring, content calendars. That flexibility is also what makes it high-maintenance. Every board has its own column structure, status labels, and people assignments. Keeping everything current means opening Monday, finding the right board, clicking into the right item, and updating the right columns. For teams with five or more active boards, that admin work eats into the time you should be spending on actual work.
AI tools for Monday.com reduce that friction by letting you update boards without opening the app. Email a quick update and the item status changes. Ask for a board overview and get it in your inbox. Create a new item with all the column values filled in — just by describing what you need. The board stays accurate because the barrier to updating it is a single message.
How Carly works as your AI Monday.com assistant
Carly connects to your Monday.com workspace through OAuth. Once linked, you manage your boards by emailing or texting Carly — like having a virtual assistant who knows your Monday setup.
Need to add an item? Email Carly with the board name, item title, status, assignee, and due date and she'll create it with the right column values. Want to update a status column? Tell Carly to change it and she'll find the item and update it. Need to know what's overdue across a board? Ask Carly and she'll pull the data and send you a grouped summary with statuses, assignees, and dates.
Carly reads your board structure, so she knows which columns are available and what the valid status labels are. She's not just dumping text into Monday — she's filling in the actual column values. And because she works from outside Monday, she can also pull context from your email, calendar, or CRM and push it into Monday items without you being the middleman.
Who uses an AI assistant for Monday.com
Operations managers running multiple Monday.com boards across departments who need a faster way to create items and check statuses. Agency owners tracking client projects on Monday who want to update boards without switching tabs during client calls. Team leads who use Monday as their central hub but spend too much time on manual updates. If your Monday.com boards are always a few days behind reality, Carly keeps them current with minimal effort.

Get Started →Frequently asked questions
What is the best AI for Monday.com?
Carly is an AI assistant that connects to your Monday.com workspace and lets you create items, update statuses, assign people, and get board overviews just by sending an email or text. Unlike Monday's built-in automations, Carly works from outside the app — you message her like a colleague, and she handles the Monday.com updates for you.
Can AI automate Monday.com boards?
Yes. With Carly, you can email or text instructions like "add an item to the Product Launch board, status Working on it, assign to Jamie, due April 15" and Carly will create it with the correct column values. You can also ask her to update statuses, reassign items, or pull board summaries on demand.
How does Carly connect to Monday.com?
Go to your Carly dashboard, click Connect next to Monday.com, and authorize access. Once connected, Carly can create items, update columns, and read board data.
Is Carly different from Monday.com's built-in automations?
Yes. Monday's built-in automations are rule-based workflows that trigger inside the app — like "when status changes to Done, notify someone." Carly is an AI assistant you email or text from outside Monday. She handles ad hoc requests like creating items, updating statuses, and pulling summaries, and she can also pull context from your email, calendar, or CRM to push into Monday boards.
What column types can Carly update on Monday.com?
Carly can update status, people, date, text, numbers, and dropdown columns. She reads the board's column structure so she knows what's available and fills in valid values.
Can I use AI to get a Monday.com board overview?
Yes. Ask Carly for a summary of any board and she'll send you a breakdown of items by status group, what's overdue, who's assigned to what, and what's coming up. It's a fast way to check project health without opening Monday.com.
