Productivity update
Project Templates in Omni AI Companion
Project Templates give a new project a useful opening shape when a blank page is the hardest part. They are starting points for recurring work, not rules: keep the sections that help, remove the ceremony that does not.
What changed
Begin with a proven outline
Choose a template that resembles the work and adapt its stages, questions, and checkpoints to your actual outcome.
Turn repetition into refinement
A template captures the parts you tend to forget, while each new project teaches you which parts deserve to stay.
Why this feature matters
Starting from zero consumes energy before the meaningful work begins. A well-chosen outline reduces that initial friction and prompts useful questions without pretending every project follows the same route.
Templates also make quality more repeatable. A freelancer, teacher, or organizer can remember the important review step even on a busy day, then improve the template when experience reveals a better path.
Feature examples and use cases
- A content brief: A creator starts with audience, purpose, outline, and review prompts before drafting a new article.
- A trip plan: A traveler uses a checklist for dates, needs, questions, and day-by-day ideas, then removes irrelevant sections.
- A recurring event: An organizer reuses a preparation and follow-up structure while customizing each event’s details.
How to use it
- Open Project Templates: Use Side menu → Productivity → Project Templates and browse the available starting shapes.
- Choose and customize: Select the closest match, rename sections, and remove prompts that do not serve this project.
- Save the lesson: After finishing, note what was missing or unnecessary so the next version becomes more useful.
Tips for a better first try
- Choose by workflow, not by attractive title.
- Keep a template short enough to use.
- Add a review prompt to recurring work.
Limitations and things to know
- Templates cannot know the unique constraints of a new project.
- Available template choices and editing controls may change over time.
Availability
Use Side menu → Productivity → Project Templates to browse the available starting shapes for a new project. The template selection and editing controls can vary by account, platform, and app version; only the choices shown in Omni are supported.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use a template for a personal project?
Yes. Templates are useful anywhere work repeats or a blank page creates friction.
Should I fill every section?
No. Remove or skip anything that does not help the current outcome.
Can a template replace planning?
No. It accelerates the opening structure; your judgment still shapes the plan.
