Automation is a key part of how businesses work now. It gets rid of jobs that are done over and over again, giving workers more time to do work that matters. When used in teams, it does more than just speed things up; it also makes sure that everyone works well together and that results are always delivered. When teams don’t have automation, they waste hours looking for changes, reconciling data, or doing the same tasks over and over again. This makes progress slower. Businesses can get rid of these problems and improve teamwork and productivity by using project management tools that work on their own.
People can do things that used to be hard to do now because digital platforms are connected and automated. Automation helps individuals comprehend things better by giving them jobs, keeping track of information, and making sure everyone is working toward the same goals. This makes things run more smoothly and helps teams get their work done faster.
Lark Base: Turning complex processes into structured workflows
Effective collaboration depends on shared information—but when data is scattered across multiple tools, progress slows. Lark Base brings projects, customer details, and decision histories into one connected system, making everything easy to access. With its excellent customization capabilities, Base can evolve into a zero-code CRM app or other business tools—such as inventory trackers or enterprise management systems—depending on what teams need.
- Databases that can be changed: Create processes that keep track of clients, projects, or resources without needing any outside technologies.
- Linked records: Automatically link tasks, approvals, and documents so you can see the whole picture.
- Dashboards: Show progress in real time, so managers can keep an eye on things without having to report them themselves.
- Filters and tags: These automatically sort records so that teams may focus on the ones that matter most.
- Version control: Make sure your data is valid and up to date so that there is no confusion or duplication.
Lark Tasks: Driving accountability with automated workflows
Managing chores could be one of the most boring parts of working with other people if you don’t automate them. Lark Tasks takes care of this by making sure that tasks, due dates, and follow-ups happen without you having to enter them all the time. By making sure that everyone is responsible for their own job, teams can keep projects on schedule.
- Automated workflow: An automated workflow makes it easier to assign activities that need to be done on a regular basis and keep track of how well they are being done.
- Smart reminders: Automatically tell workers when deadlines are coming up. This speeds things up.
- Templates that can be used again and over again: For activities that happen a lot, like weekly evaluations or status updates, do the same things every time.
- Progress dashboards: You can see jobs that are finished, in progress, or late without having to make any extra effort.
- Linked tasks: Linked tasks to records in Base so that the context is always clear.
Lark Sheets: Automating data-driven collaboration
Data normally helps teams make decisions, but it takes a long time to collect and update it by hand. Lark Sheets fixes this by letting you share and work on spreadsheets in real time. They work swiftly and make sure everything is correct. Instead of reconciling numbers, teams might just look at the results.
- Working together in real time: Update your data jointly so you don’t have more than one copy of it.
- Changes that happen by themselves: You don’t have to enter into information; you can acquire it immediately from workflows or other tools.
- KPI tracking: You don’t have to do anything to keep an eye on team and project KPIs that show how well they’re doing.
- Dashboards that show data visually: Change how data looks when new data comes in.
- Smart sharing: You can share files with various teams without having to make copies of them.
Lark Wiki: Automating knowledge access for efficiency
Teams need knowledge to work together, but when answers are hidden in messages or papers, they waste time looking for them. Lark Wiki makes it easy to find information by putting it all in one place and allowing it grow through updates that happen automatically and with other people.
- A place to keep everything in one place: Put all of your instructions, frequently asked questions, and best practices in one location that is easy to find.
- A searchable database of information: You can quickly find the right pages by using keywords.
- Working together to edit: Automatically modify the content when workflows change.
- Cross-linking pages: Make it easier to get about by linking pages that are related to each other.
- Task links: You can always see Wiki articles that are linked to tasks or projects.
Lark Mail: Automating continuity in communication
Sometimes, problems can happen when external communication isn’t part of internal activity. Lark Mail makes this easier by automatically tying emails to tasks and data. It makes sure that the team gets all of the messages from clients and partners right immediately.
- Inboxes that everyone can see: Work together to keep track of emails so that everyone knows what they need to do.
- Intelligent filtering: Show essential questions automatically so you can answer them quickly.
- Making tasks out of emails: You can turn emails from outside into tasks with only one click.
- Linked records: You can connect critical emails right to Base or Tasks.
- Continuity across roles: Make sure that talks stay open even when people leave.
Lark OKR: Automating alignment with strategic goals
When teams link their regular duties to bigger goals, they produce better work. But keeping track of this by hand makes the bond weaker. Lark OKR makes it easy for everyone to be on the same page because it instantly connects individual effort to company-wide goals.
- Clear goals: Everyone on the team should be able to see the goals without anyone having to tell them.
- Automatically keeping track of progress: When you finish a task, update your OKRs right away.
- Dashboards for alignment: Show how your daily work helps you attain broader goals.
- Cross-team visibility: Show how different teams need each other to keep them from functioning in silos.
- Dynamic adjustments: Leaders should be able to shift their aims swiftly when things change.
In short, automation changes the way teams work together by getting rid of the things that slow them down. Lark helps people work together and get more done by keeping track of their work, making tasks more accountable, automating data insights, making it easier to access information, connecting communication, and making sure that work is in line with strategy.
The end result is not only speedier work, but also a better method of working that lets automation help creativity and productivity work together. Automation is not a luxury in the corporate world where speed is crucial; it is the key to long-term success.
