AI agents for Microsoft To Do
A Monmo agent keeps Microsoft To Do in step with your real week. Each morning it suggests what belongs in My Day, turns flagged Outlook emails into tasks that say what to do, breaks large tasks into steps, and runs a Friday review of what slipped. It can also keep a shared list, such as office supplies, current. It asks before it adds, completes or changes a task.

What agents do in Microsoft To Do
Suggest My Day each morning
At 8 every weekday it reads tasks due today, overdue and flagged, checks the free time in your Outlook calendar, and suggests five or six for My Day in a sensible order.
AskEvery weekday at 8, suggest what to put in My Day based on due dates and my free time.
Rewrite flagged emails as tasks
A flagged email shows up in To Do with the subject as its title, which rarely says what to do. It reads each one and proposes a clear title, a due date and a note with the key facts.
AskRewrite my flagged email tasks so each title says what I actually need to do, with a due date.
Break a task into steps
For a task such as 'renew the office lease' it adds the steps in order, such as finding the current terms, asking for quotes and booking the review, and works the dates back from the deadline.
AskAdd steps to 'Renew the office lease' working back from 31 January.
Capture actions from Teams meetings
After a meeting in Microsoft Teams it reads the minutes in OneNote or Microsoft Word, picks out the actions that are yours, and proposes each as a task in the right list with the meeting linked in the note.
AskAdd my actions from this morning's Teams meeting notes to my Work list with due dates.
Run the Friday review
Every Friday at 4 it lists what you completed, what is overdue and what has sat for a month untouched, and proposes a new date, a different list or removal for each. You approve in one go.
AskEvery Friday at 4, review my lists and propose what to reschedule, move or remove.
Keep a shared list current
For a list you share with the team or household, it adds items people mention in Outlook emails or Microsoft Teams chats, removes ones marked bought, and tells you what changed. Each edit waits for approval.
AskKeep the shared Office supplies list up to date from the requests in the office inbox.
Do the tasks it can
It reviews your lists for tasks it can finish itself, such as drafting a reply, comparing three suppliers or researching a trip, does the work and asks you to approve the result before marking them done.
AskGo through my To Do list, do anything you can like drafts and research, and show me before ticking them off.
How it connects
- 1You connect your own Microsoft account once, personal or work. The agent sees your lists and the lists others shared with you; flagged Outlook emails appear there only when your To Do settings show them.
- 2You choose which agents may use Microsoft To Do. A personal assistant or Chief of Staff agent is the usual owner; other agents can pass it actions to add.
- 3Reading lists and suggesting changes needs no approval. Adding, editing, completing, moving or deleting a task, and changing My Day, ask first, and one card can cover a whole review.

Questions people ask
Can an AI agent manage my Microsoft To Do list?
Yes, and you approve every change. A Monmo agent reads your lists, suggests My Day, rewrites flagged emails as clear tasks, adds steps and runs a weekly review. Additions, completions and deletions are shown on a card first, through the To Do connection, or in its own browser when the connection does not cover something.
Can an AI agent turn Outlook emails into To Do tasks?
Yes. The AI agent reads the emails you flag or point it to, works out what you agreed to do, and proposes a task with a clear title, a due date and the email linked. You approve the tasks before they are added.
What is the difference between Microsoft To Do and Planner?
Microsoft To Do is for your own tasks and small shared lists; Microsoft Planner is for team plans with buckets and assigned tasks. Tasks assigned to you in Planner can also appear in To Do. The agent works with both and keeps your own list in step with team plans.
Can several agents add tasks to my To Do list?
Yes, through one agent. Other agents hand their actions to the agent that owns your To Do list, which groups them and asks once. That keeps your list tidy and gives you one place to approve changes, instead of cards from several agents.
