Ask HN: Are you still exporting PDFs and copy‑pasting between your tools?

1•velyan•1h ago
I see this in my own workflow all the time: • Exporting a Notion page to Google Docs/Word because reviewers insist on .docx, then re‑attaching a PDF for email. • Copy‑pasting decisions from Slack into Jira/Asana or summarising chat threads into Notion so context isn’t lost. • Manually downloading receipts from emails and entering them into a spreadsheet at month‑end. • Digging through Gmail/Calendar/Docs/Slack to prep for a meeting because context is scattered everywhere.

I’m curious how others handle this. Do you use automations (Zapier/Apple Shortcuts/etc.), or do you just live with the friction? Does app overload and constant format conversion slow you down, or is it a minor annoyance?

Would an on‑device assistant that can route files (e.g., GDocs→PDF→draft email), sync context to your notes, and prep meeting packets actually help, or is the problem overstated?

Would love to hear concrete examples of what’s painful, what’s working, and what you wish existed.
