Ask HN: How do you track commitments you make to other people in conversation?

Not a to-do list — specifically the verbal kind. "I'll get back to you", "I'll send that over", "I'll make that intro." These don't make it into any system I've tried. Curious how people handle this.

Improve your memory if you don't want to write things down. Immediately draft emails for commitments you made.

I send them a chat message right then and there with the commitment I’m making as a shared TODO. I then have time blocked off to review from chats if there is anything I haven’t followed up on.

I have a shortcut to email myself. I do it on the spot.
