Your First Work Log
Create a complete daily work entry step by step
Last updated 2026-11-01
A work log is the basic unit of Opzello. Reports and AI answers are built from these entries.
To create one, click the + button in the top bar and choose Log Work, or open Work Logs → Daily and click Add Entry. The New Log Entry panel opens.
Fill in the form
- Role — the buttons at the top show your work roles. Pick the one this work belongs to.
- Logging for: — the date of the work. It starts on today (or on the day you were looking at).
- Category — the type of work. Pick a suggestion or type your own. Required.
- Title — a short description of what you did. Required.
- Description — more detail, if you want it.
- Results & Metrics — numbers or results, for example "CTR 3.2%, 45 clicks, 2 sales". The more detail here, the better the AI analysis.
- Hours — the time you spent. It must be more than zero.
- Status — Done, In Progress, Blocked or Cancelled.
- Tags — type a tag and press Enter.
- Link to Goal (optional) — shows when you have active goals.
Click Save Entry. To keep an unfinished entry, click Save Draft.
Smart Paste
Already wrote about the work somewhere else? Click Smart Paste at the top of the form, paste the text (a chat message, an email, a meeting note) and click Extract →. The AI fills in the fields it can find — such as the title, category, role, hours, status, description and results. Check them before you save.
Use the timer
Instead of typing hours, click Track time instead in the form, or click the timer button in the top bar to start a timer. When you are done, open the timer and click Stop & Log. The form opens with the time already filled in. Check the title and category, then save.
After saving
The entry shows in your daily, weekly and monthly views right away. To change or remove an entry later, use the edit or delete button on it.
Aim for steady logging, not perfect logging. One honest entry after each block of work is better than many entries at the end of the week.
