HyperDone Integration

ApproveThis manages your HyperDone Integration approvals.

Integration Category: Team Collaboration

Two Tools, One Goal

HyperDone helps teams organize tasks. ApproveThis makes decisions happen faster. When connected through Zapier, they create a complete system for getting work done and getting it approved. This isn't just about moving data between apps – it's about closing the gap between doing work and officially sanctioning it.

Consider how marketing agencies juggle client approvals, or how manufacturing teams verify quality checks. These processes often live in separate silos. By connecting HyperDone's task management with ApproveThis' structured approvals, teams can:

  • Automatically trigger reviews when work is completed
  • Keep decision-makers in the loop without manual updates

The real advantage? ApproveThis doesn't require approvers to have HyperDone licenses. Clients, contractors, or executives can review requests directly via email while your team keeps working in HyperDone.

Four Ways Teams Use This Integration

1. Quality Control for Completed Work

How it works: When tasks move to "Done" in HyperDone, ApproveThis automatically creates review requests.

Real-world example: A construction firm uses this to verify completed site inspections. Supervisors receive email approvals with photos and checklists attached. Approved reports auto-sync to their project management system.

ApproveThis bonus: Approval thresholds automatically escalate safety issues to senior managers if inspection scores fall below 85%.

2. Pre-Approval for Critical Tasks

How it works: New HyperDone tasks in high-stakes categories (budget spends, legal reviews) trigger approval requests before work begins.

Real-world example: A software company requires architecture reviews before coding starts. Developers create tasks in HyperDone's "Technical Planning" column, which routes approval requests to lead engineers through ApproveThis.

ApproveThis bonus: Vacation delegation ensures requests never stall if primary approvers are out.

3. Post-Approval Task Creation

How it works: Approved requests in ApproveThis automatically generate follow-up tasks in HyperDone.

Real-world example: A consulting firm uses this to convert client-approved proposals into project plans. Approved contracts in ApproveThis create detailed HyperDone tasks with deadlines pulled from the proposal terms.

4. Two-Way Status Sync

How it works: Approval decisions update HyperDone task statuses, while task completions trigger new approvals – creating a closed-loop system.

Real-world example: Healthcare providers track equipment maintenance this way. Completed service tasks in HyperDone trigger compliance approvals, which when approved, auto-close the maintenance ticket.

Setting Up the Connection

1. Create a Zapier account if you don't have one
2. Choose your trigger (HyperDone task event or ApproveThis request)
3. Map critical data fields between apps:
- HyperDone task descriptions → ApproveThis request details
- ApproveThis decision comments → HyperDone task notes
4. Test with low-stakes workflows first (e.g., office supply requests)

Most teams spend 15-20 minutes on initial setup. The key is clearly defining which tasks need approvals and who should decide.

Who Benefits Most?

Project Managers

Gain real-time visibility into both task progress and approval status through the ApproveThis dashboard. Built-in escalation rules prevent bottlenecks when approvers are delayed.

Finance Teams

ApproveThis' calculated fields automatically validate budget math in purchase requests. When integrated with HyperDone, this ensures all spending tasks have pre-approved amounts before execution.

Client-Facing Teams

External stakeholders can approve deliverables via email without HyperDone access. Approval timelines are automatically logged for compliance reporting.

Operations Leaders

Combine HyperDone's task completion rates with ApproveThis' approval cycle times to identify process bottlenecks. One logistics company reduced equipment purchase delays by 40% using these combined metrics.

Why This Beats Manual Processes

Traditional approval methods create version control issues and communication gaps. A manufacturing quality team reported 90% fewer "I thought you approved that" emails after implementing this integration. The secret isn't automation alone – it's creating a single record of what was done and who approved it.

ApproveThis adds structure to HyperDone's flexibility. While HyperDone excels at tracking what needs doing, ApproveThis ensures how it gets done follows company rules. Together, they help scaling businesses maintain control without sacrificing speed.

Getting Started

1. Sign up for ApproveThis
2. Connect your existing HyperDone account via Zapier
3. Implement one high-impact workflow first (client approvals, purchase orders, etc.)

Most teams see ROI within two billing cycles. The key is starting simple – automate a single approval process, then expand as confidence grows.

Final Tip: Think Beyond Tasks

While we've focused on HyperDone tasks, remember ApproveThis integrates with 500+ other apps through Zapier. A common progression:
1. Start with HyperDone task approvals
2. Add document approvals from cloud storage
3. Connect to accounting software for purchase order automation

This creates an enterprise-grade approval system without enterprise complexity. The goal isn't to approve everything – it's to approve the right things, at the right time, with minimal friction.
