Monday.com already gives teams a solid structure for organizing projects, but the real efficiency gains show up when you layer AI on top of it. The right AI tools can automate updates, reduce manual data entry, classify work, summarize information, and help teams operate with fewer bottlenecks. The tools below integrate with Monday.com either natively or through simple automation layers, and each one targets a specific type of workflow improvement.

Let’s walk through the seven that are actually worth your time.

1. Monday AI

It makes sense to start with the built-in option. Monday AI is designed to automate repetitive work across boards. You can generate summaries of long project updates, classify incoming tasks, rewrite descriptions for clarity, and ask the Sidekick assistant to perform quick actions.

What it is good for

• Auto-summarizing status updates
• Cleaning up task descriptions
• Classifying or tagging work
• Helping non-technical users automate basic steps

Watch out for
The value depends on how much of your team’s work already lives inside Monday. If people are still doing updates in Slack or meetings instead of inside boards, the benefit shrinks.

2. Fellow (AI Meeting Assistant)

Fellow is the secure AI meeting assistant and notetaker that integrates with Monday to automate moving meeting insights directly into project boards. If your projects depend on cross-functional alignment, customer feedback, or weekly check-ins, this connection saves time.

The Monday.com integration keeps action items captured in Fellow in sync with your boards, turning meeting decisions into trackable work without manual copying. Tasks update in both tools automatically, so every stakeholder sees the same list of priorities.

What it is good for

• Turning meeting transcripts and summaries into Monday board updates
• Capturing action items automatically and syncing them with owners
• Giving teams one source of truth instead of scattered notes
• Ensuring decisions and follow-ups never disappear

Watch out for
Fellow focuses on accuracy, security, and admin controls. That is an advantage if you handle sensitive information, but it means it does not operate like a loose, lightweight notetaker. It is more structured, so teams need to use it consistently.

3. AI by Zapier

Zapier’s AI features add intelligent steps into automations. You can take Monday item updates, run text through an AI transform, and return structured or rewritten output back into Monday.

What it is good for

• Automatically rewriting messy task descriptions
• Converting unstructured notes into structured fields
• Tagging or categorizing items based on text
• Summarizing long updates before pushing them into dashboards

Watch out for
Costs scale with volume. If you run dozens of AI actions per item per board, expect usage spikes. Keep the automations tight.

4. Make AI Toolkit

Make’s AI modules go further than Zapier for multi-step workflows. It handles sentiment detection, classification, translation, and text generation with more control.

What it is good for

• Processing large amounts of project updates
• Running complex sequences like “summarize, classify, then route to the correct board”
• Integrations across many apps without engineering help
• Handling repetitive cross-tool workflows

Watch out for
Make requires more setup. It is powerful, but you need someone willing to maintain workflows or they will break quietly.

5. One AI

One AI specializes in language processing. It can extract entities, themes, action items, or structured details from raw text, then send the output into Monday.

What it is good for

• Extracting key points from long requirements documents
• Pulling action items out of status updates
• Detecting themes or patterns in customer feedback
• Creating structured summaries for sprint planning

Watch out for
Accuracy varies depending on input format. Unstructured text produces less reliable results, so you may need some light cleanup before feeding data into the model.

6. Browse AI

Browse AI is a web automation and scraping tool that can monitor sites and convert data into Monday items through automations.

What it is good for

• Monitoring competitor sites
• Tracking product changes, pricing pages, or updates
• Collecting market data and pushing it into dashboards
• Keeping sales or marketing boards up to date without manual research

Watch out for
Scraping tasks break often when websites change structure. This is normal, but you need to maintain them.

FAQ

What types of AI tools integrate best with Monday.com?

Tools that transform unstructured text into structured data perform well. Monday is built around structured boards, so AI that turns updates, notes, or insights into fields or tasks gives the biggest lift.

Do I need technical skills to set up these integrations?

For most of these, no. Zapier, Make, and Monday’s native features rely on visual builders. Complex workflows can require testing and iteration, but no coding is needed.

Is it safe to connect external AI tools to Monday.com?

It depends on the vendor. Some tools have strict security controls, while others are looser. If you handle sensitive information or regulated data, pick tools with clear admin controls and transparent retention policies.

Will AI automations replace manual project updates completely?

Not entirely. AI can summarize, classify, and route information, but teams still need to provide context, decisions, and approvals. AI handles volume and repetition, not judgment.

What is the fastest workflow improvement for most teams?

Automating meeting summaries, status updates, or follow-up tasks into Monday tends to create the fastest visible ROI. It reduces the “forgotten action item” problem and keeps boards fresh without chasing people.
