How to Use ClickUp AI for Multi‑Project Progress Summaries

ClickUp provides an AI-powered Multi‑project progress summary agent that helps you create clear, consistent status reports across many related projects in just a few clicks.

This guide walks you through how to access, configure, and use the Multi‑project progress summary agent so you can quickly brief stakeholders on everything happening across your workspace.

What the ClickUp Multi‑Project Progress Summary Agent Does

The Multi‑project progress summary AI agent in ClickUp is designed to save you time when you manage multiple initiatives or workstreams at once.

With this agent, you can:

• Generate a concise summary of progress across several projects at the same time.
• Highlight key updates, blockers, and next steps for each included project.
• Quickly prepare stakeholder-ready reports without manual copy and paste.
• Standardize how you communicate project status across your team.

Because the agent is built into ClickUp, it can read project data directly from your workspace and produce a tailored summary using that context.

Where to Find the ClickUp Multi‑Project Summary Agent

The Multi‑project progress summary agent is one of the ready-made AI agents inside ClickUp. It is available from the AI panel in supported views where you manage tasks and projects.

Typical entry points include:

• The AI toolbar in your task lists or project views.
• The AI sidebar where you can browse available agents.
• Any AI action menu offering project or reporting helpers.

Once open, you can select the Multi‑project progress summary agent from the list of AI agents to start generating your report.

Preparing Your Workspace for the ClickUp Agent

To get the best results from the Multi‑project progress summary agent in ClickUp, organize your projects so the AI can clearly understand what to summarize.

Before you run the agent, make sure that:

• Your projects or initiatives are grouped in a logical way, such as by Folder, Space, or tags.
• Tasks include meaningful titles and up-to-date statuses.
• Key milestones, due dates, and owners are filled in.
• Any critical information is captured in task descriptions or custom fields.

Good structure in ClickUp makes it easier for the AI agent to detect progress, risks, and upcoming work items.

How to Run a Multi‑Project Progress Summary in ClickUp

Use the following steps to generate your first multi‑project overview with the AI agent.

Step 1: Open the ClickUp AI Panel

1. Navigate to the part of ClickUp where your projects are managed, such as a list or project overview.
2. Open the AI panel or toolbar from the page interface.
3. Browse the available AI agents and select the Multi‑project progress summary agent.

Step 2: Choose the Projects to Include

When the agent opens, you will be prompted to define the scope of the summary. Depending on your workspace structure, you may be able to select:

• Specific Folders or Spaces that represent projects.
• Multiple lists corresponding to different streams of work.
• Filtered sets of tasks that match particular criteria, such as a sprint or release.

Select all relevant items so the ClickUp AI agent understands which work it should analyze.

Step 3: Set the Reporting Period

Next, define the time frame for the progress summary. Common options include:

• Last 7 days (for weekly updates).
• Last 30 days (for monthly reviews).
• Custom date ranges that align to your reporting cycles.

The agent will look at activity and changes within this period to describe how each project has moved forward.

Step 4: Add Context for Stakeholders

You can improve the quality of the output by giving the ClickUp AI agent additional context. For example, you may provide:

• Who the target audience is (executives, clients, or internal team members).
• The level of detail you want (high-level overview vs. deep dive).
• Any special focus areas (risks, blockers, or upcoming deadlines).

Supplying clear instructions helps the agent match the tone and depth of your typical status reports.

Step 5: Generate the Multi‑Project Summary

After the scope and context are set, trigger the AI generation. The agent will:

1. Scan project and task data in the selected scope.
2. Identify key progress, recent changes, and important milestones.
3. Organize findings into a readable multi‑project narrative.

Within moments, you will receive a draft summary that covers all selected projects in a unified report.

Reviewing and Editing the ClickUp AI Output

Even though the AI agent in ClickUp creates a strong first draft, you should always review the summary before sending it to stakeholders.

Focus on the following checks:

• Accuracy of dates, deliverables, and project names.
• Correct representation of progress, including any delays.
• Alignment with how your organization normally talks about projects.
• Clarity for the intended audience.

You can edit the text directly in ClickUp, refine sections, or ask the AI agent to adjust tone, length, or structure based on your feedback.

Sharing Your Multi‑Project Summary from ClickUp

Once you are satisfied with the summary, you can share it using existing collaboration features in ClickUp.

Typical options include:

• Posting the summary as a comment on a key task or project hub.
• Saving it in a document and sharing the link with your team.
• Copying the summary into an email or chat message for external stakeholders.
• Attaching the summary to recurring status meetings or standups.

Because the Multi‑project progress summary agent is part of the same platform, updating future reports is as simple as running the agent again with a new date range.

Best Practices for Using ClickUp AI Agents

To consistently get high-value results from the multi‑project summary agent in ClickUp, keep these best practices in mind:

• Maintain clean and current task data so the agent has accurate information.
• Use consistent naming conventions for projects and lists.
• Define clear owners and due dates to surface accountability in the summaries.
• Regularly refine your prompts to the AI agent to match your reporting style.

Over time, this will help you build a repeatable reporting process powered by ClickUp AI.
