Locu Public API

Locu's focus on professional users and developers is a major asset. To make the platform essential for complex workflows, it would be important to introduce a Public API.

An API would allow users to connect Locu with various tools, including AI assistants and custom scripts. This deep integration is key—once developers build their own connections, it makes the platform much stickier and harder to leave.

Here are the two essential functions needed for the first version of the API:

1. Add Task Endpoint

This endpoint should allow users to programmatically create new tasks and place them directly into a specific project's backlog.

• Goal: Enables integration with AI assistants and external automation tools, instantly turning external data or ideas into actionable tasks within Locu.

2. Get Time Entries Endpoint

This endpoint should allow users to retrieve recorded time entries from Locu.

• Goal: Makes it easy to sync time data with invoicing software or custom reports. The endpoint must support filtering by project and date range.

This simple API would open up Locu to a lot more power users and significantly boost its demand within the developer community.
