What is a Basecamp AI employee?
A Basecamp AI employee is an AI that connects to your Basecamp account and completes work in it. Superkind creates to-dos, checks project status, publishes Message Board posts, and keeps track of Schedule Entries. Superkind builds the AI employee with your company knowledge and delivers finished results wherever your team works.
Unlike Zapier or Make, there is nothing to configure. You describe the outcome in plain English, Superkind picks the right Basecamp actions, chains them with your other systems, and asks for your approval before sensitive steps.
Basecamp is a project collaboration platform with to-dos, Message Boards, Campfire chats, schedules, and Docs & Files.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about your AI employee for Basecamp.
Yes. Superkind connects to your Basecamp account through a managed connector. Your team can then ask the AI employee to complete Basecamp work from Teams or Outlook. Superkind only uses the agreed Projects and permissions. There is no workflow builder or extra code for your team to maintain.
An admin signs in to Basecamp and approves access to the required Projects. Superkind then checks which tools, including To-dos, Message Board, Campfire, and Schedule, are enabled there. We set up the connection with you. Afterwards, the team can give the AI employee tasks directly from Teams or Outlook.
The AI employee can read Projects and Recordings, search, create, and complete To-dos, prepare Message Board posts, add Comments, and maintain Schedule Entries. It can also analyse Campfire history and include information from Docs & Files. We define the actions your team needs for its specific use case during onboarding.
No. With Zapier or Make, you build triggers, conditions, and individual steps and maintain them when something changes. With Superkind, you describe the outcome in plain English. Superkind picks the right Basecamp actions, connects them with Teams, Outlook, or other systems when needed, and asks questions if important details are missing.
Only with your approval. Superkind can read information, summarise status, and prepare drafts without asking every time. Before completing a To-do, publishing a Message Board post, or changing a Schedule Entry, Superkind waits for a responsible person to approve the action. Your team decides which Basecamp actions count as sensitive.
Superkind is hosted in the EU, and we sign a GDPR data processing agreement. The AI employee receives only the minimum permissions required for the agreed Basecamp Projects. Your data is not used for model training. Access and completed actions are logged so your team can always trace what Superkind read or changed.
Basecamp offers Pro from about 100 US dollars per month and Unlimited in the low hundreds of euros per month. Zapier starts at about 20 euros per month and Make at about 10 euros per month, both plus setup time and ongoing maintenance. Superkind is priced per use case, a fraction of a full-time employee.
