A task is the core unit of work in Rocket. Every time you ask Rocket to research a market, build an app, or monitor a competitor, you are creating a task.

Task types

Rocket has three task types, each with its own workflow and output format. All three start the same way: describe what you need in plain language.

Solve

Strategic research. Ask a business question and get a structured report with data, insights, and recommendations.

Build

App creation. Describe a web app, mobile app, or website and Rocket generates production-ready code. Includes Redesign for transforming existing sites.

Intelligence

Continuous monitoring. Run the Intelligence setup once per workspace. Intelligence monitors your competitors and surfaces changes to the dashboard automatically.

Standalone vs. project tasks

Tasks exist in two ways:
  • Inside a project - grouped with related tasks that share context, files, and collaborators. Insights from one task are available to others in the same project. Solve and Build tasks can live in projects.
  • Standalone - created independently without a project. Useful for quick one-off research, experiments, or individual builds.
Intelligence is different from both. Running the Intelligence setup wizard is a one-time workspace setup, not a task you create repeatedly. Once approved, Intelligence monitors your competitors continuously at the workspace level. You manage competitors and view signals from the Intelligence panel in your sidebar, separate from any project.
If you are working on a larger initiative with multiple related tasks, use a project. For quick standalone questions or experiments, create a task directly.

Task lifecycle

Every task follows the same general flow:
1

Create

Start a new task from the home screen or within a project. Describe what you need in plain language: a business question, an app idea, or something to monitor.
2

Iterate

Review Rocket’s output and refine it through conversation. Ask follow-up questions, request changes, or provide additional context.
3

Ship

Use or share the result. Export a Solve report, deploy a Build app, or review Intelligence signals in the dashboard as they arrive.

Credit usage

All tasks consume credits based on complexity. Clear, specific prompts use fewer credits than vague requests.
Task typeCredit usage
SolveDepends on research depth and question complexity
BuildScales with app complexity and number of screens
IntelligenceBased on monitoring frequency and number of competitors tracked
