Abstract
A digital task document can include instructions for performing a task, and a task state data structure can indicate a state of completion of the task. A first update of the data structure can be performed in response to visual user input received from a user profile via a first computer application/device. A second update of the data structure can be performed in response to natural language input received from the user profile via the second computer application/device. A first set of task guidance can be provided to the user profile via the first application/device in a visual format by displaying the task document on a computer display. A second set of task guidance can be provided to the user profile via the second application/device in a natural language format. The first and second sets of task guidance can be provided using the task document and the data structure.
