Abstract

Methods and apparatus related to identifying a category for a task that is associated with a user and populating annotation fields related to the task based on the category of the task. The task and populated annotation fields may be provided for use by one or more application to provide a task completion step to the user. In some implementations, the category may be identified based on input from the user, documents of the user, and/or data that are associated with the user. In some implementations, a completion step for the task may be suggested to the user by an application that accesses the task and populated annotated information. In some implementations, multiple applications may suggest different completion steps to the user for the same task.
