Record once, replay exactly
Hit Record and run the workflow a single time. AutoTask captures the order of actions, the mouse coordinates and the typing rhythm — press Play and it all happens again, the same way.
Type it once.
Run it a hundred times.
AutoTask records your mouse and keyboard on Windows, then replays every step exactly as it happened. In parameter mode, each row of your Excel file becomes one run with its own invoice number.

- No registry writes
- No network calls
Let the machine do the repetitive work
Four things AutoTask does well — and only those, to stay light.
Every Excel row is one run
Parameter mode: drop a .csv / .xlsx / .xls file onto the grid. Each column is a block to fill, each row is one playback. Invoice numbers, SKUs, emails — no retyping.
No install, no network calls
A single .exe that runs as-is — no .NET, no service, no registry writes, no data sent anywhere. Your recordings stay on your own machine.
Two hotkeys are all you need
F9 stops playback and rewinds to the start. F12 marks a block whose value should change. No syntax to memorise, no config files to edit.
Two modes, one switch
Fixed workflow? Use Normal. Batch runs with different data on every pass? Switch to Parameters.
Normal
Record it, replay it
For fixed workflows: open the app, fill a few fields, print, close. Record the sequence once and replay it whenever you need — even after a reboot.
- Keeps exact coordinates and timing
- The ✕ and Stop buttons never end up in the recording
- Saves automatically — reopen it and it's ready
Parameters
One sheet, many runs
For batch work: press F12 where a value changes, then load your sheet. AutoTask substitutes each row's values into the marked blocks and plays the whole sheet back.
- Reads .csv, .xlsx and .xls (even a file that's open in Excel)
- Grid columns match the columns of your file
- Incomplete rows are blocked with a clear message
Three steps to batch runs
- 1
Record the workflow
Press ● Record and do the workflow once. Wherever a value changes, press F12 to mark that block.
- 2
Load your data sheet
Drop an Excel/CSV file onto the Parameters grid. Each row is one run, each column is one F12 block.
- 3
Press Play and grab a coffee
AutoTask replays run after run at the pace you recorded. Press F9 whenever you need to stop.
Works on machines without internet. Everything stays local: recordings live in %LOCALAPPDATA%\AutoTask, with no uploads and no cloud sync.

Windows may warn you the first time you open it. The file isn't code-signed yet, so SmartScreen doesn't recognise it — click More info → Run anyway. If you downloaded it with a browser, right-click the file → Properties → tick Unblock.

Frequently asked questions
How is AutoTask different from TinyTask?+
AutoTask was inspired by TinyTask 1.77 but keeps only two jobs: record and play. It adds parameter mode for batch runs driven by Excel data, a tidier English interface, and ships self-contained so no .NET install is needed.
Why does Windows warn me when I open the file?+
The file isn't code-signed yet, so SmartScreen doesn't recognise it. On first launch click More info → Run anyway. If you downloaded it with a browser you may also need to unblock it: right-click the file → Properties → Unblock.
Is my data sent over the network?+
No. The app makes no network calls, writes no registry keys and runs no service. Recordings and parameter sheets live in %LOCALAPPDATA%\AutoTask on the machine you're using.
Can I use a recording on another machine?+
Yes. A .rec file is about 20 bytes per event, so you can copy it to another PC and use it there — as long as the target window sits in the same position, because AutoTask replays by absolute coordinates.
