Non-tech teams cannot automate follow-ups when clients miss response deadlines

Team members manually send reminder emails or Slack messages when clients don't respond within expected timeframes, creating frustration and inconsistent follow-up. Existing project tools offer basic notifications but lack intelligent reminder logic (e.g., escalate if approval pending for 3+ days). This stalls projects and introduces human error.
