How fast does the team respond? Here is what to expect for typical work:
- Astra reply in chat: seconds. A short reply lands almost immediately.
- Daily Update: once per reporting day when enabled; routine work is batched instead of pinged item by item.
- Research task: 5-20 minutes. Depends on depth — a full market sizing with citations is on the longer side.
- Content task: 5-30 minutes. A blog post or landing page is usually under 20.
- Coding task: 5-60 minutes. Includes build and deploy. Larger features take longer; the team will say so.
- Video task: 10 minutes to several hours. Code-rendered videos are fast. AI-generated clips take longer because the model itself runs for minutes per clip.
What about the first reply in a session? The first message after opening a fresh chat can take 5-30 seconds longer while the workspace warms up. This is one-time per visit, not per message.
What about multiple tasks at once? Astra can run independent Tasks and numbered child Tasks in parallel. If work takes notably longer than expected, Work shows the parent status and Astra summarizes what changed, what remains, and whether anything needs you.
