Rollwise updates a ClickUp parent task the moment its subtasks change. Status, hours and dates roll up, and a blocked subtask flags its parent. No AI guesswork and no Zapier chains: rules that run every time and never loop.
Works on every ClickUp plan. Leaves your ClickUp automation quota alone.
These are open requests on ClickUp's public feedback board. Today the answer is updating parents by hand, an AI agent that sometimes gets it wrong, or a chain of Zapier steps.
Sign in with ClickUp and choose the workspace. Rollwise listens only to the lists you pick.
Pick a ready-made rule for a list, such as "close the parent when every subtask is done", and the fields it should roll up.
Each update lands on the parent within a minute, and every change is logged with the rule that made it.
ClickUp's own automations act only on the task that changed, so a parent never hears about its subtasks. Rollwise fills that gap.
Any subtask started moves the parent to In progress. Every subtask closed closes the parent.
The sum, minimum or maximum of a number field, such as hours, budget or story points, written into the parent.
The parent starts with its earliest subtask and is due with its latest, at every level of nesting.
A blocked subtask flags its parent, so the problem is visible where people look.
Coming next: timers that count working hours and escalate, date math between fields, and keeping client folders in step with a master template.
ClickUp drops webhook deliveries it cannot send. Rollwise checks for missed changes every few minutes and catches up.
It knows which changes it made itself, so a parent update never sets off the rule again.
Every change is logged against its rule, and if something fails you see it on the task, not weeks later.
Rollwise works through ClickUp's public API, so your monthly automation actions stay yours.
An action is one change Rollwise makes to a task. Beta members get 30% off their first year.
All of them, Free included. Rollwise uses ClickUp's public API and webhooks, not its automations.
It recognises its own changes, and a rule that keeps flipping the same task is paused and reported on the task instead of running away.
Rollwise runs in the EU. It keeps a short log of task changes, 7 days, to make sure none is missed. Your ClickUp token is encrypted at rest.
No. Rollwise is an independent product by Code Pencil, the makers of Pagewright, built on ClickUp's public API.
Nothing per step. Many subtask changes in a burst become one update to the parent and count once.
