Double review

Double pairs clients with dedicated human assistants for recurring administrative work, while its software handles task handoffs, instructions and hour tracking. This is not just a task manager: the service includes the person doing the work, with support for calendars, inbox scheduling, travel, expenses, meeting preparation and research.

The workspace gives each task its own chat, with voice notes, priorities, deadlines and delegation templates. Executive profiles store company background, preferences and recurring instructions, so clients can reuse context instead of explaining the same things each time. Mingo, Double’s AI delegation companion, helps clarify requests and gives assistants shortcuts for research, drafting and execution.

Double also reports assistant time by project, sends usage alerts and provides weekly progress digests. The basic proposition is straightforward: pay for a set number of human-assistant hours each month, then use Double’s tools to direct and monitor that work.

Double’s main advantage is combining human execution with software for handing work off. A task workspace with chat, voice notes, deadlines and priorities gives clients more structure than sending requests through an ordinary inbox. Templates and executive profiles can also preserve repeat instructions and preferences, which matters when administrative tasks recur.

The service covers a useful range of executive support: calendar and inbox scheduling, travel, expenses, meeting preparation and research. Dedicated assistants are matched based on location, industry and working style, according to the product description. That is a better fit for ongoing support than buying a generic automation tool and building every process yourself.

Mingo is positioned as support for delegation rather than a replacement for the assistant. It can help clarify requests and assist with research, drafting and execution. Time reporting adds another practical control: clients can see hours by project, get usage alerts and receive weekly progress digests.

The included hours are shareable on the higher plans. Grow starts at $999 per month for 20 hours, while Build is $1,899 for 40 and Scale is $2,799 for 60. That makes Double easier to consider when several executives can use the same assistant capacity.

The cost is the obvious trade-off. Starter is $549 per month for 10 hours, which works out to $54.90 per included hour. Grow is $999 for 20 hours, or about $49.95 per hour; Build is $1,899 for 40, or about $47.48; and Scale is $2,799 for 60, or $46.65. Those are calculated rates based on each plan’s included hours, not separate published hourly prices.

The hours are tight for the monthly spend. Starter allows sharing with only one teammate or family member; it is not a pool for a larger team. Grow, Build and Scale allow sharing between multiple executives, but their included capacity is still capped at 20, 40 and 60 hours per month. Additional hours cost $75 each, according to the listed pricing.

Annual-billing prices are not published, and a free trial is not listed. Double also does not publish a free plan. If you need occasional help, or want software without paying for human support, the monthly commitment may be hard to justify. We would compare the hours you expect to delegate against the plan caps before switching from an assistant, freelancer or existing workflow.

Double lists four monthly plans, starting at $549. Starter is $549 per month for 10 hours, shareable with one teammate or family member. Grow costs $999 for 20 hours; Build is $1,899 for 40 hours; Scale is $2,799 for 60 hours. The jump from Starter to Grow is $450 a month, then Build and Scale each add another $900. Hours can be shared among multiple executives on Grow, Build and Scale, according to the pricing details.

Extra time costs $75 per hour, so going over your allowance can add up quickly. The listed plans do not include a free plan, and a free trial is not published. Prices are monthly; Double does not publish annual-billing prices. That makes the full-year cost and any annual discount impossible to compare from the available pricing. The key trade-off is clear: higher tiers add hours, but even Scale is capped at 60 monthly hours.

Switching to Double means handing recurring administrative work to a dedicated human assistant, with software for task handoffs, preferences and time tracking. Before moving work over, gather recurring instructions, company background, calendar rules and any open task details. Double’s executive profiles are designed to retain preferences and instructions, but the available information does not say whether another service’s data can be imported.

Leaving may take more than replacing a task app: you will need to reassign the work your assistant handles and transfer useful context to whoever takes it on. Double’s public information here does not specify data-export options, migration support, integrations or an account-termination process. Ask about those before committing, especially if you rely on saved instructions or task history. The monthly hour caps and $75 additional-hour charge may also prompt a move if your workload grows. We don’t have Reddit reports in the published material, so we can’t attribute common reasons for leaving to users.
