Instead of “will do,” you can say I’m on it, absolutely, I’ll take care of it, consider it done, or I’ll handle it. The best wording depends on how strongly you want to signal agreement, action, or responsibility.

Absolutely
A confident, positive confirmation that works in both speech and informal work messages. Example: “Could you send the figures today?” “Absolutely.”
Of course
Polite and willing, especially when the request is straightforward. Example: “Please copy Sam into the reply.” “Of course.”
Sure thing
Friendly and informal, with a clear sense of agreement. Example: “Can you pick that up on your way?” “Sure thing.”
No problem
Casual reassurance that you are happy to do what was asked. Example: “Could you make one more change?” “No problem.”
I’m on it
Signals that you are taking action now or very soon. Example: “We need that error fixed.” “I’m on it.”
I’ll take care of it
Shows ownership and reassures the other person that they do not need to handle the task. Example: “Can someone organize the room?” “I’ll take care of it.”
Consider it done
Confident and upbeat, best when you are certain you can complete the task. Example: “Please book the table for six.” “Consider it done.”
I’ll handle it
Directly takes responsibility for the task or problem. Example: “Who can speak to the supplier?” “I’ll handle it.”
Leave it with me
Common in British English and professional conversation when you want someone to stop worrying about a task. Example: “Can you check why the invoice is wrong?” “Leave it with me.”
Got it
A concise acknowledgment that you understand the instruction; it can imply action but is slightly less explicit than “I’ll do it.” Example: “Please use the revised version.” “Got it.”
Sounds good
Confirms agreement with a plan rather than promising a specific action. Example: “Let’s send it tomorrow morning.” “Sounds good.”
Happy to
A warm way to accept a request, often followed by the task itself. Example: “Would you review this section?” “Happy to.”
I’ll make sure it’s done
A strong commitment that emphasizes completion, useful when the task matters or has a deadline. Example: “This needs to be ready by Friday.” “I’ll make sure it’s done.”
When “Will Do” Is Already the Best Choice
“Will do” is concise, natural, and perfectly acceptable in many workplace chats and emails. You only need an alternative when you want to sound warmer, more formal, or more explicit about taking responsibility.
For a task that is already underway, I’m on it is stronger. For clear ownership, choose I’ll handle it or I’ll take care of it.
