Type a task. The AI instantly categorizes it, estimates the time, plans your day around your real capacity, and learns from every correction. Zero setup. Zero overhead. It just gets smarter.
Most to-do apps give you an empty list and expect you to do all the work — creating projects, setting labels, assigning priorities, organizing into folders. The overhead of maintaining the system becomes a task in itself. So you stop using it.
Other apps make you create projects, labels, and categories before you can even add a task. That's backwards.
Competitors bolt AI onto existing products. It's a feature you opt into, not the foundation of how the app works.
Correct a category once and the same mistake happens again tomorrow. No other app remembers your preferences.
Type it the way it comes out of your head. Half a sentence, a question, a maybe, the list somebody texted you. The AI reads every line, turns the tasks into tasks with a category, a due date and a time estimate, and files the notes, ideas and questions where they belong.
It reads as you type: each line shows up underneath as a task, a note, an idea or a question, with its time and its day. Add a few at once and you see every one before anything lands, so a wrong date or category is one tap to fix. It even catches the task you already have.
Four lines in, sorted. A task with its time and its day, an idea clipped to it, a question kept for later, and a task filed under Work — each one yours to change before it lands.
There's nothing to set up and nothing to tap. Every task gets a ♥ score from what it costs to leave undone, when it's due, how long it really takes and what it unblocks. Then the AI places your week against the hours you actually have, less your meetings, and tells you the minute you'll be free. Open the app and the one thing worth doing now is on top, with why. Didn't finish? Tomorrow picks it up.
You may have tried the popular planning methods. Each one is a fixed rule, and none of them can see the hours you actually have:
A quick win with a real deadline beats a two-hour maybe. A list of twelve becomes a day you can finish, and the minute you'll be free. Clear it, and it tells you you're done.
See your day planned, free
Twelve tasks in. Free at 4:00pm. The one worth doing now comes first, with why — and the rest of the day is on the clock, inside the hours you really have.
Every estimate starts from what people like you took, then learns from you. Finish a task and it asks how long that really took. One tap, and the next estimate for that kind of work moves.
Your Daily Budget learns the same way: how many productive hours a Tuesday actually holds for you, not the eight on paper. Tick something off and the minute you're free moves with it, so the plan is always what's left from now, never what was true at breakfast.
So the day it plans is one you can finish. Finish it and it says so. Close the app. The rest of the day is yours.
One tap says how long it really took. The next estimate for that kind of work learns from it.
Every feature is designed around one principle: make the AI handle the organization so you can focus on your actual life.
Type "walk the dog" and the AI tags it as Pet Care, Personal bucket, 20 minutes, low effort. 25+ life categories, zero configuration.
Every correction trains the AI. Move "standup" from Work to Personal a few times and it writes itself a rule. View, lock or edit the AI's rules anytime — full transparency.
There's no plan to make. It places the week against the hours you actually have — weekday vs. weekend, work vs. your own time, less your meetings — and tells you the minute you'll be free. Got a gap? It fills that too. And a day off stays off: nothing lands on it unless you say so, and you choose whether it's work or just your own things.
AI weighs urgency, effort, due date proximity, and dependencies to surface what matters most — per bucket or globally across your entire list.
Full date picker and recurring tasks with NLP parsing. Say "pay rent every 1st" and it just works — daily, weekly, monthly, yearly. A date is never invented: it's the one you typed or the one you set.
Type it, say it, paste a brain dump, snap a list or add a picture. Everything goes through one Add that tells a task from a note, an idea or a question, reads each line as you type and shows you what it decided before anything lands.
A note clips to the task it belongs to, an idea can become a task with one tap, and a question waits until you answer it. Every bucket holds notes as well as tasks, so there's nothing to set up.
Pick a moment and get a nudge, on your phone or in the app. A reminder is its own time, separate from the due date, so Thursday at nine means Thursday at nine. Tonight, tomorrow and next week are one tap.
Widgets put what's up next on your home screen with a Done button, a Live Activity keeps the clock on your lock screen while you're locked in, and a morning brief at 8:30 tells you the day before you open the app. The Live Activity stays off until you switch it on.
Complex tasks split into steps, in order, each one estimated. "Clean the house and do laundry" becomes separate, properly estimated tasks — one tap.
See the exact rules the AI uses, in plain sentences. Write your own — type "anything that says Harsh and one on one is important and quick and goes in Work" straight into Add — and it's checked first on everything you add, with one tap to apply it to the tasks you already have. Lock the ones you want kept. No other task app lets you look under the hood.
Start lean, then make it yours — rename, recolor, remove, or create your own categories. The AI learns each one and routes new tasks to it automatically. Your taxonomy, your way.
Goals and habits live together in Heartbeat. The AI links each task to the goal it belongs to — and asks when it isn't sure — so the right work gets a priority boost; give a list an outcome and it becomes a dated goal. A habit lands on your day at the time you usually do it, with no guilt for a missed day.
Forward an email to your own address and it lands in your Inbox as tasks, notes and questions — your action items first, anyone else's set aside — for you to approve in one tap, or automatically if you'd rather.
Connect Claude, ChatGPT or another assistant once and ask it to add things, tell you what's next or tick off what's done — every add is read with your own rules, buckets and estimates. There's an API for your own scripts, Google Assistant adds on Android, and Siri brain dumps without opening the app when the iPhone app lands. How to connect
Calendar import, so the meetings you already have count against your day. It's in the works, and your account gets it the day it lands.
"Schedule dentist appointment next Tuesday" — dates, recurrence and context are parsed automatically. A note or an idea lands where it belongs, too.
Category, bucket, time estimate, effort, how soon, the day it lands — all worked out instantly. No dropdowns, no menus.
Make a correction and the AI remembers. Your task app gets smarter every single day you use it.
