What it does.

The default landing zone for every new idea.

Clutter-free capture

Throw everything in the Inbox first. Sort it out later. The interface is clean and distracting elements fade away.

• Capture ideas the moment they hit you
• Stop worrying about forgetting things
• Decide what to do with them later, not now

Capture tasks from anywhere with a keyboard shortcut.

Never break your flow

A single keyboard shortcut brings up the Quick Add modal. Type your thought, hit Enter, and it's saved instantly.

• Stay in flow—don't switch windows to capture a thought
• Add details later when you have time
• Never lose an idea again

Markdown support for all your details.

Detail is in the details.

Paste code snippets, create lists, or write a mini-essay. The notes field expands to fit your thoughts.

• Keep all the context right where you need it
• Reference code, links, or instructions without leaving the task
• Format notes so they're actually readable

Interactive checkboxes right in your notes.

Break it down further

Sometimes a task needs a sub-list. Add `- [ ]` to your notes to create clickable checkboxes.

• Break big tasks into manageable steps
• See progress at a glance without opening the task
• Check things off as you go

Keep reference material close.

Everything in one place

Drag and drop images, PDFs, or documents directly onto a task. They sync across all your devices.

• Stop hunting for that PDF you need
• Reference materials travel with the task
• Access files from any device

Group tasks by finite goals.

Movable pieces

Projects hold tasks that share a goal. Drag tasks in and out, or reorder them to prioritize.

• See how close you are to finishing
• Reorganize your plan as priorities shift
• Know when things are due

High-level responsibilities like 'Work' or 'Home'.

The 10,000ft view

Areas contain projects and tasks. They represent the ongoing parts of your life that don't have a completion date.

• Keep related work together
• Hide entire chunks of your life when you're off the clock
• Find work stuff without wading through personal tasks

Cross-cutting context filters.

Hierarchical Context

Tags can be nested. Filter by @chores to see everything inside @chores/kitchen and @chores/garden.

• Filter once, see everything that matches
• Organize your way, not ours
• Find tasks by context, not just project

Mark what matters most.

Focus on the critical

Flag tasks to highlight them across all views. They bubble up to the top so you never miss a deadline.

• Important tasks stand out everywhere
• Spot your must-dos at a glance
• Quick to flag, quick to unflag

Nest tasks infinitely.

Complex tasks made simple

Turn any task into a parent. Collapse trees to focus or expand to see the nitty-gritty details.

• Handle complex work without losing the big picture
• Know when a parent task is truly done
• Move entire chunks of work at once

Intuitive reorganization.

Feel your plan

Everything is draggable. Move tasks between projects, rescheduled them on the calendar, or change their priority manually.

• Reorganize your plan in seconds
• Move multiple tasks at once when priorities change
• Put things where they belong without hunting through menus

Someday, Waiting, Delegated.

Not everything is 'Now'

Park tasks in 'Someday' to hide them from your daily lists, or mark them 'Waiting' if you're blocked.

• Focus on what's actionable right now
• Revisit parked ideas without cluttering your day
• Work the way that makes sense for you

See what's coming up this week.

No surprises

A linear view of the days ahead. See where your bottlenecks are and drag tasks to reschedule.

• Never get blindsided by a deadline
• Spot overloaded days before they happen
• Reschedule with a simple drag

Powerful repetition rules.

Set and forget

"Every Monday", "Last day of the month", or "3 days after completion". We handle the complex schedule logic for you.

• Build habits that stick
• Handle the quirky schedules life throws at you
• Take a break without breaking your streaks

Keep your sanity with a regular check-in.

Stay trusted

The "Review" perspective walks you through your open loops ensuring nothing slips through.

• Start each week with a clear head

Save custom filters as smart lists.

Smart views

Focus on what's important. Create a collection for "Work tasks due this week tagged High Priority".

• Stop rebuilding the same filter every time
• One click to see exactly what you need
• Lists update automatically as tasks change

Progress isn't binary.

Chip away at it

Use a modifier-click on a checkbox to mark it partially done. Perfect for when you started something but didn't finish.

• Feel good about progress even when something isn't 'done'
• Know at a glance what's been started
• Focus on what still needs attention

Instantly narrow down any view.

• See patterns in your productivity
• Undo accidental checkoffs anytime

Themes, fonts, density, alignment.

Your workspace, your rules

• Work in a space that feels like yours
• Reduce eye strain with fonts that work for you
