Why Traditional AI Task Management Still Feels Broken

You brainstorm on ChatGPT, take notes in Notion, manage tasks in Todoist — but everything's scattered.

Ideas Never Become Action Items

You brainstorm amazing ideas on ChatGPT, then lose them in the chat history.

Research Gets Scattered

You research deeply — but your action items are scattered across notes, browsers, and docs.

Goals Stay Disconnected

You plan long-term goals, but daily tasks never align with them.

Productive Thinking, Overwhelmed Doing

You feel productive thinking, yet overwhelmed doing.

Multiple Tools Don't Talk

You use multiple tools — ChatGPT, Notion, Todoist, Reclaim — but none of them talk to each other.

More Organizing Than Doing

You spend more time organizing productivity than actually being productive.
