AskTodo is the to-do list that thinks with you. Life rarely arrives as a neat checklist. It comes as scattered thoughts, half-formed plans, quick reminders, errands, deadlines, appointments, chores, ideas, and “I’ll deal with this later” moments. AskTodo helps turn all of that into a clear plan. Just type what’s on your mind. AskTodo understands the messy version and helps shape it into organized tasks, schedules, and reminders, so you can move from “I need to figure this out” to “I know what to do next.” Planning should feel fast, natural, and almost effortless. With AskTodo, you do not have to stop and think about the perfect task title, date, time, category, or structure. You can write the way you think: “Dinner with Emma next Friday” “Buy eggs, milk, coffee, and paper towels tomorrow morning” “Submit the quarterly report before the 18th” “Remind me to book a dentist appointment next week” “Prepare slides, send agenda, and follow up after Monday’s client meeting” AskTodo takes your rough input and turns it into something tidy, useful, and ready to act on. Use it for everyday life: Plan grocery runs without rebuilding the same list every time. Keep track of bills, appointments, birthdays, and household tasks. Remember the small things that are easy to forget, like picking up dry cleaning, returning a package, or watering the plants. Break down weekend plans, family errands, travel prep, and personal goals into simple next steps. Use it for work: Capture tasks during a busy day before they disappear. Turn meetings into follow-ups, deadlines, and preparation lists. Stay ahead of reports, calls, client work, interviews, projects, and reviews. Keep your week moving without constantly reorganizing everything by hand. Use it when your brain is full: Drop in a messy thought and let AskTodo help clean it up. Separate what needs to happen today from what can wait. Turn vague intentions into concrete actions. Spend less time managing your list and more time actually doing the things on it. AskTodo is designed for people who want a smarter way to stay organized without turning planning into another job. It is quick enough for a passing thought, clear enough for a packed workday, and flexible enough for the way real life actually feels. Type messy, get tidy. AskTodo helps you: Create tasks quickly from natural language Organize errands, plans, work, and personal responsibilities Schedule deadlines, reminders, and future tasks Break larger ideas into manageable actions Keep your day, week, and life easier to scan Move from scattered thoughts to a calm, useful plan Whether you are managing a busy job, planning meals, juggling family life, keeping up with school, preparing for a trip, or simply trying to remember what you promised yourself you would do, AskTodo gives you a faster way to get it out of your head and into motion. Your list should not just hold tasks. It should help you think. AskTodo. Let AI plan it for you. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula
