checkl is the checklist app that actually makes sure things get done. Add optional AI visual validation to any checklist item. Snap a photo of the stove, the front door, or the lights — and AI confirms it's actually off, locked, or done. Every verification is timestamped and logged so you have proof you can look back on. No more second-guessing whether you turned off the stove or locked the door when leaving home. SMART SCHEDULES Three schedule types built for real life: • One-time: check items off and archive when done. Perfect for projects, packing lists, or errands. • Recurring: auto-resets daily, weekly, or on a custom schedule. Your morning routine is ready every single day. • Deadline: countdown to a date you set. Auto-archives when it passes. AI VISUAL VALIDATION Only in checkl. Point your camera at any item and AI validates it against your rules. Stove off? Door locked? Windows closed? Get a green checkmark with a confidence score, timestamped and saved. AUTO-RESET Recurring checklists reset automatically on schedule. Complete your "Leaving home" checklist today — it's fresh and ready tomorrow morning. No manual reset needed.
