Your mental inbox for the day. Catchyt is the one place where your agenda, fleeting ideas, and tasks on hold coexist, without friction, without complexity. Not a task manager. Not a note-taking app. Something in between, and far simpler than both. Three objects. That’s all. AGENDA Your iCal events for the day, synced in real time. See what’s coming, add what’s missing, without leaving the app. CAPTURED A fleeting idea. A link you don’t want to lose. A photo of a receipt. Drop it here before it disappears. Text, links, images. Catchit accepts everything, asks nothing. ON HOLD Not a task you can schedule. Not a note. Just something you need to do, when the budget is right, when someone replies, when you find the time. It stays visible every day until it’s done. Why Catchyt ? Because you’re tired of switching between five apps just to stay on top of your day. Because the perfect productivity system is the one you actually use. Because sometimes you just need to drop it somewhere safe and move on. Catchyt is your digital catch-all tray. It holds the weight so you don’t have to. One-time purchase. No subscription. No ads. Yours forever. https://catchytapp.com/privacy.html

Talk, and Contextli writes it up. Speak an email, a chat reply or a quick note and get clean, ready-to-send text on your clipboard in seconds. Contextli is AI voice dictation for people who think faster than they type. It removes the ums and repeats, fixes grammar and punctuation, and shapes your words for where they are going: a professional email, a casual message or a tidy note. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Type by voice in any app. Turn on the Contextli keyboard, tap its mic, speak, and the finished text is typed right where your cursor was. - Reply to emails by voice. Say what you mean in your own words and get a polished email back. - Answer messages faster. Short, casual text that is ready for Slack, WhatsApp or Teams. - Capture notes and ideas. Every dictation is saved, searchable and ready to copy again. - Dictate in the language you speak. Set a spoken language for each context. - Get a word-for-word transcript when you want one. Raw Transcription gives you plain speech to text with no AI rewrite. WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT - Contexts. Pick Email, Slack or Instant Messaging, or write your own rules in plain English, like "warm, under five sentences, sign off with my name". Contextli follows them every time. - Hands free. Say "Hey Siri, dictate with Contextli", or set up Back Tap and double-tap the back of your iPhone. - Your dictionary. Teach it names, acronyms and phrases once and they come out right. - Instant copy. The text is on your clipboard the moment it is ready. Switch apps and paste. - One account everywhere. Use the same contexts and notes in the Contextli desktop app and browser extension. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap the mic in the app or on the Contextli keyboard, or ask Siri. 2. Speak naturally. 3. Paste polished text anywhere. QUESTIONS Does it work with my email and chat apps? Yes.
