The problem it solves

You keep tasks in two places because your team prefers Todoist while your planning lives in Notion, and manually copying updates between them means things fall out of sync. Tasks get marked done in one tool but stay open in the other.

Who it fits

People and teams who manage tasks across both Todoist and Notion and want them to stay in sync.

How it works

  1. On a schedule, it checks Todoist and Notion for task changes
  2. It compares the two lists to find anything that has changed or is missing
  3. It updates each tool with the other's latest task status
  4. It keeps a record of what has already been synced to avoid duplicates
What you get

Task lists that always match across both apps

Your tasks stay matched between Todoist and Notion automatically, so an update in one place always shows up in the other.

What you get

Matching, up-to-date task lists in both Todoist and Notion.

What you need

A Todoist account, a Notion account, and a Redis database for tracking sync state.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
