The problem it solves

When a task comes to mind, opening Notion and typing it out properly is friction you don't always have time for, especially on the go. Good ideas and to-dos get lost because writing them down formally feels like a chore.

Who it fits

Anyone who wants to capture tasks the instant they think of them, without opening a task manager.

How it works

  1. You send a text or voice message from your phone
  2. AI transcribes the message if it's audio
  3. AI reads the message and works out the task title and any due date
  4. A new task is created in your Notion database
  5. You get a short confirmation message back
What you get

Tasks captured before you forget them

You get a properly titled Notion task created the instant you send a quick text or voice note.

What you get

A new, properly titled task in your Notion database, with a due date if you mentioned one.

What you need

A Notion account, an OpenAI API key, and a messaging app connected as the input channel.

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.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
