Todoist Quick Add is going multi-modal! A leak and a small demo 💦 Team is cooking! 🧑‍🍳

We’re teaming up with some of the world’s best icon designers to create beautiful new icons for Todoist. Most users will never care that much about this, but they will feel it. As software becomes easier to build, these intangible details will become a critical way to differentiate yourself. It’s like a great restaurant: the food matters most, but everything else also shapes the experience.

AI is giving software companies massive leverage. One response is to reduce headcount while maintaining the same output. Another is to keep building and attempt things that previously required a much larger company. At Todoist, we’re now 108 people, the largest team we’ve ever had. We’re also taking on two major new challenges. One of them is Todoist Automations. Without AI, we wouldn’t have attempted it at all, because automation is an incredibly hard problem to solve well. Yet our research and customer feedback revealed a huge gap: many customers want to automate their work, but only around 10% actually do. The opportunity is enormous. We’re approaching it with the same craft we bring to Todoist. The entire interface is built around natural language. On the engineering side, we’ve created a workflow engine that can run automations affordably and at scale. And it won’t be limited to Todoist. People will be able to automate work across Gmail, Notion, Outlook, spreadsheets, and many other tools. I’m not sharing this to promote what we’re building. I’m sharing it because it’s a concrete example of what AI is making possible and what I expect many software companies will do next. The result for customers will be far more choice, much stronger competition, lower prices, and rapidly improving software. And because almost every industry now runs on software, the impact won’t stop at tech. It will raise the productivity and efficiency of entire markets and society as a whole. --- And of course, this would not be a full post if I didn’t include a little leak of the direction we are going! 😁
