Todoist is a personal productivity tool for Freelancers and Small businesses, offered as freemium ($7/mo). Based in United States, founded in 2007. Popular alternatives include Sunsama, Things, TickTick.

About Todoist

Todoist is a task manager made by Doist, a fully remote company founded by Amir Salihefendić, who started Todoist as a side project in 2007. It is known for fast natural-language input, a clean design and apps on almost every platform, including web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, smartwatches and browser extensions.

Typing a phrase such as 'pay rent every 1st at 9am' creates a recurring task with the right date, and projects, sections, sub-tasks, labels, priorities and saved filters organize everything. Board and calendar layouts, two-way Google Calendar sync and task durations put work into time. Integrations connect Todoist with Gmail, Slack, Outlook and automation tools. The free Beginner plan covers five personal projects; Pro adds reminders, the calendar layout, many more projects and filters and an AI assistant that helps break tasks down; Business adds a shared team workspace with roles and templates. Doist also makes Twist, an asynchronous team messaging app.

Todoist suits individuals and small teams that want a reliable, cross-platform task list that stays out of the way. It is not a full project management tool, with no dependencies or resource planning, and the free plan's reminders and filters are limited. TickTick adds habits and a Pomodoro timer at a similar price, Things is a calm Apple-only alternative, and Asana or ClickUp fit teams that need full project management.
