As someone with ADHD, I often find myself focusing only on tasks I enjoy — thankfully, they’re usually work-related. However, I tend to hyperfixate on work and coding, which makes me forget about daily tasks and chores. Do you plan to include integrations that help with everyday utility tasks, like reminding users to wish someone a happy birthday or pick up the dry cleaning before the store closes?

Thanks for bringing this up @othman_kabbaj! Focus Buddy is optimised for all the above use cases. I realise I have made no mention of it in the demo video or the description. Currently Focus Buddy is also available on your phone it works exactly the same way on your mobile browser(Safari, Chrome, etc) as it does on a Desktop. A mobile is app is also coming soon. I do my morning routine with focus buddy. I usually have 5 or 6 tasks in my routine each taking about 5-10 minutes. I start knocking them out one by one and ask focus buddy to check in on me at the end of each task to make sure I am not distracted, lingering around, or doing something else. Finishing the tasks this way helps me build momentum for the rest of the day.

@othman_kabbaj definitely hoping that existing to-do list + co-working Flow helps with the everyday utility tasks. Chores like coding are just so much more fun. One of the big theses we have is, "If the AI understands what you have to do, it can create ways to make it feel more like a game," so that most other tasks (like writing documents) also feel like coding. That's actually one of the things we're planning to iterate on soon.

Thanks for asking @michacassola Currently, Focus Buddy learns what you are working on and what's done through A) Conversations when AI checks in with you B) You speaking out your thoughts as they come up. C) When you manually update the Todolist in the UI Updating todo lists and keeping track of work is now more like the conversations you have with your co-worker as opposed to a task that you allocate time for at the end of the day or work session. On our roadmap we are also considering screen capture to make the process even more seamless.

This looks really cool! Going to give this a spin to have much more productive work sessions, and hopefully I can delegate random tasks that pop up in my head to Focus Buddy.
