Hi Product Hunt! I'm Mario, and I built Tisty on my own.
I wanted somewhere to keep my work that wouldn't vanish when I ticked it off, and that I'd still own if the app disappeared.
Tisty keeps your documents as Markdown files and your tasks as plain text, on your own disk, for Windows and macOS. It's free and open source (AGPL), with no account, no server of mine and no telemetry.
A few things that make it different:
Finishing a task doesn't delete it: it moves to a searchable archive with its steps, notes and files, so months later you can find how you solved something.
Type «call the bank tomorrow at 3» and it becomes a task with a date. That's done by rules on your machine: there's no AI inside.
Documents can grow into books with pages, diagrams, formulas and their own PDF.
Sync is optional and goes through storage you already own: a folder, Google Drive, OneDrive or WebDAV.
If you use an AI assistant (Claude, Cursor, Copilot…), it can file tasks and write documents in Tisty through a local MCP server. It never deletes anything; you confirm.
Where does the know-how from your finished tasks end up today?
Software out of conviction, not subscription.
