ZenTask started with a problem I was having myself.
I had a lot of things I wanted to get done, but I didn't have a simple way to organize them, keep track of what I had accomplished, and know what still needed my attention.
I started building ZenTask to solve that.
One thing I found especially useful was being able to organize my work into hierarchies of any depth. Instead of having one giant list of todos, I could break things down however made sense to me, goals into projects, projects into tasks, and tasks into smaller tasks when necessary.
But then I ran into another problem: organizing the work was itself taking too much work.
That's where AI came in.
Instead of spending time figuring out how to structure everything, I can simply tell ZenTask what I want to accomplish in plain language, my raw intent, and let AI break it down into actionable tasks and organize them for me.
From there, I can plan what I want to accomplish each day, track my progress, and see what I've actually completed. And if I don't finish something today, it doesn't just disappear into an old todo list, I can carry it over to another day and keep going.
The idea is simple: your tasks shouldn't be another thing you have to manage.
I built ZenTask because I needed it myself, and now I'm putting it out there to see if it can help other people too.
I'd love to hear how you currently organize your work, what you struggle with, and what you think ZenTask could do better.
