The architectural difference

ToDo List treats tasks as a standalone checklist. MySamantha treats them as one part of a connected system, so your tasks and the context around them live in the same place.

Tasks that live next to the work they came from.

Subtasks, priorities, due dates, reminders and recurring work, in the same place as the notes, meetings and emails that created them.

Getting things done, made simpler.

MySamantha connects tasks to the rest of your day, with AI-powered scheduling as an option.

  • Turn words into tasks.

    Type or speak naturally (“remind me to pay the bill tomorrow”) and Samantha creates the task with date, priority and category.

  • Turn long plans into simple schedules.

    Dump all your tasks and Samantha organises them into a clean, realistic daily plan without you touching a calendar.

  • Reminders that fit how you speak.

    MySamantha understands “later today”, “after lunch” and “tomorrow morning”, and sets the reminder for you.

  • See what matters, not everything.

    Search by meaning, filter by priority, and get straight to the thing you're actually looking for.

  • Run both while you decide

    Many people keep To Do List going while they settle in. Bring existing work into MySamantha at your own pace.

Can I use MySamantha alongside To Do List?

Yes. Many people run both while they decide. Import tools and integrations help you bring existing work into MySamantha at your own pace.

How does pricing work?

Your plan pays for the MySamantha software. AI usage is separate: use supported AI access you already have, bring your own key, pay as you go, or turn AI off.

Do I have to use the AI?

No. Turn AI off and MySamantha remains a workspace for Notes, Tasks and Journal without AI features.
