The problem in their words

People keep tasks in many places, from planners and notes to messages and emails sent to themselves, and some "can't remember where" their other lists are. Some sit down every morning and "rebuild my to do list" from memory and scattered notes, while others say they are "not knowing what's coming up" and get stuck not knowing where to start. Too many lists makes some people afraid to even look, so they avoid the list and lose the day.

If you tested it

A headline for the page: “All your tasks in one list, and today's plan ready each morning”

Test first: The riskiest assumption is that people will connect their scattered sources to one tool; a landing page shows it if visitors sign up to bring in their notes and emails.

  1. Build a one-page site that names the scattered-lists problem and asks visitors which places they keep tasks, with an early access sign-up.
  2. Share it in productivity, self-improvement and discipline communities where people describe rebuilding lists or losing track of tasks.
  3. Treat it as a yes if a meaningful share of visitors sign up and pick more than one task source they want pulled in.
