All Features
AgenToDo is a free task manager for Mac. Tell it what you need in plain language — or use it the traditional way. Your call.
The Command Bar
Type what you want done. AgenToDo shows you what it'll change. You approve.
That's the whole idea. No menus to hunt through, no shortcuts to memorize. Just say "move my dentist appointment to next week and remind me the day before" — and see a preview of every change before it happens.
- Works from any app with a global keyboard shortcut
- Voice input — tap the mic and speak
- Select tasks and say "flag these" or "move them to next week"
- Seven changes from one sentence, in two seconds
The command bar is powered by Setapp AI+. The app itself is free — AI features activate when you sign in with your Setapp account.
Eleven Ways to See Your Work
Different moments need different views. AgenToDo has eleven built-in perspectives — no setup required.
📥 Inbox
Dump everything here without thinking. When you're ready, ask AgenToDo to sort it — or do it yourself. No pressure, no system to learn first.
⭐ Today
Your tasks and calendar events, side by side. A commitment meter tells you if your day is realistic — so you stop overcommitting before it's too late.
📅 Forecast
What's coming this week, next week, and beyond. Tasks and events together, so you can plan ahead without switching between apps.
🚩 Flagged
The stuff that matters most. Flag a task in any project and it shows up here. Simple.
⏳ Waiting On
Things you can't do until someone else does theirs. Assign a person, and AgenToDo tracks it. You'll never forget what you're waiting for.
👁️ Review
A weekly check-in you'll actually finish. AgenToDo walks through each project one at a time: is this still relevant? Any next steps? Anything stuck? Takes five minutes.
📆 Calendar
Day, Week, and Month views. Drag tasks onto time slots to block out your schedule. See your meetings and tasks in one place — no more double-booking yourself.
📍 Nearby
Tasks that are relevant to where you are right now. Running errands? See what else you can knock out while you're out.
🔁 Changed
Everything recently modified, in one list. Especially handy after a sync — see exactly what just changed across your devices and shared projects.
🙋 Assigned to Me
Everything others have put on your plate, across all shared projects — in one place. No more opening each project to figure out what people need from you.
✅ Completed
Your archive of done work. Everything you've finished, searchable and browsable. Look back at last week's output, find that task you completed on Tuesday, or just appreciate how much you've accomplished.
Morning Briefing
Start your day knowing exactly what's ahead. AgenToDo sends you a morning notification — tap it to open a briefing window with your day at a glance.
- Tasks due today — what needs to get done, front and center
- Meetings lined up — your calendar events, right alongside your tasks
- Commitment load — are you overbooked? You'll know before the day starts
- AI insights — smart suggestions to help you prioritize (powered by Setapp AI+)
- Your schedule — pick the time that works. Early riser? Night planner? You decide.
Capture Anything, Instantly
The best task manager is the one that doesn't slow you down when an idea hits.
- Quick Entry — a global keyboard shortcut opens a floating window from any app. Type, hit Return, done.
- Multi-entry — press Shift+Return to add another task without closing the window. Brain dump mode.
- Voice input — tap the mic and speak. Dictation is transcribed either on-device by Apple's Speech framework or by our voice processing provider Respeecher. Works in both the command bar and Quick Entry, and supports multiple languages.
- Smart parsing — the title field understands
!flag,#tag,::project,@person,~30mestimates, dates like "tomorrow" or "friday", and repeats like "every monday". Matched parts move into real fields and leave the title clean. Works in English and Ukrainian. Date extraction is deliberately conservative — a bare date is only taken from the end of the title, so "Call Anna about the March 3 invoice" doesn't silently become due March 3. - Task URL — attach an external URL to any task for reference material — articles, docs, tickets, whatever you need
- Share Extension — share from any app (Safari, Mail, Notes) and create a task instantly. The shared text, URL, or email becomes a task flagged for AI enrichment.
- Inline attachments — paste images and files directly into task notes. They render inline, just like you'd expect.
Location-Aware Tasks
Some tasks only make sense in certain places. AgenToDo knows that.
Places
Save the places that matter — home, office, gym, that grocery store you always forget things at. Each Place gets its own icon and color.
Arrive & Depart Reminders
"When I get to the office, remind me to submit expenses." AgenToDo uses geofencing to nudge you at the right moment — arriving or leaving.
Smart Suggestions
Visit the same coffee shop enough times and AgenToDo notices. It'll suggest saving it as a Place — and if you keep doing the same task there, it'll suggest automating it. You always decide.
Privacy First
Location features are opt-in. A transparency dashboard shows exactly what AgenToDo knows about your movements. Export or delete everything anytime.
Meetings → Tasks
Meetings produce action items. AgenToDo catches them so you don't have to.
Connect Read.ai and AgenToDo automatically pulls action items from your meeting transcripts. Review what it found, edit if needed, approve — and they become real tasks in your system. Same preview-before-action approach as everything else.
Calendar Integration
AgenToDo reads your system calendars and puts events alongside your tasks — everywhere it matters.
- Week view — see your whole week with tasks and meetings together. Drag a task onto a time slot to block time for it.
- Day view — hour-by-hour timeline, perfect for planning a packed day
- Month view — high-level overview with per-day load indicators
- Commitment meter — shows when you've planned more than you can realistically do
- Drag-to-create — drag on the hour grid to create a time-blocked task directly. No detours.
- Honest blocks — tasks without an estimate draw as a dashed 30-minute placeholder. Set an estimate and the block draws solid at its real length.
- Calendar Sets — choose which calendars to display. Work mode? Personal mode? You decide. Sets are saved per device by design — they're a view filter over the calendars that device can see.
- Working Hours — define your available time so AI scheduling respects your boundaries
- Live refresh — changes in Apple Calendar appear instantly. No manual sync, no waiting.
Projects, Tags & Folders
Projects
Group related tasks together. Choose how they flow:
- Sequential — tasks appear one at a time. Finish one, the next shows up. Great for step-by-step work.
- Parallel — all tasks visible at once. Tackle in any order.
- Single-actions — a loose collection of unrelated to-dos. No sequence, no end date.
- Progress ring — each project shows a visual progress ring in the sidebar so you can see completion at a glance
Tags
Tag anything. Tags can nest: #work → #work/deep-focus → #work/deep-focus/writing. Filter by any level.
Folders
Group your projects into folders for big-picture organization. Folders can nest too.
Repeating Tasks
Tasks and projects that come back on schedule. Set a repeat rule and AgenToDo handles the rest.
- Frequency options — daily, weekdays, weekly, biweekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly
- Two modes — Fixed Date (repeats from the original date) and After Completion (repeats N days after you finish)
- End conditions — stop by a specific date or after N occurrences
- Natural language — type "every monday" or "repeat weekly" and AgenToDo parses it
- Repeating projects — clone themselves when completed. Structure intact, tasks fresh.
Bulk Actions
Select multiple tasks and act on them at once. A floating action bar appears when you multi-select — no menus, no hunting.
- Set due dates — Today, Tomorrow, Next Week, or pick your own
- Move to a project — drag a dozen tasks into a project in one go
- Convert kind — turn tasks into ideas or notes (and back)
- Assign details — estimates, people, locations — all in bulk
Basically: anything you'd do one task at a time, you can now do to fifty.
Widgets
Check off tasks and capture new ones without opening the app. Interactive widgets for your Mac Desktop.
Accessibility
AgenToDo works for everyone.
- Dynamic Type — text scales with your system settings across every view
- VoiceOver — full labels and hints on every element. Navigate your tasks, calendar, and sidebar entirely by voice.
- Reduce Motion — animations respect your system preference. No pulsing, no unnecessary movement.
Spotlight & Search
Every task, project, and tag is indexed in macOS Spotlight. Type a task title in Spotlight, click the result, and AgenToDo opens directly to it. No hunting, no switching apps first.
Siri & Shortcuts
"Hey Siri, what's flagged today?" AgenToDo integrates with Siri and Apple Shortcuts, so you can check in by voice or build your own automations.
Undo & Redo
Full undo/redo (⌘Z / ⌘⇧Z) for every action. Complete a task by accident? One keystroke to reverse it. Works across all operations — including AI-suggested changes. No action is permanent until you want it to be.
Task History
Every task tracks when it was created, completed, and last modified — right in the detail view. No guessing when you finished something or when it first showed up.
Database Maintenance
Big databases collect clutter — old event logs, finished agent runs, orphaned attachments, checklist items whose parent is long gone. File → Database Maintenance shows the counts and offers scoped cleanups, with orphaned items listed explicitly and per-row Restore or Delete. Cleanup thresholds are configurable. Back up first, sweep second.
Streaks
Complete at least one task a day and build a streak. A gentle nudge to keep moving — not a guilt trip when you miss.
AI — Powered by Setapp AI+
AgenToDo's AI is powered by Setapp AI+. One subscription, nothing to configure. Sign in with your Setapp account and it just works.
What AI can do
- Reorganize your entire week from one sentence
- Triage your inbox — suggest projects, tags, dates for new tasks
- Guide your weekly review
- Turn meeting transcripts into tasks
- Suggest Places from your location patterns
- Enrich tasks created from Share Extension with smart details
- Power your Morning Briefing with daily insights
- Read tasks aloud — audio is generated once per phrase, cached locally, and replays offline
What AI never does
- Act without showing you first — every change is previewed
- Change anything without your approval
- Run in the background — AI only activates when you ask
Without AI
AgenToDo is a complete, free task manager without AI. Every view, every shortcut, every feature on this page works without signing in. The AI makes it faster — that's all.
Privacy
- Your tasks stay on your devices — synced through iCloud, never stored on MacPaw servers
- AI is transparent — when you use AI, only the context for that request is processed. Without AI, nothing leaves your device.
- Location data is yours — full dashboard shows what the app knows. Delete everything anytime.
- Encrypted backups — database backups support optional password encryption, so your data stays locked down even off-device
- No tracking, no profiling — we don't know who you are and we like it that way
For Power Users: Command Line
If you live in the terminal, AgenToDo has a full command-line interface. Add tasks, check your inbox, manage projects — all from your shell. Learn more →

- Mac — full desktop experience with keyboard shortcuts, multiple windows, and widgets
Requires macOS 26 (Tahoe) or later on Apple silicon. There is no Windows, Android, or web version.
