An AI task manager that starts with priorities
Most “AI task managers” bolt a chatbot onto a list. AI Planner flips the default: the Eisenhower matrix is the home screen, and AI helps you get work onto that matrix — from free text, screenshots, and voice — without rebuilding workflows in Todoist, Notion, or another inbox clone.
What “AI” should mean in a task manager
Useful AI is not a gimmick sidebar. It should shorten the path from messy input to a trustworthy priority view. In AI Planner that means: parse a pasted Slack dump into several cards, read a screenshot into drafts, suggest urgent vs important, and keep an agent inside each task that already knows the matrix context.
What it should not mean: auto-scheduling your life without consent, inventing fake productivity scores, or locking core features behind a paywall during a demo period marketed as free.
- Text → structured tasks (batch parse)
- Screenshot → task drafts via vision
- Voice dictation → parse → quadrant
- Per-task AI agent with matrix context
- Approve-before-create on agent topic dumps
- Telegram Mini App + optional web account link and notifications
- CalDAV calendar sync (Google and other providers)
How AI Planner compares to Todoist and Notion
Todoist remains excellent for list-centric workflows, recurring tasks, and a huge integration ecosystem. Its AI and natural-language Quick Add help with dates and typed capture — not with a native four-quadrant board or screenshot drafts.
Notion is a flexible workspace: you can build an Eisenhower matrix with databases, AI summaries, and docs in one place. The cost is setup and maintenance. AI Planner is opinionated: prioritization first, capture second, documents elsewhere.
Choose AI Planner when your bottleneck is triage — “what matters today?” — and inputs arrive as chats, images, and voice. Stay with Todoist/Notion when your bottleneck is project databases, team workspaces, or deep third-party automation.
A day with an AI priority matrix
Morning: open the matrix, clear Do, protect Schedule. Midday: paste the messy thread; review agent proposals and confirm the drafts you want. Before a call: skim the board instead of scrolling five apps. Evening: move leftovers honestly — Do, Schedule, or Eliminate — so tomorrow starts clean.
The AI is a drafting partner with approve-before-create on topic dumps. You remain the decision-maker on priorities. That keeps the system trustworthy when models guess wrong on urgency.
Pricing honesty: demo period free for now
AI Planner is in a demo/testing period: full product access free for now, no card required. AI requests share a fair-use daily quota. Manual planning never depends on that quota. If paid plans appear later, they will be announced clearly — no surprise paywall on the matrix itself during the demo.
FAQ
Is AI Planner a free AI task manager?
During the demo period, yes — full access free for now with an honest AI fair-use limit.
Does it replace Todoist?
For people who want a native Eisenhower matrix and image/text capture, it can. For heavy integration users, Todoist may still fit better — see our comparison page.
Where does AI run?
Parsing and agent chat call the configured model backend under your account’s quota. Topic-dump drafts apply only after you confirm.
