Design breakdown / concept drawings

Talk freely. Find a little clarity.

The starting point: say what is on your mind, in your own language, without formatting a task first.

01 / Tasks

Dump what needs doing

Capture a loose thought, a spoken list or a larger goal. Clarify the resulting tasks and break down work into manageable steps.

The design choice

Capture first. Structure should follow the person, not interrupt them.

02 / Today

Decide when to do it

Bring the relevant work into today and give it a place in time. A smaller next step is easier to act on than the whole backlog.

The design choice

Tasks holds what; Today makes room for when.

03 / Me

Look back with kindness

Mood and reflection provide a place to notice how the day felt, beyond what was checked off.

The design choice

Reflection is a different activity from planning. Give it its own home.

01 / THE IDEA

What if a task list had a little empathy?

The starting point is ordinary, imperfect language. People remember things in fragments, change their minds, and need different kinds of encouragement. The character makes room for that personality.

02 / THE WORK

Inside the project

The organising idea is simple: Tasks is where you dump what needs doing; Today is where you decide when; Me is where you reflect. Bart adds an expressive companion to that structure. The screenshots below show actual app interfaces; the project website has current product information.

Speak, then clarify: The app turns natural language into a task and asks when a time needs clarification. — **Speak, then clarify**The app turns natural language into a task and asks when a time needs clarification.

Character design / interactive study

Then came Bart.

A task manager needs structure. A companion also needs a way to respond. Bart uses eyes and expressions to make listening, thinking and encouragement feel different—without filling the interface with more words.

Listening: open eyes make room for the next thought.
